thanx for the replies guys....don't get me wrong. i love this bike. i just don't like riding this bike........yet. if i were only a poser this bike would be perfect, but i am a rider. and yes this is not a typical generic cycle. owning a duc has a certain panache to it. for example i took out a cbr1000rr today and only garnered attention from people who are into bikes.(didn't really like it though) if i was on the duc..... women would propose to me, babies would offer me their candy, old folks would back into storefronts while trying to see me etc.....as my buddy says "sex on wheels" my buddy took it for a ride and lost (vibrated) the licence plate. he liked it but like me normally rides I4's or v4's. he raves about the looks (best looking motorcycle period) but could do without the vibes ....or clutch pull.... Right now i am torn...i have listed it in our local cycle ads but am still unsure if i will sell it. (maybe i should change my user name to "whiner or crybaby")

Galaxy what gearing would you suggest. and can any of you guys let me know of a new clutch cylinder that may ease the strain on my shattered left wrist. name and numbers would be helpful. also what type of front and rear brake pads can i add to give them a little feel. Has anyone experimented with alterations to the birdcage, such as filling it with sand to absorb the vibes. i am gonna have the suspension set up for my fat ass soon. tia mike
