DJ, looks good. You got my attention. Since it is a phototype, how about the possibility of a lower (-2") and wider seat. As I have posted before, lowering...
I think you are asking questions that you will be able to answer better after your 'experiment.' I've heard the power to weight ratio is pretty close. That in...
The big question..... will my seat fit..? D.J., I'm gathering they are taking a s/w and dressing it up and adding more power. Is this right, are do you think...
Looks like a Silver Wing with a few add-ons, and polished wheels. I'm not impressed, yet. Now, if they can get a real 60 horsepower to the rear wheel, that...
D.J. Looks like the same rear shocks. Any plans to beef those up a bit? I love the tank bag BTW! A great addition to the SW! Thanks, Jeff Barnes Pittsburgh,...
When you guys called in to schedule your wheel recall work, did the dealer want to know the mileage on your scooters? Just curious why they would need this...
Jay: My adice is this - when on the starting line, grab the rear brake as hard as you can and throttle up the bike. This is basically how the testers at Car...
... dealer ... Melanie, there is no reason, other than curiosity, for them to ask mileage. Probably the best way to describe it is "a recall is forever", and...
DJ- I have a few questions that you might be able to address with the Honda folks about 04. I saw you stated that you wanted a Red/yellow combo. Is a red S/W...

Hi I have seen a lot of talk about the Fournales rear shocks and am considering purchasing these. Are these worth the money? I am 5'7" 120lbs and always ride...
Has anyone performed any hop ups on the SW. Changed the airbox etc. I realize the fuel injection makes all this more complicated. I did see some photos of...
I have seen several posts about cruise controls fitted to the SW. I have never had a motorcycle with a cruise control fitted and was wondering how you use them...
Looking around there seems to be a lot of talk about the Givi windshield. However, a couple of people say these are ugly and very tall and recommend the...
Might want to try a search on the site... that was last year sometime.... and the results seemed not worth the effort and $$ involved.. Arne, CT, USA . ...
Jill- I am 509 and went w/ Ermax as I thought Givi was too big for my tastes. I have been very happy w/ Ermax at interstate speeds of 80 mph +. The wind hits...
If Honda decided to remodel the SW, the main reservation I'd have about eliminating the "hideous thing" over the rear tire is that the hideous thing contains...
