I just got my first road bike and guess what it happens to be? I bought the bike from the other side of the state and had to ride it home(what a problem, NOT). It was 210mi for the maiden ride for me. The bike is awesome. I have just a couple of small images but should soon have more. I do want to ask if anybody has had a big problem with their bike overheating? If anybody has added an oil cooler and if it is worth the money? Thanks.

You didn't say which side was the "other" side - where are you in MI?

 

[Brooks]

Sorry, I am from the Wyandotte area. This is just south of Detroit by about 20 min.

Welcome! I am fairly new here as well. This site has a plethora of info.

As long as you bike is stock you should not have any probs with overheating, hence air cooled V-twin. By the way, welcome, you'll love your bike and this site.

Great, yet another one from the east side!!!! What is wrong with this world!?[/emoticons/emotion-5.gif]

You shouldnt' ever have a problem with over heating. I haven't yet, and I haven't heard of any as of yet, except in extreem conditions. Like stuck in traffic on a 110 degree day.....

If I get stuck in traffic, and sitting still, I will just shut it down for the **** of it. No sence in letting it idle for to long anyhow, and really isn't that great for any aircooled motor.....

Welcome to the forum!

are you sure it's overheating or just the check engine light? BTW - is that liquid silver or titanium - looks a bit dark to be the liquid silver.

 

[Brooks]

It isn't overheating I just want to make sure that it doesn't. As far as the color I am not really sure it might be titanium. Is there a way to find out by the vin number?

Welcome, after being on the site for awhile you're going to find that a oil cooler will be the last thing your going to spend your money on.

GOOD GOD! ANOTHER ONE!!!!!


Seriously though, there very few in my area. I went to a ride a couple weekends ago, and there were at least 500 bikes or more, and I didn't see one other warrior. But if I go to a ride on the east side, I am sure to see at least one.... I need to stop by the dealer more I guess....

 

[65tux]

Yeah, I never understood all the people saying they never see other warriors - it seems like I see them all the time around Detroit.
