| Bought the bike on May 12, 2008 from Arkport Cycles for $6,500 (plus a bunch of taxes). By 2009, I had made a bunch of changes and additions. Last change has been the adding of a M50 air cleaner assembly Any questions... just ask! Regards, John | |

| "Viking" brand off the internet. Leather covered, with a metal core shape that the leather is glued to. Then it has a fiberglass back panel. Viking has nice bags (made in China) but they do not carry any replacement parts. I had to re-do the snaps, and now when the next one goes it will be replaced with velcro. I made my own aluminium plates that I mounted inside the fiberglass and then two S.S. bolts mount them to the bike on the aluminum sissy bar frame. | |

| "how did you find the 1400 shaft changed the bike?"
The taller gear I got from swapping out the rear end was like adding a sixth gear.
I do have to slip the clutch a little from a stop.
But I love the lower RPM at highway speeds, and gas milage is better too. | |
