Title: Re: 2012 Clymer cover... Post by Steve H on 01/15/14 at 14:47:11 What's wrong with the muff going where it belongs, beside or under the frame rail, down and out of the way? |

Title: Re: 2012 Clymer cover... Post by Steve H on 01/16/14 at 16:12:40 I was. I said beside or under the frame rail. Not beside the cylinder. I've been burned on plenty of dirt bikes with mufflers in locations similar to that. Maybe I should have said beside or under the bottom frame rail. It is, after all, a street bike. Ground clearance isn't that big of an issue It's a nice bike. Someone put in lots of work, time, and effort. It's just completely not my style. Give me a stocker and let me install a good vetter fairing, some bags, a trunk, a double bucket touring seat, radio...Now we're talking. :) |

Title: Re: 2012 Clymer cover... Post by Steve H on 01/17/14 at 03:58:13 Nah...It's somebody's bike. Clymer just got pics of it. |

Title: Re: 2012 Clymer cover... Post by Oldfeller on 01/17/14 at 06:02:37 Now, I betcha that is the only "fix" that Clymers has done to ALL the dozens of known errors that are still included in the manual. |

Title: Re: 2012 Clymer cover... Post by old_rider on 01/17/14 at 06:20:03 I just keep thinkin' how much my boys would be hurtin' if I rode longer than about 3 min on that seat leanin' forward to hold those bars. I think that's a young mans bike, or its just to pull off a trailer and look at. (and that's my opinion, i'm not knockin' the looks, its very clean looking) |

For some reason I thought you mean the muffler belonged up on the side! My bad :o When I was a kid I had a small italian mini bike with a chrome muffler down the right side. I got a really horrible nasty burn on my calf from that muffler one day - it got my attention! |

that's a vent port, vac port hidden under breather hose. |

Title: Re: 2012 Clymer cover... Post by justin_o_guy2 on 01/17/14 at 12:47:03 Thanks, Mines gone & its been a while since I actually looked at the carb. Still doesnt look like a really good idea.. |

Title: Re: 2012 Clymer cover... Post by Serowbot on 01/17/14 at 12:53:39 You guys got eyes like hawks... :o... I like an upswept pipe... I'd just want the muffler a good bit further back... ...and I'd prefer it on the left side, following the belt line... (wishful thinking. I'll never do it)... :-?... |

Title: Re: 2012 Clymer cover... Post by justin_o_guy2 on 01/17/14 at 12:58:45 Well,, observation is one of my "things",, |

If I were to do it, I'd do it that way. but IMO, leaves an ugly hole from where it was. |
