A bike that old with that low of miles is not always a good thing. First thing the tires are 7 - 8 years old and no matter how much tread are on them they need to be replaced, tires have a life of about 7 years and then they deteriorate. The fluids, clutch, brake, anti freeze fork oil ETC probably have been been changed and will need that done now. Seals dry up if left dry after so many years so you could start to have leaks also.

and for the record I didnt post anything to stir anything up, I know i'm new here and friends are over rated anyway. that being said he had an open statement about 2 types of riders and I said that wasnt the case and it could not be more wrong lol. and HD does sell a ton of bikes, just like anyother manufacturer. I just prefer not to support a company that debuts technology 10-15 years after its been out and yet its still compared to as #1 like fuel injection honda in 1982! hd only used it in 95 on the electraglide only, softtail didnt get it until 2001 I dont support a company that puts a premium on everything that comes standard on many other manufacturers bikes. To me a HD is like buying a northface sweater for 110$ and a 35$ columbia sweater looks exactly the same and does the same thing just my opinion

I'm not sure of the years that the Voyager had the kits installed to redirect the hot air away from the riders legs. I think the 09 and 10 required an after thought kit from Kawasaki. I may be wrong on the years. Someone with a Voyager would probably know and speak up.

Mpereira .First Thanks for posting the link and maybe help someone out looking for a new ride. 2: Congrats on the Voyager you will love it! 3: The quotes under CJ post is a joke/ribbing. We tease each other here a lot.! The way you said it was more a bashing of someone's ride! If you don't like a brand don't buy it, I have ridden HONDA;s since 71 , My NOMAD in 2008 my first Kawasaki. I didn't buy a HD in the Early years because of some issue's but still like them. But we have our own opinion on what we like and dislike, It is how you say it that can cause a shot storm! Ask Monkeyman he and I had a misunderstanding a while back, because of how things were said were misinterpreted :).. Welcome to the group you will learn a lot about your bike, Great gearheads here that will go out of their way to help.
FYI re read you post to CJ and revers the [people ! What would you think? Rant over WELCOME :)
