Even if it doesn't break down, you'll be putting a rear tire on it every 4K-5k miles.   Logged       The administrator has disabled public write access. #1021526 pastornj (User) Platinum Boarder Posts: 3110 Re:Another new bike from Yamaha 5 Months, 3 Weeks ago   Deerkiller wrote: Assocracer wrote: Father_Pobasturd wrote: I still think the BMW K1600B is a way better deal.

I still want to see one without the fairing. I've never really been a fairing or even windshield guy on my cruisers. fairings look cool on race toys, but those days are behind me. Big fairings always make me think of Goldwings or HD dressers - I'm just not feeling that old yet.   Logged     The administrator has disabled public write access. #1021543 Deerkiller (User) I just made this great wheelie...did you see it? Platinum Boarder Posts: 7151 Re:Another new bike from Yamaha 5 Months, 3 Weeks ago   I don't think think we are likely to see one of these without a fairing. Could be wrong, but these are obviously aimed at the Goldwing/F6B and Roadglide market. Transcontinental touring. Wonder who came up with that   Logged       The administrator has disabled public write access. #1021545 Orthogonal (User) Platinum Boarder Posts: 1624 Re:Another new bike from Yamaha 5 Months, 3 Weeks ago   it looks like it's angry. I like the motor. so are we reaching the limit on cc's on the v-twin in production motorcycle? I see Harley has the 114ci on their new bikes (I envision a major recall). You see some 121ci in aftermarket Harley style motors.. just wondering what the limit will be for reliability, size, etc. for the major bike producers.   Logged     Last Edit: 2017/09/07 12:23 By Orthogonal.     The administrator has disabled public write access. #1021547 Assocracer (User) Platinum Boarder Posts: 1227 Re:Another new bike from Yamaha 5 Months, 3 Weeks ago   Orthogonal wrote: it looks like it's angry.

The Harley CVO model touring bikes have 117's in them. I think they are similar to the S&S 117's, those are good engines.   Logged       The administrator has disabled public write access. #1021570 BubbaKahuna (User) No reasonable excuse for what I am about to do. Platinum Boarder Posts: 4607 Re:Another new bike from Yamaha 5 Months, 3 Weeks ago   Looks like the closest bike HD has to the new Star Eluder is the Road Glide CVO priced "starting at $41,399*". https://motorcycles.harley-davidson.com/us/en/motorcycles/2018/cvo/cvo-road-glide.html Pretty sure you could make the Eluder be whatever you need with that extra $17,400 you wouldn't need to drop 'Day Of Sale'. * (much less what it will really cost you if you finance it).   Logged     This fits in here, right? I mean, I can make this fit in here ... right?   The administrator has disabled public write access.
