  1. Thanks guys. The roads in the pictures looked pretty cracked. but that is what I am used to. How long is the Gravel part of the Road? and about how long was the journey on Cape Breton Island?

  2. So you are saying that once onto the island head up the west side to the northern most point then turn and head south?

     

    Also. Is this the cliff riding, being from Maine and all, i would love to see cliff riding!!!

  3. Was considering milling a waterproof gps mount for my gps. but than i would eliminate being able to use it without taking it from the case.. I found this on amazon.

     

    I have a nuvi 200w. Use it in my car all the time. and dont want to purchase a new gps just for the bike. What do you think?

  4. My father has a RSV 1999 and I just bought a wrecked 2000 RSV (starglide). I have it almost road ready (cant get my saddle bag open, going to try to get the pinch pin out, and need front fender, but is rideable.) He is over 50 and as well is my mother (they ride together frequently). I am 19 and my girl is 19 as well. We are planning to go on our first "big trip" as a family.

     

    I plan to leave my hometown (now Orono, ME) (UMO student) and head for Bar Harbor, Maine and hop on the Cat and blast across the ocean to Yarmouth, Nova Scotia, then to halifax and then up to PEI (to look at a vet school for the girlfriend and check out the sights).

     

    Here are some questions i have for those who have been or know anything about the area. What are some good stops? roads? cities? events? or awesome highways. i hear there are highways that go along cliffs by the ocean. This to me would be freaking awesome. Also hotels? Main concern is a good ride on GOOD roads. Being from Maine, i am used to the ****iest of roads, cracks, ruts, and sand everywhere. So for those who have traveled you know what the best riding is. Curvy, hilly, smooth and wide (like my women).:ignore:. So any help planning this trip would be great.

     

    Thanks again.

     

    Also looking for some parts.. radio switch (left handlebar peice), front fender. Pipes, dad had some nasty's, and they rusted in one season (cheap ass pipes) though they sounded awesome. Can anyone direct me to a link where the HD pipes are installed and a possible how to, and parts needed to complete this conversion. thank you

     

    since i took off my trunk (the top was broken) i have parts available off rear of bike

    trunk rack, trunk bottom, interior trunk pecies, trunk latches, cb, truck mounting rack, passenger back rest black, and basically everything attached to the trunk.

  5. Hey new to the forum, have been on other forums. Glad to find this one. Anyhow.

     

    Looking for an undamaged front fender. I was a bit curious about putting a Kawasakids drifter fender on there but probably not. (anyone do this?? pics) Don't really care about the color as i am going to paint my venture this upcoming summer. Also i am removing the trunk. It would be great if the front fender didnt' have holes. but if it does i can fill them. Thanks.
