Just bought a v rod and love it.They do handle well at speed but crappy at low speed maneuvers.The tank is under the seat which helps a lot.Lean angle also sucks at 32 degrees and the exhaust weighs 28lb making it pull to the right with your hands off the bars.They can be made to go like stink...

I could do that in my sleep..........i mean dreams;)

You are not listening,the RCMP stated that the officer had to have reason and state that reason for detaining me Immediately.The RCMP also said I could press the issue If felt the need but strongly advised against it unless I changed my plates and painted the car as I would be targeted without...

That was 27yrs ago and the son on the head of the Essex County RCMP who was a passenger in my car took control of the situation as I had a cop trying search my car for fun.You could not be stopped randomly at the time they had to have a reason to pull you over.It's a fact I was the driver.The...

It used to be that they couldn't pull you over without reason such as seeing you without a seat belt,expired tags ect.You had the right to ask why you were stopped and they would have to have a good reason before inspection.Americans are appalled when they get pulled over in Windsor for nothing...

You had witnesses? If so you can charge her and make it stick.Have her carted away from the house and jailed,her car is a weapon after all. Of course there's always the tried and true lay in wait then BEAT DOWN method,always give it a few weeks as it makes it extra terrifying when they recognize...

One thing I am noticing is when hot there is a slight jolt when letting out the clutch in first.Typically this happened on all my other bikes and cable adjustment at the clutch at the lever would fix it.What do you do on a hydrolic clutch?Had a friend tell me it could also be oil related(too...

Yes I do,good call!The bike is de baffled (v mod)and a little loud but sounds awesome.I'm also a little worried it's running lean but will look in it soon,either go back to unmodded stock pipes or have it tuned if not done already.The service rep says It wont cause any harm to the bike unless...

I'm not a brand loyal kind of rider and could care less who makes my bikes.I really like the v-rod, the links Myztyk dropped and the other replies are enough for me.The only thing I really dislike about the v-rod is the cornering but then again It's a straight line bike.After signing all the...

Thanks for the heads up.I have to agree with everything you guys are saying.The issue is I really like the looks and am trying to weigh the pros and cons.The Harley dealer is offering me $100 more for my C50C than I paid for it two yrs and 20000km after bought it and doubt I can fined a deal...

Thinking of getting a v rod.Anybody who has or had one please chime in I need opinions.Also looking for opinions from anyone with saddle time thanks

Get off the bike at the next light and start licking their window

Very sorry the hear about your friend. I'm all in with Jenn on this one.You cant live your life thinking about the what if's.You have one shot at your existence so you need to make it count.Your life can end at any time be it a stroke,heart attack ,slipping in the shower or a bike accident it...

I use the flash to pass on stop sign creepers and my stock head light can melt the plastic off most cars at 200 meters

Oh and the 07 c50 was 6500 at the dealer and I paid tax on 6500 as well And I know for a fact you only pay the difference on a trade as i was about to sign a deal in a v-rod at the dealer last fall for the c50 plus what carman says sounds real familiar and all deal were in the last 3 years.I...

Well The last two privet sale bikes i bought was an 83 midnight maxim and i paid the taxes on purchase price.Then there was the 07 cbr 125r last November. paid 1000 for it and was taxed on 1000.They don't know if it was dropped,crashed or show room new and didnt seem to care the OD was at...

^^^exactly in fact all parking gates these days come from the factory with big stickers on them.I work on the gates at a hospital where all lots are gated.Many lots will cut the gate arms short so a bike can enter and exit without having to go threw.Yes you still have to pay but you can ride...

I was told by a mechanic that running the bike with lower back pressure will move the power band higher because of reduced savaging effect at low rpm .He explained that an properly engineered exhaust will actually clear the gases from the cylinder in pulses.The speed of the leading gas pulse...

A 16yr old kid can walk into the mto write the m1,get on any bike he can afford and away he gooooooooooooooes.I've seen it done and it didn't end well.In fact that was two weeks ago and he's lucky hes not dead.Way to much bike for an inexperienced mind let alone rider.Now it's gone and he has...
