  1. First Road Trip

    The 19th is a Monday I think, are you going on the 23rd? Either way I am not going to make it. I would be up for a Calgary area ride sometime this summer...maybe a day trip somewhere?
  2. First Road Trip

    We were just there a couple weeks ago on the bike, great place to stay for a night or two. There is a pub/restaurant attached to the Best Western with a patio that is right on the water, great for a beer after a days ride :-) I am in Calgary too, we did a similar trip but went down to the...
  3. Leaking gear oil on roadster

    I agree it is probably ok, but time for a change anyways. Thanks for all the input & tips, will report back. Suddenly missing my centre stand on my vmax.... Jason
  4. Leaking gear oil on roadster

    Thanks Hanso. My bike is out of warranty now and I really dont think the dealer did anything, hopefully just a coincidence as there was no reason to. I will double check with them to be safe. Is changing the diff fluid just like on other bikes, drain and then fill till it starts coming out...
  5. First Pic of the new bike.

    Congrats, nice having those engine bars just in case. I am glad I have mine. Great looking bike, enjoy. And um...yes, right color choice :D
  6. Leaking gear oil on roadster

    As per the picture, I have had a small amount of gear oil leaking from this chrome cap, is this just an overflow? I had my bike in the shop to have the caliper replaced in the fall, but there shouldn't have been any reason for them to change/add fluid, so not sure why this is happening...
  7. Busted by a V Max

    I sold my 03 Vmax last year and came to the R3 roadster. The Vmax is a blast to ride, but now that I have logged some miles on my new bike I prefer the rocket. Better range (if you are taking it easy), more comfortable, and I just like the looks of the Rocket better...dual headlight, chrome and...
  8. Storage stand

    I'm curious as well...I haven't tried but you must have both under the oil pan?
  9. Storage stand

    ****. Thats what I figured, haha. You have a pic of your bike up on the jack? Thanks for the info, will get one of these made up.
  10. Storage stand

    Hey Mully95, quick question for you if you dont mind. Do you have to use this "fred adapter" as well? I have a roadster and the jack in the link below. I havent tried using it yet (bike has been at the shop) but wondering if I will need a this bracket to make it work or if the jack will work as...
  11. Brake caliper leaking

    I spoke too soon, the brake caliper is still leaking. Swung by the dealership, they have now ordered a whole new caliper under warranty...that should fix the problem :)
  12. Brake caliper leaking

    I Figured I would post a follow up on this, just in case anyone else runs into the same problem. I had the dealer replace the bleed nipple & cover (under warranty)and bleed the brake, it seems to have fixed the problem. Most likely something got in there and was causing it to weep a little, but...
  13. Brake caliper leaking

    Thanks Binnsy...my thoughts exactly, just thought I would see if anyone else has had this happen. I doubt it is a difficult fix but because it is under warranty, I will let the dealer get their hands dirty :D
  14. Brake caliper leaking

    Hey guys, wondering if anyone can chime in on this. I did a search and didnt come up with anything. My bike is still under warranty but I thought I would check here first. The rear brake caliper is leaking/seeping a little bit of brake fluid after I use the rear brake. It isnt much, but...
  15. Converted from a Vmax

    Thanks guys, that will be my winter project this year...I have sunk enough money into it for this year. Albertaduke, I did see your bike, it was parked outside of the fenced area when I seen it. Definitely up for a ride sometime.
  16. Converted from a Vmax

    Sorry, one other question...service manual, is it the same for the the 2011 as all of the other years? While searching I seen there are a couple floating around, but not sure if they apply to the roadsters as well as the Classic/touring etc.
  17. Converted from a Vmax

    Pic of the new bike.. Thanks for the warm welcome. I don't see me changing the exhaust this year. I actually like the look/sound of the stock exhaust, but I am sure I will want more of a rumble as I get used to it, so will have to live with the pop/small backfire for the time being. It isnt bad...
  18. Converted from a Vmax

    Hello from Calgary Alberta Canada. I have been reading lots of the info on this site, so thought I better say hello and introduce myself. I just picked up a 2011 Roadster after selling my 2003 Vmax I owned for 4 years. Attached is a pic of the old bike, I will get a pic of the new bike in...
