BWP 5p 15th October 2006, 17:27 Bert.......how about the swingarm?
Could you tell if it's still rubber mounted?
bplinson 15th October 2006, 17:32 It is still rubber mounted.
GOTWA 15th October 2006, 17:47 Bert I have questions damnit!
:D:D:D
CBAS5 15th October 2006, 17:48 You lucky bastard! Did you manage to find out the weight of the bike? Also, on the right side is a black piece with the HD logo on it. On a closeup photo it seems to have a bunch of tubes entering into it. Is that a catch can?
bplinson 15th October 2006, 18:48 No that is the EFI.

I'm guessing it's the throttle body cover.
So Bert, you as the first XLF member on the XR1200...I don't believe it. I mean, I know those test riders HAVE to be members. ;):D

Deimus 15th October 2006, 22:29 Did you notice they assembled it without proper instructions. The dang fools put the forks on upside down. And furthermore, they mounted the air cleaner up under the right side of the gas tank. ...amateurs

The guy with the 883C 16th October 2006, 04:48 Did anybody look at you funny when you twisted the throttle and yelled "POTATO, POTATO!" at the top of your lungs?

makarov 16th October 2006, 06:00 Bert,
Just curious how tall you are? And how did you feel the bike fit you? It looks like a fairly upright riding position from your picture.
bplinson 16th October 2006, 06:02 I am 5'8" It fit just fine.
Roadster_Rider 16th October 2006, 06:05 Hey Bert I just thought maybe we should have another pic of you to get an idea of how tall you are-
I held onto this in case of need for blackmail material :roflblack

Roadster_Rider 16th October 2006, 06:14 Let the bannage begin!! :danceman
