I forgot to upload these pics which I took sometime ago.... can´t see much in them but I would like to know what you see there..., good or bad, I did notice it has the roller rocker arms, that´s a good thing, right? on the springs I cannot see any red stripe... are they good enough for my 258 cam?
Anything else?
Oh, and thank you for all the compliments!

Yes, Torque is a huge difference.... I can now ride in slow traffic at almost "Idle" and she keeps pulling like a Freight Train... (b4 was all the time playing with Throttle & Clutch) :up:
Mileage.....
it all depends on your wrist... Honestly... not much difference :2thumbs:

I joined up almost 10 yrs ago, and you see the same questions over and over, except for a few comments back n forth. But after 10 years all the problems with these bikes have been discussed. And because of the low prices and the newb's buying them up, most of their problems are because the bikes have been hacked by the former owners.wowww its been five years already!!!!! those were the days about Mods for me.... this year I might change the EHC !!!!
The "How to" section just about covers everything
These bikes aren't rocket science, just bikes, ride on

And if your bike sat around on a tender for the winter, give it a good charge with a charger before you go out, or run it for at least 40-60 minutes for the VR to give it the battery a good charge.Have best fluids(capacities) spark plugs and tires been discussed yet
