all due respect, why don' you ever replace it? Surely you must have to add some once in a while.......if it uses a little bit.....

thanks

Haven't been on as of late, been working hard. But also been riding hard. Finally took a couple pics of her.http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v6...ps56aca67e.jpghttp://img.photobucket.com/albums/v6...ps25972eef.jpghttp://img.photobucket.com/albums/v6...ps1091922f.jpg

Anyway that is her after 9015 miles. Only one other issue at the moment. seat has a tear in it, need to either repair or replace, but the replace seems to be more than I can afford at this time unless someone has a line to some decent prices for solo seats.http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v6...psb194f4b9.jpg

oh yeah, and she needs a bath. But hey she's a rat and a little dirt never hurt anyone.:icon10::icon10::icon10:

Have you had any other problems with the bike? I'm still working through this thread. Did you have any gas tank leak? I have seen that they are dropping this model, or, at least changing a few things. This tank seems to be dropped in favor of a Sportster looking peanut tank, and these bars are gone too.

what kind of performance have you seen since removing the secondary air injection? better? worse?
did you need to make any adjustments afterward?

An upholstery shop should be able to bang out a quick cover for around $50.Maybe less if they can get by without stitching.
