Hi gang. I am going to pick up a used '07 TBA on Monday. It has a scant 650 miles, and is fresh from its first service. It has an air eliminator kit and shorty off-road exhaust installed by the dealer. This will be my first "smaller" cruiser. I am used to the likes of Honda VTX1800 & Honda Valkyrie, and before that numerous Harleys. The first thing I want to put on it is a windshield - if I want to get buffeted, I go skydiving (I have 657 jumps). I want something that I can see over, but that keeps the wind off of my face. As I searched around the forum, I saw a URL to Windvest, and they seem to have nice units. BTW, if anyone has one, does the 14" model accomplish my mission? Anyway, any recommendations for a good, quality sport windshield would be appreciated.
Also, what vendor(s) offer the best price on aftermarket goodies like grips, pegs, chrome, etc?
I haven't seen the user manual yet, and perhaps these things are covered, but I have never owned a bike with a chain (other than bicycle - which I ride 300 miles a week), and I wonder where I can find a good tutorial on chain maintenance (how often, how to do it, etc,).
Are there any other tach kits available other than the OEM one that mounts horizontally rather than up front with the speedo?
Is there any goodie(s) that I should know about that are must haves? I am one of those nut cases that puts everything but the kitchen sink on my bikes.
I appreciate your help and input. I am in the St. Petersburg, FL area. Thanks.
Oh, and yes, who makes a good looking set of risers for the TBA that can be installed without modifying cables?
