They are retraining him how to let go of those antequated 1st gen's and become a modern rider (on a 2nd gen)...

Work fine for me ... getting the right ones and at the right position make all the difference. Then again, maybe I'm one of those "little people" LOL

What's really dumb IMO ... is that the "standard" model doesn't even have self-cancelling turn signals ... ?????? (but it comes as an option on the deluxe model which also includes a centre stand ... doh?) Having said that.... I think it's frikkin RAD! :happy65:

Welcome aboard Luke! While tx2 offers some good advice, after reading about your CB550 project it would seem to me that you really enjoy "rebuilding" things and more specifically, a scoot. My advice is ... stick with your passion if you can. btw... what are you taking in tech college? (mechanics maybe?) -
now there's a "six beers" one for ya... LMAO!!

I've said this before but ... it would seem that CTs work well on some bikes and not on others. On my Wing, the CT out performs an MT in all conditions with one minor exception and that is riding along those parallel "high/low" ridges. On those you can feel it wanting to "wiggle". This is very minimal and has no adverse effect on handling. I have no hesitation pushing the scoot in high-speed twisties. You'll find that most darkside Wing riders will have similar comments. The RSV on the other hand has a totally different frame geometry as well as a totally different centre of gravity / weight distribution. This quite well could be why under some conditions (such as high-speed corners) that the CT on the RSV might leave a person feeling uncomfortable and loose confidence in the CT. (just my Canuck loonie's worth)

Where else are you advertising it? Have patience... it's not a seller's time of year.

FWIW, we won't be doing a Kruis'n Kootenays in 2013 (unless someone else takes it on) so having a Venture West might be a good idea since there hasn't been one for a while. Not sure if we can attend but I'd bet some of the gang who've attended KK might attend VW. I can provide the attendee list from the last KK (back in July).

SilvrT replied to gamberch's topic in General Tech Talk
I believe they discontinued the 5 yr warranty in 2012 ... to a 2 yr warranty but maybe you can get it extended to 5 yr for a price..? -
Two weeks ago (Oct 8th) we went for a ride up to 2 of the local ski hills. The weather was warm and beautiful. You need a skidoo to get up there now!

My wife offered.....I turned it down. AM I CRAZY?!?!
SilvrT replied to BigLenny's topic in Watering Hole
Look at it this way .... at least your wife suggests "things" to you in the morning (while you're both laying in bed ... which is the BEST time BTW) ..... mine sleeps! -
