  1. HELP I HAVE PHOTOS BUT NOT A CLUE HOW TO DOWNLOAD THEM - CAN SOMEONE EMAIL ME [email protected] AND I WILL EMAIL PICS TO THEM - CAN THEY THEN POST A NEW THREAD AS 'TERMINATORS XVS950' Thanks.
  2. How the devil do I attach photo's .....I want to post a couple of pics of my 950 !! Being a I.T numpty I hav'nt a clue!! Help please. Terminator
  3. Hi thats just a parts manual, Service/repair manual is whats required - can you post that on forum?
  4. Hi , yes I'm UK, Your mileage 2000 ? , tappets do not need adjusting until 12,000 miles !!! If you go in tinkering with valve clearances yer warranty will be void !!! If you think there's a problem take it back to dealer under warranty, thats what its there for....I had a Cobra on mine, was just to loud and messes up the fueling without a Power Commander or Cobra Fuel management, and £ per power gain it just ain't worth the money.. Hope sun shines soon !! Cheers Steve.
  5. How do I down load a picture ??? Cheers Terminator.
  6. Just wondered how any fellow owners are getting on with their 950's - any mods, problems, warranty work etc... Mines done 1000 miles now, returning 57 mpg average ( worst 55mpg, best 59.5mpg) Performance not bad considered the low power output 112mph indicated ( about 100 actual mph) - Speedo is a good 10% out compared with GPS, Done the silencer mod on mine and fitted K&N air filter after doing the airbox mod ( now breathes cool air, against hot air from between the cylinders) - Looking forward to hearing from you .... Cheers The Terminator.
  7. Hi Buy One , you will love it, see my post. Terninator. quote name='Cov_AL' date='08 December 2009 - 09:28 PM' timestamp='1260307683' post='109588'] I'm thinking it's time to do away with the the Custom 650 Dragstar, and the only bike that's really taking my fancy is the 950... Slight problem is - I don't fancy spending £7000 without taking a test ride, but I can't find anywhere that's demo'ing one. So, if you own one - can you give me any reasons I might not want one?? so far I've only got: - I'd rather have foot pegs rather than footboards... How are they in the wet? Can you throw them around as much as you could the 650?? Done any mods? (Santa might need a little financial help this year...)
  8. Hi to all you XVS950 owners,how are you getting on with yours? any problems?warranty claims?what mods? etc... Here's a brief overview of my XVS950 Bought new September - Miles 1000 Average MPG = 57 (WORST 55mpg BEST 59mpg) Maximum speed seen on Speedo = 112mph ( speedo over reads by approx 11%) True top speed around 100mph. Warranty work - Had speedo senser changed under warranty due to the over read - new is exactly the same. Mods. K&N air filter,Air box modified to pull in fresh cool air from under air box, silencer drilled out using 1" core drill and 14" extension, Cobra lighting bar with pr of 4" bates lights, rider back rest, puig screen, chrome upper belt guard, chrome side stand (off 1100 dragstar), chrome brake caliper cover trims, studded tank bib, yamaha fender trim set, highway hawk chrome side stand switch cover, chromed brake reservoir top, highway hawk indicator visor set, all allen key heads fitted with chromed caps. Bike is a great laugh to ride and very comfortable, footboard scrapping now perfected(great fun), 5th gear is a little to high as not fully happy to pull 5th cleanly until over 40mph. Finish looks to be very good but have invested in lots of ACF50 to protect it, may decide to underseal both mudguards to prevent any future rot setting in. Looking forward to hearing from you all. Terminator.
  9. Good choice in Black,same as mine that I picked up new on 1st day of the 59 Plate, I came from a ZX10R onto this bike but I love it ( totally different riding style and comfort) Fuel economy is amazing average of 57 mpg and a reasonable turn of speed (indicated 112mph is your lot,given speedo error its about a ton actual)shame weather is so crappy to put on more miles (now at 1000 miles). HAPPY CHRISTMAS TO YOU ALL Steve.
