    Center Stand

    When the stand is up, as in the top picture, it looks like it has been coming into contact with the bottom of the shock bracket and this has resulted in some of the paint being worn off of the shock bracket bottom. Is this correct? Can you hear the stand hitting against the bottom of the shock...

    It's all good Steven. Dealer added a little coolant and put on my high windshield. Service manager did the work. Good guy. I dig the high windshield. Cold here today. Had this done today.

    MJC. I was wrong on that. I þook the bike to the dealer this morning to have the coolant reservoir tank filled to the proper level and they told me that the first oil change is at 600 miles.

    I häve the online manual and want to buy a hard copy. I am brining it in, but they want you to drop it off, which I am not going to do. I will bring a container and ask them to put some coolant in the container if they tell me to drop it off. My truck is at the garage for service right now. I...
