Saul Posted Tuesday at 16:23 Share Posted Tuesday at 16:23 This video demonstrates why I paid someone to do mine. The Video is of a Yamaha which is Bucket and Shim, my Honda is Shim and Bucket which I think is one step worse. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a very time consuming job , and if you don't have to correct kit with shims ...different sizes...not something for the average Joe...had the KTM done many years ago...paid the shop to do it also... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sounds like a Honda, made by Polaris, rebranded Victory, made from left over snow mobile parts and a load of Chinese stuff. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Say what you want ...it's still great machine...ive left a few of my close friends on Harleys test ride it...they are simply blown away on how well it rides, suspension, power for a stock bike..Harley has nothing comparable for the same price...it just turned over to 30 k , other than a battery replacement...its been trouble free...

Let’s face it, you have bought an American version of a Goldwing from a company known for making snow mobiles who take their motorcycle stying queues from Harley Davidson and bought a brand name of a long dead and failed manufacturer. There is nothing wrong with that, I’m sure they are very capable bikes, just a bit soulless like real Goldwings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marcel Posted 16 minutes ago Share Posted 16 minutes ago I haven't really noticed any reduction in torque...the catalytic converter is still on the bike...actually with the auxiliary air intake and the ecu flash think it increases both numbers...torque and hp... Has for the rest of your Harley brainwashed brain...who is carrying the 1 plate in the bagger racing league ?...lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
