How do I go about it? Does anyone have information on who to contact... for crating, putting in a container etc?? As far as I know, if I put the bike with other consignments (cars preferably), it would cost me less than trying to book it myself... any ideas are welcome.. thanks in advance!!

+1000 for D&H. When I was shopping for a new 08, the dealer in Atlanta actually kept a straight face and said that if I buy from D&H and bring the feejer for service to them, they will not work on priority and will be substantially longer turnaround times for everything! Crooks - most of them...

Did you get to install them yet? Have they arrived?? Waiting to see how the beam pattern looks (glare etc) so I can pull the trigger too. thanks!

I bought my FJR from around Chicago and hauled it on the back of my Ford F250 diesel crewcab all the way to Atlanta a few months ago. Things you should buy: 1) Lots of straps - Since you may not find adequate strapping places, remove the seats and you can strap to the frame. 2) front wheel...

thanks to both for your replies... I'll stay away from slime like its the plague then!! :)

my scooter has tubeless tires... also, what is sticky string?? I tried a plug in the nail hole but seems to be leaking ever so slowly over a week. edit: ignore the question about the sticky string... I just found out what it is... but if it is the same as a plug, I do have one in place but as I...

I have a generic chinese made scooter and I have a flat in the rear tire - 60/130/13. I've been trying to find a shop that would fix it but none of the ones in my area have the tire removal machine for a 13 inch wheel. I live in North Atlanta... any place you guys would recommend I take the...

was attempting a k turn just outside my driveway with one foot on the ground... and my foot slipped and the bike came down on the left side... gently... but the asphalt was unforgiving and I have scratched my stator cover. ...and as luck would have it, it was only today that I decided I needed...

Its here...!!! :) It appears that I was more worried than it was necessary - whew!! feels good to say that instead of 'I should have been more careful as you all had cautioned me'!! Bought the bike and it is absolutely worderful and not a single scratch or blemish anywhere - mechanical or...

I got a very good deal on it... too much motorcycle for the previous owner and he traded it up to a civic... no... no kidding. Look at my first post in this thread (linkified with 'my hunt') and you can read more about how skeptical everyone and I was on this. and since this was from the north...

I read through the entire two pages and I have something slightly different for you... I grew up in south east asia and I am very well acquainted with the kind of traffic there. I now ride a FJR (v new to me so I dont do anything non-conventional) but before that, I used to ride a Royal...

So for all of you that were following my hunt for a good 08 A, I finally bit the bullet on a deal posted by a dealer on Cycle-Trader. I drove my tuck from Atlanta to NW Chicago and hauled the feejer back home.. Had about 1800 miles on her with not a single blemish or spot anywhere -...

I also got a pm from a fellow-forum member here about some leftover A s right in your state... right from 06... let me forward the pm off to you. <edit> pm sent to you.

I have a hard copy of the dealers having leftover 08s... might be a bit dated - a couple of months - but at worst you'd find that a few of them do not have it anymore... interested? I can put up a scan here if you'd like. Alternatively, walk into a delership and ask them to locate a specific...

Actually, ever since I could see that I have other options, my level of being pissed off with Velocity is simmering down... and I think once I can see my bike, I'll truly let go... my signature stays tho!! :assassin:

...seriously, I wouldnt have known about this at all!!!! LOL thanks for pointing this out!!

Thats a great suggestion! Thank you!! They are in Sycamore, IL... anyone reading this thread and who is close to that area??! :rolleyes:

I am totally appreciative of ibleedgreen trying to help me... the 'thank you' was indeed meant in earnest and not as an 'autoreply' :) I just found out from a Yamaha dealer about this particular one (from the VIN)... all the recalls and TSBs have been done to the bike and single owner checks...

yep... title is in the same state...

thanks for the tip... I have a VIN number for the vehicle... is there anything I can do with it before I buy it? <edit> I just found out that it is titled in the same state that it is getting sold in and is not a repo or a auction vehicle. Once again, with the VIN, can i do anything...
