    Vandemon exhaust

    Anybody have this exhaust? I prefer the header shape, look, and welding look to other similar brands. Pricing is ok as well. I had them give me a shot from the rear and it runs almost parallel to the stays...

    BMW BOBBER KIT LIGHTING SOLUTION

    Yes, saw that one. Very nice. A bit surprised you don’t use that on your riding mower too. Lol. It seems to be the seat of choice! Pretty cool looking and I must say, a first for me.

    So cool. And looking at both bikes, you take iron-butt to a whole new level.

    Which exhaust is this? Baffle?

    Anyone install an aftermarket air filter?

    Just remember if you go full dna with snorkel removal (aka silencer to BMW) the actual engine noise (not exhaust note) will increase.

    Shorty wind screen

    I think some people, but not all, confuse wind with buffeting

    Gate valves in exhaust header pipe.

    "I would like to buy a new motorcycle to ride too, but I only have two dollars.” Worse than the names of valves.

    Gate valves in exhaust header pipe.

    Yea the uses of the different valves makes sense, but the names of different valves never really made any sense to me. Except maybe a ball valve, because it at least looks like a ball. (I’m a pretty simple guy. Lol.)

    Gate valves in exhaust header pipe.

    Ah, no. Not that you appear to be interested in learning, but the two types of valves are completely different in how they work. Hence the two cables. But let us move on.

    Gate valves in exhaust header pipe.

    Pedantic, yet everyday is a school day…they are butterfly valves not gate valves. Now back to your regular programming.

    Nice. Add some brown leather grip wraps and you are in business. Thanks for the cool pic.

    Question R18B Pannier Racks

    Simple. Go to a wrap store and put on a sheet of clear. Simple cheap and replaceable any time. Big upside is your bike still looks nice when the bag is off.

    Reverse gear recall problem

    Not sure I agree that they are much/any different than anyone else.

    Reverse gear recall problem

    Agreed. Selling a bike with an active recall that has no apparent fix is DOA. Fancy expensive mirrors is of little consequence to anyone, buyer or seller. Even though on my 65 years of riding I have never even wished for reverse. Some people somehow seem to need it. Edit. Oh and hooking...
