Just wondering who will be the first?

We have I think 100% from the Cafe so far but we are starting to get indexed on Google and Yahoo....so who's the first and I wonder when?

Here is my new Stateline. What a nice ride. I've had it about 6 weeks. We have had 32 straight days of rain so have not been riding much. Quite a different ride from my 2003 VTX. Handles different because of the wheel base being longer. Looking to do some performance mods and put some miles on it. It does not have near the power the VTX had. Later Jon

Welcome to the forum, you are getting in on the ground floor and it may take some time to get everything rolling like our other VTX Forum.

I am sure that with the FI that with proper pipes and air box and a programmer you will be able to get more out of it.

Yes I'm sure with some tuning it will wake up nicely. I hope the VT forums get as much attention as the VTX forums do. Time will tell. I'll be watching. Thanks Jon

Cool, Jon I think you are the first owner of the new bikes to join! Found us on Google too, awesome. It will be slow to start but it will be nice to have your own forums without having to sort throught all the VTX stuff.

Welcome to the site!

Welcome to the forum! Nice bike!

Don't just watch, post up some information and show us your new mods as you get them done.

Here are the mods I have done so far. Grips, throttle lock, billet fork nut covers, and billet dipstick. More to come. Thanks Jon

Looking good, too bad they changed the spacing on the bars or we could use the fat bars on ours.

Yea, a forum is slow to start, I did some advertising at Google but with little results....looking for other options on getting the ball rolling so to speak.

I can't believe we don't have more traffic on here yet. There are a lot of the new bikes out there. Hopefully those guys will find the site soon. I picked up my new pipes, tuner and air cleaner today. I'm stoked to install them, but I'll have to wait until probably around April or so. The wifes car takes up most of the garage so no room to move the bike out of the corner. I bought all the Cobra components. I sure hope it will run better. I don't like the stock performance of the bike. My VTX ran way better. I do like the looks of the Stateline better than the VTX though.
Abbotdog, do you have the tuner on your bike as well as the pipes? How does it run?
Big X, When I try to post pics it shows me an error every time. It looks like I have used all of my upload quota. can that be reset?

I have my bike in storage right now at my local dealer. I also thought my VTX 1300c had more power than my stateline. To answer your question I just ordered the Cobra black intake and the FI2000 for my bike. The shop is going to install them as soon as they come in. Unfortunately I wont get to test ride untill the snow goes away. But I am willing to bet that with these 3 products combined I am going to see significant power gains at all ranges. I cant hardly stand it. Its only mid January and I have the itch to ride really bad...

Sounds like we will have the same setups except mine is all chrome on the black bike. Make sure to post pics when its all done. I've got about 2 feet of snow in my yard now. It has warmed up though. It was about 10 below for the last few weeks now it is in the 20's during the day.

I'm still riding down here in Panama City Beach, not as much as I would like and had hoped for though. I have the cobra powerflow air intake, I2000 and pipes on my Interstate and not only does it look good, but it has added power to my ride; not certain how much though. It has a deep throaty rumble that is very satisfying. Still get no respect from Harley Riders though, oh well they bought what they wanted to ride and I bought what I wanted. Just need some risers for the bars and maybe some lowers for the windshield and I'll be set. Can see a photo of my ride on the VT1300CT forum under done for now post if you care to take a peek.

That looks pretty sweet. I have a buddy at work that has the blue interstate. I had to call him and have him look at your bike. He wants to do the same things to his. We have another 4 months before we can ride. I can't wait.

I'm glad this forum has started. Wading through the other topics and bikes is interesting but I usually like to go straight to info relating to my bike.
I took a huge leap about 2 weeks ago and traded in my GL1800 for a 2010 Stateline (0 miles on odometer). This is a vey fun m/c and I'm really starting to become a fan of the V-twin engine.
Thanks for starting a forum for the VT1300.
