i used a stock horn from a honda valkery with the stock yamaha horn. i mounted it right behind the stock horn and just used 2 jumper wires from the stock horn.it also adds a little chrome and is loud enough to scare the s%&t out of the old people down here.

crystal river area has good camping at natures campground or many others and also the ozello trail ,like the dragon only flat.only 11 miles but lots of twistys and a great seafood resturant at the end called the port cove.also agree with the brooksville area,i ride it almost every weekend.

big red - that's interesting that you also notice how you have to push your 2000 into the turns like my 2001. So the Dunlops changed the handling? How was it before with what brand tire?
If it is not the tires then it appears that Yamaha made some sort of change between 2001 and 2007 which makes my 07 begging me to scrape the floor boards - but I'm still too cautious (chicken?) but my 01 tells me to slow down and take er easy old man!
i had metzler 880's on before. and it handled REALLY bad. however they had 17000 miles on them. i also road my buddy's 07 and i agree, it handles MUCH better than my 2000.

my 2000 also seems to '' PUSH'' going into turns and i have 3 week old dunlop e3's.even last night at a local race track where my riding club got to do 5 pace laps at 60 mph. but the 07 that was with us didn't have that problem.and the hd's seemed to be running full out even in the banking.

after 3+ years and 55000 miles on my rsv, i only heard it come on once. and that was sitting in traffic on speedway blvd. in daytona last october bike fest. but i'm glad it did, the harleys were pulling over to cool off and big red just kept going.

does it work with nitrogin ????
:confused24::confused24: -
i had a very simalar problem with metzlers on my 2000 rsv . it did go away after about 1500 miles. how ever it came back if the pressure went below 38 lb.just got it out off the shop saturday and had new dunlop e3's installed. WOW it's like a brand new bike again.no more metzlers for me. also no more wobble , at least up to 100 mph.

i have metzler880's on my rsv with about 14,000 miles.they still have fair tread,but the handling went away about 1,500 miles ago. it tends to get very loose in cornering.i've always kept the air pressure at 40lb.rear and 38 lb.front and mostly ride 2 up.
