You guys ever seen a sport bike with ASV levers?
Curious on how many guys use them?  I think I want to swap my front brake lever for an ASV  ???

They make ASV's for quads, street bikes, & dirt bikes. I'm surprised they don't make them for sleds  :thumbs:

I found 2 new 2007 FJR's in Redwood Falls Mn @ the Yammi dealer. $11,600

I was talking to Ticeman in Perry IA & he is loving his 2008 FJR. He has a Turbo Seca with like 240,000 miles on it  :jaw:  He put 175,000 miles on another bike.  What an animal.

ASV sent me part #'s for FJR levers, time to bill the CC soon  :lol:

With new tires costing $410, what should I expect for milage before they are shot?
I understand there are lots of contributing factors but I'm looking for an average?
5,000 miles  ???

5000 for a semi sport compound tire. Should be more for a sport- touring tire.

It gets kind of spendy. I have never priced bike tires, but wow that is just crazy if you do a lot of riding

That's just crazy. I know my buddy had to replace the rear tire on his Victory Hammer and it was like $300 and something. That is just crazy ???
