why did not the cops/police think about the same methode to arrest us when we drive too fast?

Excelent protection from the rain (all year rider)

totaly agree with it too!

i have had double bubble screen on my bike (before breaking in an accident...) it was very good , as for me, for driving long time in high speed without beeing tired too quick...

You can easy find one at 50% shop price on ebay!!!

Hi thank you for this answer. i think i've all well anderstood. just "if i ever burn out the gear" i didn't find how to translate... And i think that "im only ballanced because of the gear tension" means that your are slighty increasing your speed and just a little ° under the e...

sorry i think there is no use changing rear tire size for a 190! you will just loose maniability...
Then you won't be able to follow any 900 cbr on a little road...

Why do you want to change it?

Pete L The balance point... i can easely find it when i drive 2 on the bike, but when i'm alone, i'have to put my bike up very high to travel distance (as 400m the goo days...). My friends told me that it's easier to keep balance standing up on the pegs (rear or pilote pegs as everyone prefere). The...

hi RQ, i send you a private message when i came back on VTR 1000.org Why would you want to go to a French VTR site, sure there would only be French people there.......... Hey, you can see my english is still far from perfection! :o :lol: :lol: But there are also very interesting information on the f...

hi! i didn't come on this discution board for a long time since i found the same in french (easier for me...) Is this subject talking about wheelies? Getting up in 3rd is possible without clutching up but as for me, you need to stand up on the rear foot pegs (i even manage it but not a 12oclock of c...

Hi,as for me you can't increase HP like on a RSV1000. I believe that the hp is max around 108-110hp. some modification in carburator are possible, new cans can also help to increase HP
But i'm not 100% sure what i'm telling you.
Oliv

The max i've done is 280kph but it took a long time between 260 and 280, may be 4 or 5 km (arround 1minute or a little less). but i'm not sure i'll manage to do it again.

Hi Simone T! I live in laval! :!: might be that i know your cousin especially if he's got a bike? Tell me if you come in Laval. :wink: Yes in france there is a 100bhp limit. i think i don't break the law in spite of my KN filter and my mig exhaust which give me perhaps 3hp more. those wheelies looks...

I'm not sure i've anderstood your question. but i can explain you, if you want how to take off the forks since i made it 3 weeks ago. it's just a question of time if you want to do it yourself, and you'll save money (more than you think...). i'm far to be good in mecanic, that's why i think you can ...

Stormin ben told exactly what i mean and think. just one difference, he speak english better than me...
Furthemore, 650svs prices are dropping and becoming more accessible 2 years ago. There is lot of good opportunities.
Think about it...

Oliv

I disagree with speedfreek. As for me (and my friends think it too) a 500 is too little. a good size to begin is 600. But agree that a Firestorm is too torquey to begin. if you like VTwin and want to learn the basic important things of riding, try a suzuki 650SVS. I try the 650svs of a friend, it's ...

for a long time i'm thinking about a 15 front sprocket. if it's not a problem to pull up in 2 without clutching with honda factory sprocket, i think it could be better to pull up in 2nd with less rpm (4000 i hope). advantage : acceleration, wheelies in 2 are may be a little slowlier and can start ea...
