Hey fellas, been lurking the forum for a month now and finally got a Warrior. Really impressed with the help available on here by the way. I found an 02 in really good shape for $5800. Good deal? It has a Cobra pipe that I can't identify. I will post a pic, if anyone knows what it is I would be grateful. I'm already planning mods. It pops on deceleration because of the pipe so I just bought a PCIII from a member. I think a VBAK, AIS block-off, new bars, a set of the Samson Street Sweepers and a 240 kit are in my future. My room-mate has a Big Bear Choppers pro-street style Harley with a 300 tire, so I gotta show him how it's supposed to be done.
Welcome and congrats on the Warrior. Sounds like you cut a good deal. I had the Cobra slip-on for awhile, good sound and looks, not much on power though.
Welcome Bluesnake, and congrats on your Warrior. How many miles did your bike have when you got it? I'm not that far away from you, in Fremont, Ca. There's actually quite a few Warriors in the bar area.
Aw, gee, I feel all warm and fuzzy now. The bike has a little over 18k miles. Yes, thats my other ride in the background. That's a replica I built of a 65 Shelby Cobra 427 S/C. It's a Factory Five, you've probably seen the ads in Road and Track. Now you see where my screen name comes from. I see there are a lot of members in NorCal. After I cut my teeth on this thing a little, I am going to have to go ride with you guys. Many thanks for the pipe identification.
Welcome bluesnake. You're gonna love this forum, especially if you have money to burn on mods. I'm broke and lovin' it! Post some pics of your Cobra Replica with some deatils on engine, horsepower, amount invested, etc. I've always wanted to build one of those and I may be able to in 2007.
Just scooped up a bone stock 04 rs warrior with 1000 miles on the clock, thing looks brand new. Been about 10yrs since I first rode one and fell in love and finally bought one. I just ordered a Churchkey V-BAK, coil relocation kit from Akitadog, AIS delete from Pacific Coast, V&H big shots and a...
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...
Hello again
Made a mistake selling my Warrior 3 years ago but I've managed to track it down and buy it back with only 155 miles added :oops:
looking for an original seat in any condition if anyone has one for sale let me know.
