  1. Sounds a bit worse than mine...but I did enjoy the ride!
  2. After using the Utopia I will be making every effort to keep it! Very nice backrest!
  3. I was thinking more along the line of adapting the backrest with a square insert somehow!
  4. I did a ride similar to that in the Rockies last year. It wasn't 80 deg but it was warm and the snow in the pass was knee deep but the roads clear. All the mountains were still well covered and against the blue it was a marvelous sight! I was hoping to get another shot at it this year but I don't think it will happen.
  5. Any you guys heard of someone trying to make a Utopia backrest fit in the Corbin dual tour?
  6. Good on them...nice story!
  7. Installed Iridium plugs...checked air cleaner...all four pipes get hot hot hot!
  8. Good question. I have noticed a small vibration. But it does seem to have good power.
  9. I know several people in northern Ontario with it and they are very pleased. I think a high efficiency electrical fan is a must. They say it's the best air conditioning they ever had as well. The Ontario government was offering a very large rebate at the time a couple years back...
  10. You guys using regular or premium? I always get a gas smell in my garage after coming back from a ride, what's up with that?
  11. Post your thoughts about the install when done...I'm on the fence about a DIY install!
  12. I want to be better lit up and seen. I been thinking of Passing Lamps and the install. Which ones did you go with? Are there many options?
  13. Perfect!
  14. Could someone post what the RPM's are at 3rd gear @ 40 mph, 4th gear @ 50 mph and 5th gear @ 60 and 70 mph as indicated on the speedo...I'm just curious! thnx
  15. I got nothing to say to that...just a head shaker!:scared:
  16. I can't get to 290 with reserve...
  17. What's normal for Hwy riding at about 120 to 130 kph before using reserve? I've been getting about 220...then have to switch to reserve.
  18. I don't even know what the neck bearings are! Where's the FAQ?
  19. That's what mine is doing! Will let out a couple lbs...thnx
  20. It does indeed turn easier and quicker but I knew that and expected it. That's not it. I mean it seems harder to keep a straight line. If I want to stay in the left of the lane and not be moving toward the shoulder or the middle, it's tougher now! Stock size Metzlers front and back!
  21. I took out my new tires for a spin. Big difference from the stock Bridgestones. Seemed like the bike was much easier to keep a straight line before. Now I find my self struggling to stay in the lane? Is that a pressure thing or just cause they new? I'm running 38 front and 42 rear.
  22. Thnx man...you been a big help! Does that thing just plug into the RSV or is there cutting and splicing involved!?
  23. You think it's the same as this one? http://canadiancruisercustomizing.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=7&products_id=6
  24. Do you have a link to this Electronic Flasher?
  25. Electronic Flasher? Is that different than the load equalizer?
