      @mikejacks1939 it connects to the phone via WiFi, and then the phone uses Bluetooth to connect to a headset. Also uses the WiFi connection to download videos that are recorded in the unit. I would say it's not easy to remove quickly. It has security fittings to make it difficult to remove quickly but like anything there's always a risk leaving anything on a bike 🤷‍♂️

    A friend of mine had one back in the day. Let me ride it for half an hour up in the Ozark mountains. It was perfectly tuned, engine and suspension, and I will never forget how it would wheelie out of EVERY SINGLE CORNER!

      They are such fun and very underrated because of the competition looking more 'sporty' 😎👍

    It's not all Jap bikes, my GPZ500 was like a russian tractor. It's hondas. They have that reputation for a damn good reason

    Unfortunately it also ticks the gas-guzzler box. In a big way, too.

    • @wsmv
      @wsmv Місяць тому

      It's actually not that bad on gas, just has a small tank, although having the biggest carbs of ANY produ tion bike doesn't help, but sounds awesome 😎 👌

    If its range is 70 miles as you said or even 100miles, that's reason enough to forget about it. But you chose to not spend more than 2sec on the topic.

      To be fair, ridden sensible (like anyone would) you could get 120, but the 2000 model onwards had a slightly bigger tank which helps 🤷‍♂️

    I've always wondered why people think you can't ride a sportster long distances. You can do it on a 250cc just have to stay off the 80mph hwys.

      I know my 883 will go anywhere and be comfortable doing it, but I didn't know until I tried. Plus I've had it hold pace at 85 to 90mph without it missing a beat. ❤️HD

      Hi John, hope this helps. Calais to riems, Riems to mulhouse, Mulhouse through Switzerland to bormio, Bormio over stelvio and through Austria to freidricshafen (stopping at the neunwanstein castle) (very long day, too long) Freidrichshafen to saarbrucken, Saarbrucken to ghent, Ghent home. We took 8 days but should have taken at least 12 because the last few days became very hard especially in the heat. Hope that helps 👍

    I have a blue 2003 VTR 1000 SuperHawk (US version), and I'm the original owner. Only 36,000 miles so far, but no issues at all with it (3K mile GN4 oil changes, brake, clutch, and coolant flushes every couple years, and fresh chain lube regularly). Just tires, a set of brake pads, and a one chain/sprockets worn out. It still rides like new and pulls equally hard and smooth from 4,000 to 9,500 RPM. My only advice is to spend the money and get a Corbin seat for it. It immensely improves the seat comfort and does not negatively affect the tank-hugging sporty riding position! The only real down sides are the 100 mile range before the fuel light comes on, and the carburetor at altitude. I live in Colorado, so the flat(ish) "plains" for us are at 5,000ft elevation, and mountain rides vary from 5,000 to 12,000 feet elevation. It's just not possible to tune a carb to have the right air/fuel ratio over that wide of an elevation range, so above 9,000ft, I can't give it more than 70% throttle without bogging down due to running far too rich. Fortunately, I don't have to because it's just as fun at half throttle with the wide power band. It really is just easy and relaxing to ride and feels like it goes way too fast way too effortlessly with no drama and a smile-inducing sound that I've never tired of hearing. I do an annual 500 mile "spirited ride" in the mountains in late summer (on a weekday when school is back on to avoid as much traffic as possible), with about 80% of that being amazing twisty scenic mountain roads. It's one of the best days of my year, almost every year. I don't mind the welcome breaks at the 6 fuel stops along the way! Great place to live for spring-fall motorcycling :) Here's what that all-day ride looks like: www.google.com/maps/dir/Standley+Lake+Library+-+Jefferson+County+Public+Library,+8485+Kipling+St,+Arvada,+CO+80005/Nederland/40.166808,-105.4606419/40.3814764,-105.5148919/40.4182792,-105.1900624/Stove+Prairie+Landing/Toponas/38.8116222,-106.117109/Bailey/39.8524303,-105.1092043/@39.8286043,-105.3858817,9.17z/data=!4m37!4m36!1m5!1m1!1s0x876b89250054e3ed:0x72ee64f8fac21f62!2m2!1d-105.1111944!2d39.8504537!1m5!1m1!1s0x876bc6c44e45525b:0x8d645c98aaec4cb2!2m2!1d-105.5108312!2d39.9613759!1m0!1m0!1m0!1m5!1m1!1s0x87693d9e760b05ff:0x79083c86fcc894d0!2m2!1d-105.3891557!2d40.6824814!1m5!1m1!1s0x87421de66f1ba8ab:0xa0a1d00285f051ec!2m2!1d-106.8080984!2d40.0602639!1m0!1m5!1m1!1s0x876b12406ebe3e01:0xad0f96177e864c2b!2m2!1d-105.4786412!2d39.4060536!1m0!3e0?entry=ttu I hope you enjoy your Firestorm as much as I enjoy mine!!!

      Thanks Chris, it's great to read someone else's experiences on a bike that I loved so much. I had to trade mine in (for now) because I needed a touring bike for the 2 of us, but I will get another vtr. The fuel problem is just a by-product of how much fun the bike is, it's not particularly thirsty just has a small tank........ and sounds awesome at full throttle 🤣🤣
