    Who has the 20th Anniversary Model

    #1878 here...or thereabout. Put her to bed last Oct. and its been too long since I've been able to through a leg over and see the badges. Looking for warmer temps... Bought mine with 8000 Km's (4800 mi) from a retired fire chief. He kept her in mint shape and I plan to do the same. Chromed the...

    Please Help Me!!!

    Had the same thing happen on my previous bike...a Suzuki. This is not a problem unique to Yamaha's. Everyone should file this gem away in their memory banks. Kudo's to all forum members willing to help a brother in trouble.

    im trolling some HD forums..

    Never been my style to deliberately troll... But I had to laugh at some of the reactions of the HD forum members trying to figure out if you were in fact a troll or legit. :biglaugh: The whole thread reminded me of when I learned the definition of a harley... "The most efficient way of...

    Honeymoon

    Congrats on the wedding and honeymoon. Just curious, which island were you on? My wife surprised me with a trip to Hawaii in '07. We stayed on the big Isl for a week and rented an "07 HD EGClassic. We had a blast exploring for the day, touring the north tip all the way to the south tip of the...

    What did you do to your Vmax today?

    Got my newly chromed scoops and sidecovers from Sean a few days ago. Been so busy the last few that I haven't even been able to throw all the parts back on yet. But the quality of the chrome is A1 and they sure look PUR-D!. Can't wait til my night shifts are over to finish the install, change...

    shifting to neutral

    My '05 has around 8,000 miles and have the exact same issue. Easy to get into neutral when cold...pretty much impossible when at operating temp with the bike running. If I shut the engine off, she goes into neutral without effort. I just figured this is typical for the max.

    Shipping Nightmare Coming True

    Another Update: Got an email today that totally changed this thing around...:punk: Turns out Sean just got my chromed parts shipped to him as they were supposed to. Talk about a paradigm shift. After a few calls, Sean confirmed they are in fact mine, and is shipping them back to me on...

    Shipping Nightmare Coming True

    Hey Sean. Yeah, I'm gettin' the feeling like I'm going to have to source out another set of scoops and sidecovers. I don't know of any local contacts that would have an extra set. In the meantime, I guess I can wait and see if anyone on this site can help. Can you shoot me an email as to how...

    Dallas Trip- 2 Thumbs Up

    Just got back from a week in Dallas. My wife had a conference at the Sheraton Convention Center, so I decided to tag along and take in the city. The first 2 days were in the mid 80's, which was a nice change compared to the mid 40's back home. Took in the 6th floor museum, which covers the...

    Shipping Nightmare Coming True

    UPDATE: CP has traced the parts without success. They called the chroming place and they have not yet received the package. It has now been over a month. The Canada post rep said if it hasn't arrived by Mar. 06th, she'd declare it lost. I can only imagine how long it will be to actually have a...

    Hey Jim. Canada post got the package to the border, in a day. I'm wondering if the customs guys have issue with it. I just have to wait if CP can get the process moving again.

    Shipping Nightmare Coming True

    True...but she isn't quite as purdy once you get those scoops off is she? To illustrate, if Redbone started posting pics of honey's with missing teeth, I think we'd soon hear something about it. :whistlin: As for the patience thing, I'm trying, but I only live 20 min. from the border and could...

    Shipping Nightmare Coming True

    OK men...I gotta vent. Been wanting to chrome my scoops and sidecovers since last summer. Didn't want to take away from any ride time so I decided to wait for the snow to work on the Max. In the meantime, I did my homework, talked to a few guys on this site, and decided Sean is the way to go...
