    Buy (used) in fall or spring?

    Best prices are after September all the way to Feb, then when March hits it's Spring Market. Buy now for next season, even better into deep October/November.

    Who's got a Virago 1100/1000?

    This morning I just parked beside a brand spanking new Honda CB1100, the bike looks totally retro with chrome fenders and all, so you got a vintage looking bike with new tech from Honda. With 1140 cc on something looking so light that's allot of power in this puppy. The bike looked sweet, if...

    Who's got a Virago 1100/1000?

    Buy the Honda...Shadow or the VTX, bullet proof reliability. I like wrenching here and there but not every other week man, it can make you sick with frustration. Bikes are best when they just run for miles with your regular maintenance, and you should have confidence in it that in any given...

    no value for bikes still?

    Yep Keep it realistic, and go with a bill of sale, when you go in with a retarded amount the tellers take insult to this. I usually go in with a few hundred dollar value there-for pay around 30-40 bucks. Keeps them from looking up on the net and getting management involved.

    Bike keyed!!!

    No riding pants or anything like that, as I mentioned the scratch is deep to the base, could be my mechanic scratched it on the last visit. Anyways if it was not intentional it makes me feel better. So anyone know a place that does a good fill, colour and top coat for small area jobs like this?
