Gary what a great trip, I'm so sorry to hear Mary got sick. Same thing happened to me and Jen on vacation a few years back, a quick stop for some food a few hours later she was bent over stuff was coming out of both... well you know the rest of the story. Wish Mary well from both of us and have a safe trip home. George&Jen

Looking forward to any updates you can provide Gary. Pictures if you can! George

Caring less about how I look, more if I survive...

Had an accident almost 4 years ago to the day, went over the bars into a windshield and onto the pavement on the other side of the van that you guessed it turned left in front of me. I had an armor equipped jacket on and I'm here to say all my injuries were lower body. Maybe armor jackets aren't as cool as leather but they are number one in my book when it comes to picking out riding gear! By the way I like the yellow! -
Hey Wally sounds like mine less the Khrome Werks exhaust, never bothers me.

Could be a goose in there somewhere hiding. Otherwise its kind of hard to pinpoint but I'd say its in the air intake system somewhere. Its not a mechanical kind of noise, if I pull in the clutch it doesn't make any difference. Its not that noticable or worrisome just curious to what it could be.

I've been reading about a couple other noises and it got me thinking about my 06 RSTD and the kind of honking noise it makes when its iding higher than normal cold with the choke half on. It has a kind of rythem and is not there once I shut the choke off and its at a normal rpm. Any ideas?

Ok all you rstd folks
YamaDude replied to starkruzen's topic in Royal Star and Royal Star Tour Deluxe Tech Talk
here are a few pics of my 06 RSTD at the dealership just before I bought it a few weeks ago. Since then I have changed the exhaust tips to the Khrome Werks turn downs, put the original height Cee Bailey tinted windshield and lowers on and added chrome reservoir covers. The guy that had it before me me didn't leave me much to do, I'm pretty happy with it, well for now anyway... -

Wow Gunky that thing looks very cool, I love the pipes bet it sounds great too! -
Wow sorry to hear about that, and I thought the wind blew hard here in southern Ontario...
-
Well here is a pic of the job. It went perfect, I used many of your suggestions and wanted to say thanks!

Funny I just went from a Harley to a Royal Star and now I feel all grown up!

I agree that could easily be a beutiful cycle again. Probably $4500 would do it, replace the seat (keep the tan though) probably tires and a major tuneup and your in business. Hope someone here gets it!
