can you adapt a r1 rectifier to a 1997 xx and if so what year model r1 rectifier do i use???

very very cool sleeper!!!!!! haven't thought of that but i like it!!!!!!! i may have a set of leo vince for sale very soon!!!!!!!! what kind of resonators did you use??

cool!! thanks guys!!

normal running mine stays just above the lower line on the cool side but i noticed today that it got just a tad over halfway toward the hot side when i was at a redlight,but i was only at the light for a couple of minutes,was just wandering if it was normal and when should i start worrying about how high is too high

what should the temp gauge read during normal operation on a 97 bird!!! c------h

i just got my bike back from the local speed shop, having my carbs built and tuned,and all of the sudden the leo vince are screaming!!!! amazing what a good carb guy can do!!!!!!!

thanks rc randy!!! that is cool

i guess since i started this thread i should post that i have the leo vince carbon fiber slip ons!! i like them alot but i am looking for something with a little more scream to them,but keep the same look that i have going on now,alot of people keep telling me yoshi's,but i have'nt heard enough of them on 1100xx to decide exactly the sound i am looking for! is there any place to hear sample sounds of different exhaust on a particular bike? these damn slip ons are too damn exspensive to keep buying and trying!!!!!!!! if any one is intrested,maybe some trading around or something????? Payton

thanks for the input guys!!!!

thanks silverbird!!!!!! may just do that,let me try to figure it out myself first!!!!

i went ahead and just ordered them both to be safe!! the stator side cover gets a little hot,not so hot i cant touch it but hot enough to not leave my hand on it long! thanks guys

should there be excessive heat on the stator cover after a ride??

reading through some old post i think i got it figured out

i have owned a few bikes in the past, and also have a harley in the garage,but i have never really had to work on any of them, i just bought this bird just a couple of months ago and i am having trouble with the battery going dead after about an hour or so of riding, not a mechanic but mechanically inclined, i am assuming either the stator or the rectifier is fried, is there an easy way to figure out what exactly it is before i dump a but load of money on shit i dont need?????? any help would be greatly appreciated!!! newbie to this forum and love the site,alot of helpful info!!!!

thanks silverbird, not a canada bike! i haven't had this one very long and i bought it because of the color,its awesome up close as well!!!!!! i am having issues with the battery not staying charged though,put a new one in it and its still not charging, maybe a topic for different thread
