I certainly could have chosen a lot better wording and I have changed that as well. I hope you make million of dollars selling your products and I hope you continue to keep making products that improve the brand.
I lose site of the captiol investment and BS&T that go into products transforming...
Funny thing is the "other" site is a discussion only board and they offer no competing product(s) other than information. 99.9% of the time when your name or site come up on the "other" site it is the regulars pushing newbies your way for ECU reflashes and other services/products you offer. In...
I bet you will find the factory Pirelli tube is split at one of the seams. Mine split at 677 mile and I know of another local V7R rider that also had the same problem .
My V7R canister fell off the bike when it only had 7/10ths of a mile on it. Then the number plates, faux leather trim, fly screen, wheels, gauge cluster bracket and rear fender ;)
Have you ridded the bike when it is up to temperature and enjoy the same results...no pop, pop, pop? Mine is fine for about two miles, once the exhaust heats up and I leave off the throttle it sounds like I light a strip of black cat fire crackers and threw them behind the bike.
Exhaust is not...
1. Pull the bleeder valve the whole way out and make sure it is not plugged.
2. Go to the auto parts store and buy a vacuum brake bleeder. Ther run about $30 but well worth it.
I just finished bleeding the brakes on my V50 earlier this morning. Some of the metal hoses were gummed up and so...
Perazzimx,
Tungsten washers aren't available in sizes anywhere close. Is your offer to cast some lead weights still open?
Joe
Joe,
Offer is still valid. Check your PM's
Your mechanic would fall over if he saw the really floating front discs on my Ducati 900ss. Thy probably had 2mm of fore/aft movement 20,000 miles ago.
Its a dry clutch! Its going to make some noise! If you want the noise to go away buy a bike with a wet clutch.
You can put Redline Heavy Shockproof, Holy Water, Cod liver oil, unicorn blood or whatever else you want in the transmission and it will not quit down the clutch.
If by chance...
I sold my 143 HP Ducati 848 to fund my V7R. Peak HP numbers are something as I get older I tend to disreguard. I like the seat of the pants dyno.
You can read all you want but you need to find a bike to test drive. That will tell you if the V7 series is a good fit.
Also there was a 2012 V7R...
Re: V7 picture thread
The gauge lowering bracket is Todd's the fnder eliminator is from Cafe' Twin in the UK. The rear turn signals were $15 arrows that my local shop had. I don't like them but unitl I find what I am looking for they serve the purpose.
I also made a wiring harness that plugs...
The one thing I know about my local geography is there are 10 parts stores within 5 miles that have barbed tee's and hose clamps you need. Again PM me you or your dealer address and I will get two 1/4" x 1/4" x 1/4" brass barbed tees and six 1/2" stainless steel hose clamps in the mail to you...
Vivo,
Before we jump to conclusions and think he has a bad dealer, maybe he is a bad customer? That why I would like to hear the dealer side before we get the torches fired up and the mob gathered.
Hell I think we are all at fault for buying into this thread as it really does stink of Troll.
