Motorcycle Forum / General / Yamaha / June 2005I'm in love....
with the 2006 Yamaha Roadliner S, 113cid, 1854cc air-cooled V-twin thunder. I feel sorry for all the people that bought the silverado not knowing that Yamaha was releasing this new bike. i had no clue until today when i checked out the website again to drool at a Midnight Silverado and saw the Roadliner and Stratoliner models....SWEET!

I have a Venture, so I really don't care. Unless Yamaha comes out with a *better* Venture ;-) Signature"I'd far rather be happy than right any day." - Slartibartfast > with the 2006 Yamaha Roadliner S, > 113cid, 1854cc air-cooled V-twin thunder. > I feel sorry for all the people that bought the silverado not knowing that > Yamaha was releasing this new bike. > i had no clue until today when i checked out the website again to drool at a > Midnight Silverado and saw the Roadliner and Stratoliner models....SWEET! bigger is not always better.. unless you trying to do 150 mph... I like the fact that it's fuel injected, I don't like the fact that it has a catalytic converter on it that with the 2 into 1 exhaust which adds power tends to muffle the v-twin sound, so of course thats something I'd need to replace. I don't know how much tweaking would be needed for the fuel injection after that kind of change, the siverado has 1 carb, very easy to jet and adjust (don't have to balance 2 carbs)... of course with a new engine, there is always a trial period to see if any problems come up. I like an engine thats had a few years of real world experience, that way they can adjust things like adding stronger exhaust valve springs.... but thats my 2 cents ~D >> with the 2006 Yamaha Roadliner S, >> 113cid, 1854cc air-cooled V-twin thunder.

Did I really say that... there gonna pull my "there is no replacement for displacement" card.... Damnit man....i had a 2003 VTX1800 picked out for $9999.00 and then Yamaha unleashed the beast. i love the Silverado but i wanted more cubes that why i was even looking at the Honda....not any more.! There is no replacement for displacement....except nitrous...lol SignatureMad-Dog '79 Chevy K-10 Slightly modified pictures can be found here: http://mad-dog16.tripod.com/ -- >> >>> with the 2006 Yamaha Roadliner S, [quoted text clipped - 19 lines] > OH MY GOD ...
