  1. [ATTACH]79580[/ATTACH]well got tired of the noise so I took the wheel off myself and removed the clutch hub found some interesting wear (see pics) wear on the wheel at 12 o'clock to 6 o'clock clock wise wear on the hub was at 6 o'clock to 12 o'clock so I lubed every thing rotated the hub 180 degrees and reassembled so far no noise
  2. as a motorcycle mechanic I would not recommend a head light modulator it taxes the charging sys to much over time plan on a stator and regulator. check out this alternative here is a link I sell these and I am a user ( is there a commercial in there some where) http://www.hyperlites.com/ Rider838 2012 RSV 1996 1200 custom 2003 sv1000:
  3. Ediddy you must know my wife but she want's to ride and the bike has to be right. yes the dealer is not the sharpest what's worst is I have my own bike shop and this work is under warranty for five years what do you do. Just going to wait for the area rep and see what happens Rider838 2012 rsv 96 1200 custom 2003 sv1000
  4. bought a new 2012 rsv 0 miles off the show room floor 689 miles into ownership and the noise started in the read diff as stated earlier on the slow roll to a stop took it to the dealer there was not enough oil in the diff to cover the bottom of the pan. dealer filled with new oil 2 days no difference bullitain says to loosen the axle nut loosen the 4 diff bolts and tighten the axle nut the tighten 4 diff bolts still no change ordered new rear diff dealer installed it 120 miles later same noise was back. also carb over flow lines were routed in the wrong place allowed fuel to drip on the inside the left lower leg the fuel destroyed the abs plastic. now i find I have no oil pressure warning light. now at 1700 miles starting to worry about having bought a lemon Rider838:confused24:
  5. I am a bike shop owner and have had 3 different bikes with ct's really enjoyed the ride. just purchased my first new bike (RSV). so with warranty issues I am not going to change yet. But I have a number of customers that have gone over to the dark side and are very happy with the ride and the ware mileage increase. With all that being said normal conventional driving is the safest beyond that only the emts know for sure. Rider838 2012 RSV 1996 1200 custom

  7. I think option 4 would be better lol hyper makes a set of lites that will give you running lites blinkers and flashing brake lites http://www.hyperlites.com i Have these on my bikes they are much brighter and very intense. I have a bike shop and sell these to a lot of my customers. they also make a set of hyper white for the front an an alternative to modulating head lites Rider838
