    Had em on my Suzuki Marauder and loved them.

    could also be your kickstand being moved around when you hit a big bump.

    Is there one available for my 2005 RSTD? Yamaha doesn't show one, didn't know if one for a Vstar or Roadstar might work?

    I don't know anything about it, but I would hate to reward someone for being able to copy someone else's work.

    That's too bad. Got one of his hitches, works great and he was quite the hoot.

    I'd plug it and ride it.

    I'm running 32 lbs in my BFG, nothing really to report. It just keeps going and going...

    My bike rarely ever sits for more than a week. It is my primary commuting vehicle, so no it hasn't set. Hope to get a chance this weekend. It is running great, just a surprising drop in mileage. Added some B12 carb cleaner, hopefully if there are any carb issues, this may help.

    Well I was in Alice Springs in 08 for Anzac day. Was pretty cool.

    My last two takes of gas, I have only gotten about 30 mpg in my 05 RSTD. I have consistently gotten 35-38 as long as I have had the bike. Changed plugs and air filters last year, oil is good, nothing different in the bike or riding styles. Took a laser thermometer to measure the exhaust pipes right where the come out of the cylinders. The front two, which are hard to get a reading on because of the shielding, I think I got ~250. The rears I can see the actual pipe and got ~650 on each. Wondering if I just haven't gotten a good reading on the fronts, or if I am actually having some firing issues. Will pull the plugs and check, but wanted opinions on exhaust pipe temperatures.

    Wouldn't think so. I bought a set of brackets from the classifieds on here from a fellow member and modified them to fit my Memphis Shades fairing.

    Gonna share where?

    I"ve got a 155/80/15 BFG Radial TA on mine. Discount tire ordered and mounted it for me.

    If your going to start a poll, you should also includes those that have tried and like the darkside. I'm not going back.

    Have to disagree about storage with the time out. When set up there is a ton of storage inside the camper. There is an entire section with nothing in it. I also store stuff under the bed when set up. Lots of room.

    No difference in handling, but your hands will really appreciate it, especially in the winter.

    I replaced the clutch spring on mine with a PCW racing spring. Pretty simple to do and will eliminate any slipping issues.

    and I did install a very quick locking system because I was worried about it. Shouldn't have been as it has never moved while installed.
  20. tsigwing
    Why? Because it was cheaper to add a quick release fairing to my bike than to buy a new bike. That and I like to tinker.

    You would probable have to measure them, and even then it would be close since they are only 1/4" different in lengths.
  22. tsigwing
    You should be fine. I added some 55w aftermarket lights, heated grips and heated vest during the winter and never had any issues. Should also add that my stock battery lasted until this year (5 years) and didn't actually crater, just one day this summer when it was really hot, and I stopped and restarted it in a short span of time, it had a hard time turning over, so I bought a replacement to not get stranded. I have a short commute to work (8 miles) and typically don't rev the motor real high. YMMV.

    I drove both the Challenger R/T and the 2011 Mustang GT and I liked them both, but the wife like the Camaro the best. I liked them all, and probably the Challenger the most based on styling, but it is definately the slowest, unless you step up to the SRT8 and it is quite a bit more expensive.

    With the All Season tires I had put on, Stabiltrak and traction control, it will be an all weather car (I hope). That or we all stay home when the weather gets too bad

    My son is turning 16 this weekend, so he is inheriting the 1999 Jeep Wrangler that I use for bad weather transportation. I am getting my wifes 2004 GMC Sierra for my bad weather vehicle and the wife got... Its a 2011 Camaro SS/RS SS2, manual 6 speed with sunroof and factory Hurst shifter. Not a bad little commuter.
