Congrats on the bike, I also have a VTX1300R and love it. Sometimes backing it up into a space is a bit of a task, especially towards the end of the day. Never cut your bars too much, regardless of the size of the bike, it will end up on the floor. Make sure that you are wearing oil resistant boots,...

Honking doesn't bother me, but once they invade my personal space and start tailgaiting, then it's a problem. Remember the one with the most lug nuts wins. A couple of options: a. Change lanes and let them pass if they are to dumb to figure it out for themselves. b. If you can't change lanes turn of...

Re: Neutral at Stoplights?
On a side note, today at a stoplight I couldn't seem to shift from neutral to 1st. I did the normal motion but it seemed stuck or something and took me several tries.
