New to the S40 World - With PICS
07/18/13 at 14:51:42
 
I picked up a 2006 S40 with 10K miles last Monday for a great price.  The engine runs great, but the Jardine exhaust needs some hush-hush put to it.  I've seen a few posts on ways to quiet it down, so I have it off with the baffle removed for now.  I'll sort it out soon.

It is missing the right side cover which I found on ebay and it is on the way.  I still need the chrome cover that I believe would cover the tool bag on the same side.  Is that what it covers?

Thanks!

I might end up doing that if my idea doesn't work.

cover is #17. Has a lock #22 that works w/ignition key. Might need #23 and #16 depending on what you're missing. Try to find someone on here that's got take off parts before you buy new. New is a little bit pricey for what this stuff is IMO.

Thanks for the link.  I bought one from a forum member.  We'll see what else I need after it gets here.  I'm just glad that the bike runs great.

Try to get a key with the same letter on it
then you'll be able to get it rekeyed to use the ig key.
but since the box is low security anyway, a couple of pins is enough.
see tool box rekeying in the tech section.

I bought this bike for my wife to "move up to" so to speak.  She currently has a 2007 Virago 250 and we have done multiple 100+ mile rides on the scenic Georgia back roads.  I will post a few pics so you get a better idea.  This is a learning bike.

She loves the torque compared to the Virago already.  A new rear tire goes on tomorrow.  This bike will be for sale so we can get a newer cleaner version of the S40.

A few of my past rides... but certainly not all of them!  I am leaving out my Tupperware Torpedo craze bikes.

This is a 2005 1200 Sportster Custom.  A really nice bike.  I put 10,000 miles on it and it was a great scooter.


My current Scooter.


Installing the EFI controller on my Fatboy


My Dyna Wide Glide


Another shot because this bike was sweet!


This was an 883 I picked up and put 10,000 miles on.  Nice ride.


This was a bike I got such a good deal on it was crazy.


This was a Buell Blast I bought with less than 200 miles on it.  My son put almost 9000 miles on it and we sold it for what we paid for it.  A very under rated bike in my opinion.


This was a DRZ400 I bought and put 10,000 miles on it.  Great bike, but not freeway friendly.


This was my Road King I called Oprah.  Really nice bike and I loved it when I had it.  I put 28,000 + miles on it I believe.


Mommy's hot rod!



My ZRX1100 - I built this with cams and every go fast part going at the time.  It was an awesome ride.  I believe I put 24,000 miles on it.


A pic of my son when he was 14 riding one of my Wide Glides.  He thought he was cool... I believe he was!


Here is a pic of that Wide Glide


Here is a pic of my Wife's Virago.  Soon to be sold and a new S40 to be purchased.


If you made it this far, thanks for looking!

I am not tall, but I do love motorcycles.  My motto:

Ride as many as you can, Live the experience, post pics if you have them!  

4 wheels moves the body....  2 wheels moves the soul!
