Ya what he said

Found One, they are as scarce as a smooth running Harley

My son's Shadow seems to be running hot on the rear cylinder. I rode it the other day and why would the front cylinder be cooler than the rear. I think maybe the rear carb is running lean. Any thoughts?

We were going to have some friends come with us to Leakey for the Fall run, but they have things that came up. We have room for one couple on Friday night to Saturday. Its already paid for but you would be responsible for your own meals, although looking at who is coming, I have a feeling there will be plenty. Just PM me if you are interested. Brian

To: Anyone heading to the Leakey Run next week, there is a cameraman that takes action shots of you along the twisties, I think the website is something like www.txmotofoto.com

I guess that decked out V-Star Deluxe 1300 is the closest we are going to see for awhile, although I swear it would be so easy to convert that V-Max motor to a touring application http://www.starmotorcycles.com/star/products/modelhome/672/0/home.aspx

Click on the secret button by right corner in the Star Motors page. See the new RSV-SE with the fuel injected 1679cc V-Max motor and GPS/Bluetooth...........................oops it isn't April 1st:stirthepot:

I am contemplating buying a Rivco Center Stand for my 06 RSV. I miss the ability to park the bike like I did my old 1st Gen. $350 is a lot, has anyone put one on? Is it worth it? How much difficulty lifting onto the stand, can my back handle the lift? Too many questions.

I like the thought of a pair of Bluetooth Helmet Headsets with the Bluetooth converter for those with the Venture/Goldwing intercoms.

I posted a link to that 2003 cranberry/gold for under 3 grand in Houston. See the links to classifieds. Not the low miles that your looking for though.

Craig You did fantastic on your updates. If you ever get back that way, then do the northern route. On I70, just west of the Eisenhower tunnel, there is a turn off to highway 9, along Dillon Reservoir, this takes you along some excellent twisties on Highway 40 through Kremmling and Steamboat Springs. Before you get back into Utah, you can either take a road (318) north at Maybell that goes up to Flaming Gorge Reservoir, or continue straight on 40 to Dinosaur National Monument. You can turn right in Vernal up to Flaming Gorge and do the Mirror Lake Highway or Interstate 80 into Park City and Salt Lake from there. Or stay to the north and do Grand Teton/Jackson/Yellowstone. It is a completely different trip/view than Southern Utah/Colorado, but absolutely beautiful. Now I wished I had more time off to do it myself.

Good One

OMG, It's starting to grow on me, and they said that they have another reveal on 1 Aug. What else are they missing in the Indian line? [ATTACH]86086[/ATTACH]

I agree that to get everything that Indian has packed into it, there is very few that come close. Polaris made a nice bike, although the front fender even if it is true to the Indian tradition is ugly

I'm Not interested in owning one, but it looks crazy fun to take for a ride once. [ATTACH]86007[/ATTACH]

http://www.polaris.com/en-us/slingshot Well I guess we will see on July 27th. I pulled up by one of the T-Rex's one day, 300 lb Samoan sitting in it and it still had crazy acceleration. He said he had won it in a contest.

Never Mind, I found it on the site. I thought I had seen them here before. Now I just need to know who's bike it was on. This is kinda what it looked like[ATTACH]85745[/ATTACH]

they were on each side of the fuel cap, wished I could have taken a picture

I pulled into the local Sea Island shrimp joint the other evening and parked next to a RSMV with an LED light system and a strange set of gauges on the gas tank cover. The LED wasn't anything that I am drooling over, but where do you get the gauge pack? It looked like a temp gauge and tach, but since it was too dark to get a picture of, I can't be sure. His alarm system kept chirping at me if I got too close and I couldn't find the owner inside. Any ideas? I have seen a lot of RSV's but nothing like this, and it was professional looking, not homemade.

I meant Kick Starter (darned autocomplete)

Saw this on Yahoo this morning, I have tried the Zero Motorcycles before and they are a rocketship for short rides and enduros and such. I wouldn't want to ride one on the freeway though and I think that is what Harley is looking at. I wish them well, although where do you get louder pipes for an electric bike? http://news.yahoo.com/harley-davidson-introduces-electric-motorcycle-115943100.html

I found this at a pawn shop for $60 and love the fit. Very heavy though. Zip out liner and zipper vents in chest,sleeves and back.
