    Busta, I just put new Avons on my RSV that i bought from Competition Accessories in Ohio. The date on the tires was oct of 08. I even went to the trouble of mounting them myself. When I got done I put Dynabeads in front and back to balance, now the bike handles and rides better than the day I rode it home this spring from the dealer. Couldn't be happier.

    After 8500 miles on the stock Bridgstones I replaced front and back with Avon Venoms, couldn't be happier. Replaced the back tire two weeks ago and had a slight vibration when I pulled the clutch in and let the throttle go to idle at 50 mph. So this week I installed the new Avon front,(after reading Goose say he mounted the tire himself,I tried it too.) put Dynabeads in both tires, now it is smoother and handles better than brand new! My vote goes for the Venoms.

    Just my two cents, ALWAYS pass on the left side. Nothing made me madder than someone passing on the right or even worse the shoulder. And when you pull out to pass -----get it over with. Then get back in the right lane after you get two seconds ahead.

    I use a Purolator pure one 14610 (hope that is the right #)It is a little longer than the stock filter but it fits perfect and the reports all say it's one of the best filters out there. Currently using Shell Rotella T 15-40 oil will try Mobil 1 next change to see if the chirp goes away a little.

    I wear a pair from leather-up also, and I couldn't live without a heel shifter. When you want to shift fast, I find I can do it faster and smoother with my heel. http://www.leatherup.com/p/Mens-Motorcycle-Boots/Mens-Western-Style-Heavy-Top-Grain-Leather-Boots/42191.html

    Go with SGN's link. Price isn't too bad either. Sounds like another dealer that doesn't know what he is talking about!

    Some of you probably have seen this, but it was new to me. Check out the V-Max trike, seems like an odd combination but still looks pretty cool:cool10: http://thekneeslider.com/archives/2007/11/20/tilting-v-max-trike-by-tilting-motor-works/

    Don, glad to hear you got your scoot back, can't imagine being without mine. I didn't like how bright my brake light was either and pulled the bulb and replaced it with one of these. It just plugs into the brake bulb socket. At least twice as bright now. Just a two minute install. http://www.customdynamics.com/Yamaha_tail_retro.htm

    My 09 rsv already has the clutch lever "squeeking". Might be a good idea to get a little grease in there huhhhh.

    Hey Freebird, just wondering if I paid in the right spot:confused24: Just watching for that great "Supporting Member" tag by my name, and havn't seen it yet.(not wanting to bug)

    Always ride, as long as its above 40 and not raining when I leave. Didn't see any more bikes than normal however. I do love that ride home!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    I think I'm starting to get the trl. bug. That fourth picture in the dark is awesome!

    Awesome pictures. Wish I could do a trip like that this year. I'm jealous!

    And where would one get a centerstand if one was so inclined to not want to bend over or use a mirroror or get upset about the oil sight glass anymore? (thanks for the responses)
  21. aspen60
    Okay maybe it's just me being stupid, but how am I suppossed to check the engine oil when I'm alone? Does everyone just balance their bike with one hand and bend over,almost standing on their head to see that little sight glass that doesn't show any oil until the bike is standing straight up and down! Just my personal rant:headache: Surely there is a better way to check my oil.

    Just looked at my two week old RSV, sure enough, I could tighten both screws a quarter turn. Must come from the factory that way. Just a newbie to this site but already see how helpful it is. Thanks!

    From the album: My new quit smoking reward

  25. aspen60
    New to the forum, hope this comes out okay. I quit smoking six weeks ago today (after 29 years) cold turkey, it was very hard. I was upset about the recent tax increase on ciggs, then I got to thinking. Two packs a day, 5.50 a pack, thats over 300.00 dollars a month, just about enough to pay for a new motorcycle! and yes I take delivery on my new 09 RSV this coming friday. So the ciggs were a little easier to give up than I first thought. I hope you can quit again, reward yourself with somthing, it makes it a little bit easier.
