    2007 RSTD

    Did you get them through Buckeye? I'm wanting a set for my rstd. Been following this thread. Let us know how they work out please.

    But isn't that the whole idea of an overdrive? Cruising at a lower RPM to get better gas mileage., and less wear and tear. I don't mind kicking down a couple to get to the guts.

    I have the Bubs also and love the back-off rumble. They are much quieter than the Hard Krome Double D's I had on my V-Star 1100 when rollin' down the highway, but they really open up when you hit the RPM's!

    Zooer I can relate to that! What worries me is one day I'll be commin up our gravel driveway and lose it and there'll be no one around to help me! At 56yrs. and 5'9" the TD can be a challenge. But some day I'll trike it. Never gonna let it go! Brenda H. you might like a V-Star. I just traded mine for a RSTD and was much easier to reach the ground on it. Didn't have a luggage rack so I just strapped my travel bag to the passenger backrest and set it on the back seat.

    The hubby and I have been doing some trading in the last two weeks. I went from a 2005 V-Star 1100 Silverado to a 2007 Royal Star Tour Deluxe. He went from a 2004 Vulcan Nomad 1500 to a 2005 Vulcan 2000 (he had to get something faster than mine!). So here are the final results:

    This is mine, don't have any of his on my phone. 2007 RSTD. His is a 2004 Nomad, will post it later.

    The closest Yammer dealer to me is 143 miles, in Springfield, MO. I'm planning on taking a road trip there Friday and will check on the warranty coverage. Meantime I conquered two problems today! Cruise control is fixed! Narrowed it down to the front brake lever, and before making any adjustments, I removed the tassels. That did it! Cruise works like a champ! Also the choke wouldn't move, and while visiting the dealer I bought it from today, they took a look at it and said it was just hung up. Lubed it, and now it works! I think my first purchase is going to have to be the wind deflectors for the lower fairing. Lots of heat in there needing to get out! The Yammer retail for them is $200! Anyone know of a less expensive way to go? Thanks to all for all the helpful suggestions! Continuing to enjoy my ride!

    I was wondering about that too. I purchased it from a local dealer whom I assume bought it wholesale as he told me it wasn't a trade-in. How can I find out the in-service date?

    Hey Trader don't let one bad egg spoil it for the rest of us trial members! I've only been on here two days and have gained valuable information. In addition I'm getting a feel of the atmosphere of this forum and it's members. And I like what I see! Pretty sure at this point I'm going to enjoy being a paying member real soon. And I agree, $12 is pennies to pay for the experience!

    Thanks, found the manual. Looked at the levers and the clutch lever may be the problem. Looks like there's a screw head pressing on the switch. Not sure if that's adjustable or just a screw backing out. Going to look closer in the morning when it's not so sweltering in the garage! I'm on vacation now until July 9th so planning on putting on a few miles and getting more accustomed to the weight difference. That is if I can stand the heat! Thanks again for all the great info. This is a GREAT forum!

    Dacheeda, That link was for a v-star 1100. I'm needing one for the '07 Royal Star Tour Deluxe. Please repost, and Thanks!
  13. TDsRSTD
    Thanks all! @Dacheeda: appreciate the link! Getting to work on that. @captainjoe & Stache: I live in the country and our gravel driveway currently has some major ruts towards the bottom end. Gave me a bad scare pulling in. So the TD is in the garage until the neighbor smooths that out for me this weekend. As soon as I get it back on the road I will try your suggestions. Didn't see the flashing yellow light the first time around, just the green solid one. @TDunc: Was going about 75 so tassles could be an issue. Guess my User Name wasn't so original, huh?

    Greetings! Just traded my 05 V-Star 1100 Silverado in on a 07 Royal Star Tour Deluxe, my dream bike! One problem, when I test drove the RSTD, I was in traffic so didn't test the cruise control. Then my husband goes up and buys it for me (a total surprise!), and he didn't try it either! So now I finally get it out on the open highway and when I slide the control up and push the set button, nothing happens. The indicator light does come on, but that's it. And to keep the payments down, we bought this without a warranty. I know...live and learn. Any ideas? I also didn't get an owners manual, so any leads on obtaining one would be helpful.
