Hello from Frisco, Texas.

Hi My name is Roald.... I'm a bikeaholic..
I just got this.... and like it a lot.... except for the clunky transmission
It's a '06 and only 3K on it. It likes to eat the read plate so I'll have to upgrade the eliminator, but other than that it's a sweet ride.

Re: Hello from Frisco, Texas.

Hey welcome rbva! It's great to have you here, sharp looking ride too. The tranny is only a state of mind. Preload the shifter and BAM! you're in the next gear!

I like the black out on the muffler cover. Sharp.

Visit often and post a lot!

Re: Hello from Frisco, Texas.

Welcome!!! Congrats on the bike!

As for the FE.... Can you bend it back a bit without compromising the integrity? Also, see what the proviosu owner set the rear shock to. It you're a heavier guy, cracnk the rear preload to 5 or higher (I use 7 at 220 lbs) and that will keep you from bottoming out and catching the plate.

Re: Hello from Frisco, Texas.

Welcome. I have no clunk issues with my transmission. Are you shifting at high enough rpm's? Have you checked your chain slack?

Hope you love your bike as much as we love ours!
