I was wondering if there is a way to search for members by state? I live in south Florida, and wanted to see who else lives close by. Thanks Mark

Thanks for the info

Does my 2007 RSTD have 4-way flashers? If so, how do you turn them on? Thanks

Foots, can you explain more? I'm confused. Thanks

Thanks for the help. Mark

Thanks Dr. bar! Mark:cool10:

I want to buy and install a cigarette lighter on my 2007 RSTD. Does anyone have any ideas where I can pick one up and where is a good place to mount it. Any suggestions/information would be most helpful Thanks Mark:fingers-crossed-emo

I just got a 2007 RSTD after owning a 2008 Harley Lowrider. I love the RSTD and I'm getting used to it. One thing I miss is the 6th gear on the Harley. It was a true Overdrive. MY RSTD seems like it is over reving when going about 70 in fifth. I also miss the tach that was on my Harley. Trying to get used to the strange mosies it makes, whining, and such, which I was told was normal. The Harley made noise too but I had Vance & Hines Big Radius pipes which were noisy. My wife sure likes the new RSTD, was really looking for a Venture but the deal I got on this 2007 with just 8200 miles was too good to pass up. I know it has much more pick-up than my old Harley did and it handles sooo much better. I'm one happy camper with my Yahama! Mark

Hello Mark Thank you for the request. Below is the information you requested. I was going to return your call but it's still a bit early on the west coast at this time. I will follow up with you shortly. Now for the information overload. There is a little bit of reading here but I just want to make clear the area needed to be covered. The whole upgrade isn't a bad job to do. I can do it in less than a day if I can stay on it which doesn't happen much. The Bar: Made by Flanders are near copy of the stock OEM bars that are on the RSTD with the exception of the pull back dimension is 2’’ longer will bring the grip area closer to you. In most people it will relieve the nagging pain that you get between your shoulder blades on long rides and some feel this upgrade makes the bike handle lighter. Though you can get by with the stock throttle, brake and clutch lines it does pull on them a bit . Some choose to replace the throttle and Hydraulic lines when they do this upgrade. Yamaha also recommends the rubber lines be replaced every 4 years. Our custom made SS line kits are a one time fix you'll never have to go back a change them. The kit contains replacement lines for all the rubber hydraulic lines on the bike with the exception of the lower clutch line. The lower clutch line is not replaced because you can't see it and the working pressures on the clutch are much lower than the brake lines. The line kits are made with extra length needed for the Flanders upgrade and the rest of the lines are made to fit the RSTD. This kit is not a generic fit all kit. It's made to fit the RSTD and only the RSTD. Grips: The stock OEM grips can be used with the Flanders bars but you will need our bar end weight mounting kit to secure the OEM bar weights to the Flanders H-bars. One complaint I have heard about the stock grips is the diameter is a little small. I found some closed cell replacement foam sleeve that install over the grip area of the grips. They just have to be trimmed to fit. This are a very popular add on for those that want to keep the OEM grips. They do work rather well. Best thing is they don't cost a bunch. I think we have covered all the items now. Below is the quote for all the items above. If you need it I can help. *************************************************************************************************************** Handle Bar Conversion Parts List for 05-08 YAMAHA ROYAL STAR TOUR DELUXE 1300 Custom Made Custom Length Push & Pull Throttle Cables These Cables are Made by Barnett The cables come in two styles standard black cover $88.00 per pair.

Rick

Has anyone ever see what the top speed of an RSTD is? Just curious. Mark

I had the alarm on my Harley before I got my RSTD. Pain in the butt. The alarm wasn't loud enough to scare a flea. I also had the monitor that you carry with you. Never carried it. That's why I have insurance. I guess if your really concerned about your buke being stolen, I would invest in the Lojack..every thing else is, New York Crickets".

Thanks Scott... Mark

What's the meaning of first and seconf generation of RSTD? I assume the age right?

Hey thanks for all the great info. Mark:banana:
