I did a lil' measuring for bags on my 1500 classic. I get a 22" length that is possible before I have to relocate the rear blinkers. My question is who has what size bags and make on their classic without relocation of their blinkers. thanx !!!!!! 8)
Here is my question. What aftermarket seat sets you back 1-2 inches and wont raise you higher than stock? This pertains only to the 900 classic. I am leaning toward a solo seat as I like the look. I searched the site and found one review about the Mustang that raised the rider up and moved them...
Do I really need that 90° bend on the valve stem on the rear tire? Got a 1500 classic with spoked wheels. Sure looks like I could go with a standard tube instead of the prv78 (or whatever it is).
finally got the fairing on, it's a bob dron. no paint yet but it came out pretty good i think.
Curious as to what size tyre i can fit onto the back of my 1600 Classic?? it's got about 10,000km on it at the moment (6,000 miles) not really due to be replaced yet....... but i was looking at it when i washed my bike the other day and it looked like there was very little space there to fit...
Well, I installed my saddlebags on my custom friday night, we rigged up the brackets and everything ourselves... my buddy welded up some brackets but the bolts i used were too long and had to use quite a few washers so Im going to need to replace them pretty soon... anyway, the one on the left...
I have ordered the air filters to do my Caddman setup on the air system....... plus i am going to marble and remove the air injection system on it over the weekend. The 2.2k resistor isn't a drama, it's only about $1 to purchase....... but i was curious as to whether it would be better to install...
Anyone Who Is Interested In A Stock 900 Custom Airfilter, Mirrors,front Fender And Handle Bar, Let Me Know I Am Selling Dirt Cheap!!!!!!!!!!
I like the green color of the '08 Custom (although I'll always go with black myself) and found the perfect car to "match" your bike. ...
Just wanted to share pics of my new ride. I haven't had a bike in over 20 years...Its great to be back...08' 900 Classic - Memphis Slim 17" - Saddleman bags - Classic fender emblems - Chrome hub cover - more to come I'm sure....I hope I did the pics right...Yes, I've labled a "newbie"
While riding recently, I've begun to notice an unfamiliar noise on my Vulcan. When I am at full throttle, there is a high-pitch squeaky mechanical noise. I don't know how to describe it otherwise, but it definitely sounds mechanical and not like a part squeaking/etc. Any ideas what this might be...
I ordered a pair of these because I haven't been wearing my FF helmet because the heat is just too darn hot. I have been getting debris in my eyes several times so I started looking on the net for some riding glasses. I want to share with you what I feel is a great deal. I ordered them from...
Hello all, I have an 06 VN900 that is basically stock.. Only added the fuel gauge resister fix and added a 12v accessory plug. I never paid attention to it before but I noticed tonight my left blinker, flashes faster than my right. When I noticed this I figured I screw something up with the...
Has anyone here put a dry nitrous kit on a mean streak or any other EFI bike? I am looking into this for my mean streak and looking for opinions and advice.
I just got hold of the new 2" billet handlebar risers I ordered from Leroy-Thompson Choppers in Ohio and they're amazing!!! It will be tough to see the old Choppers Inc. Six Gun risers go, but it's time my bike had a make over. This time I'm going for short risers with tall handlebars instead of...
I posted this in the Mechanic's Corner, but I want to get as many responses as possible. Please don't slam me for the double post. Just more people here than the others. Ok, here we go. 1996 Kawasaki Vulcan 800 Classic Custom Chrome 72-81 Harley Hand Controls
My rear tire has over 10,000 on it and the center tread is just about gone. I ordered the ME880 for the rear. Heard some good things about it. Now I have to get it mounted before the PA forum ride. Should have just enough time to get it on.
Sitting around on Sunday morning trying to contemplate the days activity and I figured I'd make a ride up to Mount Baker and what would a ride be without a few pictures to capture the moment. (really, from the lower area, you can't see Mount Baker, the upper parkinglot is closed off due to snow...
I was just curious when u all pack ur bikes for a rally or a long camping trip, where do u pack your tent?? I've done it several times but just want to know how everyone else does it. I usually tie it up to the backrest, but this year I have luggage rack with some bags to haul more stuff so I'm...
