We've traveled the BRP/Sky Line end to end several times. We both love it. Bad knees and vertigo moved me to a trike back in 2014. Vertigo and two wheels can get real interesting. We miss the two wheels but we love the trike as well.

Hey Steve, Glad to hear your ride went well. That is a great ride, the wife and I did it a few years back. We started in Front Royal and rode down all the way to Maggie Valley. Turned out to be one of the hottest weeks of that year so we took a little beating from the heat but I would do it again if I get the chance. we've been talking about a trike but just talk at this point. Enjoy the trike Ride safe Bill

The front caliper that I put on the rear was the original two piston caliper off of the front of my second gen. Ron

Haven't really done any maintenance yet on my RSV since I got busy working on the truck and other things, but managed to ride the SVTC and RSV for the last 2 days. 43 degrees this morning and it called for a little bit of heat on the grips. Tomorrow is bonding time with the RSV.

Many years back I asked the Yamaha reps at Bike Week in Daytona what that was for and they told it was a deflector to fuel that could get spilled, it supposed to keep the raw fuel off the hot engine parts. It is supposed to be on the left side, One of the bikes on display that year someone had put it on the right ride, when I pointed that out to them they got all red faced and took the bike off display to fix it, the next day it was back with the deflector on the correct side. I also know that the wire part of that is there to keep you from putting your leg on the valve cover, because if you wearing shorts and your leg touches that wire, you pull back before you can close to the valve cover, it gets plenty hot.

I know Im a year late, but if you look under the drivers floor board you will find an ajusting bolt. You can adjust the Hannigan boards down just enough to allow room on the crash bars to mount a set of kuryakin off sets.
