General Discussion / Re: 2015 V7 -> 2021 E5 luggage rack

« Last post by Kev m on Today at 02:39:48 PM »

Off the top of my head I too am pretty sure that a luggage rack from a MKI V7 won't fit a III or IV (850). I'm not sure if it would fit a Mk II, it might though.

I believe it has to do with changes to the rear suspension/shock towers and possibly fender attachment points that were changed at least by the time of the mkIIIs.

Not that I'm in the market but...Florida bike.  Man, I learned the hard way to never buy any machine that's been sitting in Florida anywhere near the coast.  You never see the rust and pitting till you get it home...then, Ugh!

I think that's the same place I used to get a title for my 70 Ambo in the 80's. They basically buy your bike & sell it back to you w/title.

General Discussion / Re: V85TT Heat shields issue

« Last post by aproud1 on Today at 01:33:38 PM »

I haven't experience any issues with the heat shield but that is probably because my dealer changed to different bolts when setting up my 85. He said the stock bolts tend to be an issue for whatever reason.

Can't help finding your part across the pond there but I think you are looking for Part Number 876879

Dexter Ford wrote the original story as credited.  I've lost touch with him and didn't know he was fired due to his writing on this subject.

I remember reading it the first time, 30+ years ago.
