    Now that is strange I'm 6'3 and my RSV fits right under me flat footed, the GW has enough room between me and the seat I could add a bed pillow under it.. not sure if the GW I sat on had stock saddle or not...guess it could have been wider....not sure ,just know I fit my RSV....but it is still heavy as you know. thats the hradest thing i had to get used to was the weight coming off 0f a Warrior

    guys i have read the post and have decided to join in..... i have a 2006 RSV... It is all stock as far as seat, shocks, bars etc.... I am 5'5" tall and 168 lbs... I can sit on my bike with my feet flat on thr ground....I can add pics if you wanna see. I completely agree that a bike should "fit" and there are things that can be done to most to make one do so. Having said that it sounds like the guy that fell over that was mentioned at the beginning of this thread had other issues besides stature. the guy on the Dyna saw the water and freaked as mentioned earlier. btw....I cannot touch on a GW , but have no desire to do so... my 2c....

    Thanks guys.... seems they could have had a better plan but whatever works. Love the bike so far...went from a hotrod 2002 Yamaha Warrior that was incredible in performance to a lot more comfort. old bones need soft seats !!!!!!

    ok before I ask I already feel really stupid..... When checking the engine oil onmy 06 thru the little sight window should the oil level be between the lines when it is leaning on the stand or when the bike is straight up and down ? I am going to assume until one of you guys enlighten me that it is while on the stand...since you can't hold the darn thing up whilst standing on your head to see the window hidden behind the frame tube. Thanks for the help....more dumb questions to come. Kenny

    Being in the boat business we run into the ethanol question a lot.... here's the skinny a model T ford engine or any other gasoline engine will run on ethanol fuel... the problems are the fuel lines, tank liner material etc... ethanol/alcohol breaks down these components and eventually shoves the little pieces and goo into the carb or injectors.....henceforth killing the engine it would not/could not just automatically shut one down no matter what brand of bike even if it was a harlhondzuki or a real bike like a Yamaha Venture even a first gen.....lol...come on guys its a joke.

    I am fairly new to the site however, I have had several motorcycles and usually try to find a site for that breed. I must say the folks on here are EXTREMELY knowledgable about these bikes, even the first genners (jk) ..... Now if I could only have someone tell me how to set the radio stations it would prove my point. It is a great site and I look forward to meeting some of you. Kenny

    I was exiled (jk) to Oklahoma City for 6 years and rode in all the crap while there... I just maintained normal speed and grip a little tighter and be prepared to lean and weave
