Sorry but True... When I worked at the dealer I would get a bad taste in my mouth when I see a Cadi drive in. Always had ghost in the wiring system,Transmissions slipping,Blown head gaskets,oil leaks every where on most of them,motor mounts are fun too...NOT Helping your friend out is the right thing to do:innocent:. I also helped a few friends out myself in the past. But there were times I wished I dint.

Would someone know the paint code for a 2006 RSTD? The paint is Pearl White. Had the O'reilly's man use his paint scanner on the saddle bag and it came up with White Gold?? he said it was not the right color?He said I have the Two stage paint $$. He also used his little color folder as well trying to see if he had a color match No luck so far:(. he said he would keep this on file and see what he can come up with later?. Also asked The local Yamaha dealer for help as well, and they could care less.. one reason why I do not buy from them anymore...... So anybody have a Good Paint Code I can give him?? he said an automotive paint code would be better?? He said motorcycle paint codes do him no good?? I don't now why he said that?? Guess his computer doesn't carry Motorcycle Paint codes?? Reason I'm asking is my Mom bought me a new after market H.D. Fairing for my Birthday last month. And I have a Venture trunk I been saving, glad I dint sell it now. Anyway I want to add these to the RSTD and I hope I get a good color match?

http://www.jmcorp.com/ProductDetail.asp?ProductID=JMCB-2003-DU&PF=24 If you read the fine print, it does not include the head sets-wiring-brackets-CB antenna or coax cable ETC. So your looking at more $$$$.. I too am looking at this package deal as well..

You guys can keep them..... I hear those things every night here on the farm. I get more enjoyment hearing them sing... I remember my cousin used to cook those frog legs, and there were times he would have one jump out of the frying pan. it was funny too my sister would get sick seeing that.LOL frog legs almost as bad as calf fries...

I ran both sets Venom & Elite3. Both handle the dry roads, tire noise about the same. pretty close on tire wear as well. But the Venom can take the curves better than the Elite3 and when it comes to wet roads the elite3 give me some movement on tar snakes to where the Venom stuck like glue. So I have to lean toward the Venom for better grip & wet traction...hope this helps.. just wish the $$ was not so high....

I use the ST7317 long filter so far I been very pleased with it. I have cut several open after each oil change so far everything inside held up really good, unlike fram which seems to split and fall apart over time... I used Wix 51358 & napa 1358 filter which are both the same filter just different labeling,good filter never had any problems using it on my cycles . But I stayed with ST7317 filter just as good and half the price too. cant beat that..

I had the 88 GL1500 model. nice bike at times I wish I kept it.. it was payed off LOL. Anyway main reason I sold it was due to the knee's, the 88 model dint have much leg room and the way the crash bars are set up on the 88 model the foot pegs put my legs way apart I mean way apart. But it was very smooth riding bike very easy to handle and the GL1500 motor was bullet proof too. Really Loved that motor. GL1500 is a slower bike but it has a smoother ride, more load capacity and more luggage room than the GL1800. he will have many of miles of enjoyment on that GL1500......

There goes the neighborhood....

I looked at Yamaha - HD - Kawasaki - Honda - Suzuki - Etc... Several reasons I came back to the RSTD is the XVZ1300 motor - bullet proof motor!!!! Next to the Gold Wing this motor XVZ1300 with proper maintenance. will run 300,000 with out a major overhaul Wont see a HD motor do that.... Another is the Cruise - I love the Electronic Cruise control!!!!!! Plus being two bikes in one. Cruiser & Touring bike all in one... Good Luck Oh and remember to Post some photos too..... Welcome to the Family Adam WELCOME.........

Guessing this is at a dealer and is a left over bike, right? Unless I'm wrong you will have the 5yr warranty & unlimited miles warranty ..I would try and get them down some more If I could Think my Credit Union valued my 2006 RSTD at $9,400.00. Before taxes I bought mine with 9,968mi for $6,700.00 not trying to be mean or anything about the price I paid, BUT I don't have the 5yr warranty either. They were wanting $7,849.00 and I talked them down to 6,700.00 so you may have a chance on getting your down some more? I would try for 8,000.00 if not 9,000 is still a good deal cant touch an 2010 RSTD for that price!!!!
