Just kidding....I want a backrest, but it has to be removable. I won't be bidding on this one.

Don't you have to cut into your stock seat to use these? I heard you did, so I've avoided them.

Another tire question
quinnjim replied to jeff2053's topic in Royal Star Venture Tech Talk ('99 - '13)
I just spent the last 3 days researching this (here and elsewhere). You can't go wrong with the elite 3. As far as front tire size, most guys who put the smaller front tire on rave about it. After looking deeper into it, I think the stock Bridgestones are so bad that ANY other tire seems to be a lot better. The 130 tire will make it handle better at slow speeds, and will make it a little sportier. The larger tire will ride better over rough surfaces, and may be the better choice if you don't ride your bike like it's an R1. It's really hard to research tire threads, since there ar so many. Some of the older ones (from a couple years ago) were the most useful, but it takes a long time to find them. -
My screen still says that I expire in 9 days. Will I be eligible for the extra 45 days, or did I just miss it?

I'm new to the site, and I'm not sure if I'll join or not. I am a member of 3 different online forums, all of which are free. The Yamaha Motorcycle Forum is a great resource. I agree that 15 days is too short. There's a lot to look at here and, even though it's only $12, I have to figure out if I want to start paying for internet forums. (Yes, I am that cheap)

Hello everyone. I'm brand new here. I have a 2006 RSV, and it's nearly perfect! I am thinking about getting a shorter windshield for summer riding. I love the big shield when it's cold, but I would like to feel a breeze when it's 90 degrees. I was wondering if anyone could give me feedback on the shorter shields. I'm 6' tall, and I'm looking at either a 6" or an 8" windshield (measured from the front where the chrome meets the plastic). I'm mainly looking for guys (about my height) that have put on short windshields. I don't want to get a bunch of buffeting around my head, but I would like to "feel" some airflow. Thanks for any info.
