It was a beauty. Fantastic bike. I own a number of different bikes (14 right now). I decided to make motorcycle restoration my retirement hobby...
I have arthritis in my wrists. It gets me right around my thumb area. I've also had 3 back surgeries so back is not as strong as it could be. I do...
I loved that bike. It was a very nice example. I bought it on a whim last fall because I thought it was under priced. It turned out that I was...
I sold my VFR. [IMG] I have bad wrists and the riding position was just too difficult. I thought about risers or different bars but opted...
That would do it. Not a very common problem in my experience. Glad I told him to check the water pump.
