Well I have been lurking around this site for a couple years and can now say I too have a warrior. I was going to buy a new one (midnight) but could not pass up this 05 black cherry w/flames that only had 2600 miles on it. It came with V & H 2-1 pipe, power commander, some kind of air intake and a corbin seat. Not sure if I will stay with this pipe or not, I like the ground pounders or rip saws personally. I have a huge mental image of what I want to accomplish with this bike and it will be great. I will apologise now for any future dumb questions I might have. I will say this bike is amazing, I previously had a v-star 1100 and a 2004 R1 and this thing is a monster. Here are a couple pics and a quick vid (baffle in).
First question since the bike is setup for the pipe does it have to have any settings changed if I wanted to take the baffle out?
Welcome to the 4M. Great looking ride. Nice mods on the bike the way you bought it and you are already talking about changes....you'll fit right in here!
You have some nice mods on your bike for a good start. I have a vision too, but it is so expensive yet gratifying at the same time. Welcome, no question is dumb.
Nice bike, my favorite factory color!. Don't remove the baffles, the bike will run like crap. !Fact!
When you decide to toss the propipe, give me a PM. Although I don't like it's style and raspy sound at highway speeds it's more suited for getting my saddlebags on and makes great power too.
Thanks guys! Put 400 miles on her between yesterday afternoon and today. Let the mods begin, I have a huge list. After all I have been on this site for a couple years just watchin and dreamin.. oh, and I live in Tavares/Leesburg area and travel to the east coast regularly.
I just bought a 2006 warrior a few weeks ago. I am very impressed with it i have had harleys forever but my body couldn't take the vibrations & I didn't like the prices for what I wanted. So far I love this bike. It's stock with a dynajet controller in it. I don't think the dealer new it was on...
Help me decide...
1. 2006 Blue 18k miles, Sissy bar, Engine guards, new tires, recent oil change, small windshield and Vance and Hines short shots (super loud) I would definitely put quiet baffles on it. Has no fuel controller. Just under $4k Owner has had it for 2 years.
2. 2002 27K miles...
So far im loving it! It already had 18" ape hangers and loud Vance and Hines pipes, and a corbin seat with backrest. I took the backrest off, ill prolly just use it for longer rides. The bike is my daily. I know sure i want to get a fender eliminator and move the license plate to the side. I...

Second season now on the beast, it was gifted to me by my father last summer as my first bike, and dubbed Venom by me. Thrill to rip which I do every chance I get, although I'm waiting on a belt to ship in, put on, and get my fix. I've heard of a couple warrior riders in Sioux Falls area one who...
