I LOVE THIS SITE and I am so very pleased to read that it's going to be around for a while longer. I'm not currently active on VFRD and I'm bikeless for the first time in 20+ years (wife, toddler, baby, dog, house, business) but knowing that VFRD is alive and well makes my heart happy. I've met several wonderful people via this forum, benefitted greatly from the technical information/advice etc, and I hope to utilize the site more again soon (I see an awesome 5th gen for sale south of chicago....). THANK YOU SO MUCH, HISPANICSLAMMER for your continued dedication and hard work.

Check you tube....The sound from stock to full gut is un friggin believable. I was able to snag a fully gutted stock exhaust from a member here (pick it up Thursday). I love the sound (I just came off a V-Star 1100 with a full Cobra exhaust) so i doubt the full gut will be any where near as loud as I'm used to. I just want to know of any possible negatives to running a a gutted exhaust over time, as I plan on putting about 15,000 miles a year on this bike. I have staintunes installed now.....really wondering how different the gutted stock exhaust sounds compared to them.

how do the sounds of semi-gut, full-gut, and staintunes compare?

you could try hypnosis or accupuncture. :biggrin:

It looks sufficiently dangerous.

but they are soooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo expensive!!! you vfrd guys are all rich.........care to take on an apprentice?? :laugh:

So for a guy like me who has no knowledge whatsoever about paint, how does one figure out how to match the 5th gen RED perfectly using hand-held aerosol spray paint??

What is the case mounted on now which shakes at high speeds?

Just ordered some spandex shorts from Nashbar. I never dreamed I'd stoop to this level.

I'm assuming that I need the tight (spandex style) shorts, not the baggy ones, correct?

I also bought a Sargent, and I'm in the same situation. I will definitely try some new shorts. Additionally, I have another thread going about Spencer's Seat Modifications......anyone have any experience with this company?

Even underneath jeans?
