Got a pair of great sounding Indian Chieftian mufflers for sale here in the classified ads. They will fit and they are new take-offs.

"How fast is too fast", when your eyes can't see fast enough. Years ago on a Kaw. that was around 140 mph.

He was a rider and a jumper that's enough for me.

Glad your back on here with us kinda tired of reading all this Tech Stuff and stupid fixes all the time. Always enjoy your perspective on here.

I'm riding an 08 S/E Ultra Classic no seat vibration at all handle bars a little when setting still wife loves it. 110cu of raw stomping get away quick power.

I can tell you haven't rode a Harley lately. I've also owned three Honda Goldwings an 86,91 and a 95. Never got use too the setting position. Big heavy bikes ware you out around town with a passenger on road fine for trips with extended pegs.

Well since we got all the trash out of the closets leaves room for more useful items. Just my opinion and thoughts on this subject.

Through almost 50 years of riding the roads on two wheels various motorcycles I've learned and accepted one important thing, "Man must know his own limitations on two wheels."

I had a 71 Triumph 650 Boneville had rear brake on left and gear shifter on right. That bike pulled like a tractor a bundle of torque in those days. Made a street flat tracker out of it a joy too ride.

Ha man-up get over it . Better than a crankcase full of gasoline.

They already know why, its a cheap simple design that doesn't necessarily make it the best design for an air cooled motor. I had no problems with one oil I my Venture, but I see problems in the long run with the Polaris Indian.

Freebird if you are riding an air cooled Harley, stick with much better motor than Polaris Indian. Indian engine oil is also the transmission and primary too which is bad for an Air cooled engine. Oil is contaminated 50 miles after its changed. Whereas Harley has separate oil cases. I think transmissions need gear oil anyway.

Recondos or Lerps never die; They just fade away into the darkness!

Yea, that's an Indian Chieftian which I have in the classified section on here. Take a look at it.

All Indian Roadmasters I've seen come with tour pacs and front lowers.

It usually takes two to make Road Rage at least that's the way it is here in NC.

Sounds like Road Rage 101 to me. What do You'All think?

Hey, just heard they give a promotional $2000 on all Harley and Indian trade ins. I'm personally beating a trail to the Yama dealer in the morning and get my name on the waiting list.

Definitely been cut and foot welded back on. Probably welded with stainless steel rod and polished.

A 1700cc VMax engine in a 03 Harley Ultra frame which was a Willie G and Eric Bruell design. Best of both worlds performance and handling my dream machine. Well off to bed still got too hash out the final drive shaft or belt.

Definitely contact Yamaha factory reps and let them know about this with documented pic's while it is at the shop. Glad you got a good handful of clutch or it could have been catastrophe for you too.

Hang in there Puc, pushing 68 myself my goal now is to age without growing old. Also, would like too do 80 mph at eighty and 90 mph at ninety on two wheels of course.

You can just change back to the original height dog bones and leave the caliper in the lower position. This would give you the option of either setting. I prefer lowering both front and back which levels the bike for better low speed handling characteristics. Also, leveling your bike stops scraping your mufflers. These bikes are too tall in the saddle and top heavy anyway. Most people who lower both front and back never go back to the original height.

So far I've gotten three bikes from RideNow of Concord NC. Last one 2014 Indian Chieftian which I'm bonding with now. They will come off their price if you have the patient and resolve.

Tick , Tick, Tick and Tock........
