cabreco Posted March 6, 2012 Share #1 Posted March 6, 2012 I just wanted to thank the Ventureriders for all of your help in bringing out the jem in the ratty old bike I picked up Christmas eve. Without your knowledge & help finding parts, there would have been NO WAY I could have pulled this off in just over 2 months. - Thanks again!

(famous last words) I broke drown & picked up the Progressive. My front end occasionally clunks when I stop quickly so my neurosis kicked in. A big part of the decision to move the install up was due to your praise of Earl & the setup you got from him. I think Skydoc owes you some advertising royalties Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Rev'n Ahead Posted March 6, 2012 Share #8 Posted March 6, 2012 VERY NICE! I bought "our" bike (gotta include SWAMBO) on Dec 27th. My wife's Xtmas gift to me was a card with "permission" written in it - I'd been looking and quietly begging - I'm hoping to have mine ready to ride for the end of April after taking the MSF at the beginning of April. Insurance is gonna bite for the first year cuz I have to get a "new" license as my previous license expired many years ago - and in a different province/state. and, around here, we wait until the roads are cleaned of the sand/salt before riding - a layer of sand is lousy to try to brake or turn on... CONGRATS ON A NICE BIKE. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Skydoc owes you some advertising royalties He's paid me two-fold with advice and information. You will really enjoy the progressives. I am still in awe with the difference I feel. Good luck and enjoy ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am still in awe with the difference I feel. Good luck and enjoy ! OMG KIC, you were right, these progressive are UNREAL! I slapped them in & went for a ride. The bike is responsive, nimble (for it's size) and most of all I don't feel that apprehension I felt with the old springs. Definitely a great upgrade!
