Re: Hi all!

I'm guessing Power Commanders are more expensive than Dynojet kits mind... although easier to just download a fuel map and be done with it I guess.

One of the local bikes is a nice '04 unfaired example...

Re: Hi all!

Hi! I have a pointy - but have to admit those curvy's that aren't crawling with corrosion look better. But you know, modern technology and all that! Good choice on SV though, would have been so much better off with one from the off rather than that sh***y Eliminator!

Bonjour and willkomen.

I've had both a curvy and a pointy. I miss my curvy sometimes and then it gets cold and the fi on the pointy does its thing and starts first time without a faff.

However i had the best curvy (blue and naked) and now have the best pointy (red with black frame, half faired) so my opinions are worth far more than most peoples on this site.

Oh dont feed the wildlife after midnight, keep your hands an feet inside the car at all times and enjoy the ride ;)

I'm sure you wouldn't find anyone on this site that would stoop so low....on the other hand some of them own curvy's....:)

Welcome aboard.

Pretty much. They didn't change much, just a cheaper frame, rear linkage better for fatties and added fuel injection.

Re: Hi all!

i recommend you get a curvy but make sure its a naked they look loads better, the best colour to buy is in yellow as well.
but the curvy's is best if your light and want your bike too last the winters the pointy is better if your a fat b*****d and want a new one every summer.

welcome to the org.

and speedplay you forgot to mention ducati's are invading too!
