when I first got the big blue I hated the heat when it got 85deg and hotter.
I put on lower vents and it helped alot at least it seams that way to me . the more I ride this bike the less the heat bothers me. I love this bike.
I just picked my 07 venture up for the back wheel clicking. They found the rear axle was out of line and the splines needed grease ,It was all cover under warranty
I was looking at the clear view windshields on the site it talked about a 18" windshield I do not think I could see over the 19.5 shield. Could anyone tell me if the vent closes and if you think it was worth the money. does really let enough air through to make a difference. by the way I am only 5' 8" tall that way I think the 19.5" would be to tall.
I post thing like the weather bad, Did not get bike on time and every thing was not just right for me.
Then something like this happens. It will really put thing in prospective.
My hart goes out to family's and students.
hay Freebrid you said something about keeping the rpms up and to down shift to 4th to accelerate at 55 mph. I am used to a v twin, I had a road star up to last week, is that safe to do. Maybe that the noise I have been hearing.
