  • Belt question (which buy? OEM or accessories?)

  • Demon ́s Cycle…nie again!!!!

    Hello everyone, I’ve been looking for reports about Demon ́s Cycle in the last days in the forum and now I have to say something about the Sch…. shop. The extremely nice Tom from Good old Germany is very talkative and friendly if you want to order something. So I ordered a Rolling Chassis with rims for three 300 tires and a fat fork in my youthful lightness. Delivery time after money 4 days. Only it took 2 Fu….ing months until the my money my goods were stuck at the airport for 2 weeks and now…. Everything for the garbage, because Tom ́s goods don ́t have a firm report. So I don ́t get this allowed in Germany. Great or????? And Tom suddenly doesn ́t have to answer to my emails anymore. Well, that ́s what I call a final service. So let your fingers off it, it may be totally cheap and the goods are also great in terms of quality, so I can ́t complain, but e It’s just money that you throw out the window. Love greetings and I hope you don’t buy there too and then have the crap lying around.

  • My first Harley… a real fall!

    For the information to all who want to buy a new Harley. Bin car master and have bought me in April a new Softail Deluxe. All dealers were very arrogant and arrogant. Optics of the machine super, quality miserable.First drive from the dealer home and already first defects. After 5 months it was 14!!! The most important defects: oil sweating both cylinder foot seals after 1500 km, oil filter socket leaks, fuel loss when motorcycle is in the sun, jerking in driving operation In the 2nd and 3rd gear, exhaust tube chrome cover throws bubbles, lost screws on the rear silencer, Lambda probes lots, alarm system horns sporadically………. etc. I then made clear to the dealer that I don’t want to keep this bike but change it, this he refused rough!!!!!!!!!Are also only minor defects…;-(With the help of a lawyer I have now changed this motorcycle.Would like to publish the dealer name here, but my RA advised me off. Can only advise against this brand. …..or are other Softail Deluxe better??

  • Should I change the handlebar style on my 88′ softail?

    Have now since 1995 (actually also satisfied) the V-Team T7 handlebar on my old 88′ Softail on it and would now like to try another handlebar style, which however fits to the Softail. But which? For example, maybe a small ape with the highest 30cm total height incl. riser and again the original Sissybar, a Sweden Style handlebar, a 30cm Z-lenker, Wishbone, or similar would be in my mind. Would anyone have a good idea or suggestion for me? „ I would still have 100mm Riservoir by Müller for the conversion. A high ape (over 30cm), a Buckhorn, Old Style, Butterfly, Superbike etc. is not in question for me. Images of handlebars rebuilt during the time great and would be happy to see if it could fit for the Softail.

  • Purchase advice Cadillac SLS Model 99

    Hello dear community I would urgently need your advice when buying a car. I am interested in a Cadillac SLS EZ: 2001 BJ according to FIN 1999 The vehicle is completely check-booked Has received last year on the rear axle new dampers from the states installed. The front wheel bearings were changed due to error indicator. The vehicle has now currently 136000 km on the clock. According to the owner and also from the shown invoice were seen with the vehicle with 76000 km the cylinder cop After I called the workshop to make sure I was told that only the seals were changed and not the kit for the threads, as the known problem probably did not exist. The owner is about 50 years and said that he used the car only for cruising and did not kick the vehicle either. TüV acceptance was in July without complaints. Purchase price is 4500,- Euro I am not sure now, since the kit because of d it was not installed thread, whether I should dare. Maybe one of you can give me some advice. Would be very grateful to you

  • Ami Oldtimer cheap offer – pay attention to what?

    Hello, Actually I already have an oldtimer (Mercedes), but as it is, one looks here and there, what the market offers so… I found in the net a (m.M.n.) very cheap Ami-Oldtimer (EZ before 1970) with V8. On the few pictures it looks good and it stands here in Germany. The description says only that the engine runs and the transmission switches and that in correct German (which already calms down). I do not want to share the advertisement itself or the exact vehicle type. until I get a viewing date or decide to leave my fingers off it – there are certainly others on the lookout. (: I look again and again for Ami-Oldtimers, but the whole thing comes very spontaneously. I have already read into the purchase advice of the respective vehicle and will continue to research there. But in the area Ami I am an absolute newcomer.I have often heard that there is much more to be paid attention to with the Americans (especially with imports) I would now like to find out whether the car has all the papers (has an import at all vehicle registration and letter?) and whether it is an import. If it is an import, I would like to ask if: – car is customs duty – car has been upgraded to DE standards – car is already registered in DE / was also I want to know if the car is in original condition or what has been changed. What is the difference between the car and the car? do you think that sounds so good? Otherwise I would like to check the VIN for accident damage and make sure that the car is not stolen – how do I do that the easiest way?Do you have further clues for me, which I have to pay attention to in order not to get knocked over? – ami-specific things that strongly affect the vehicle value? – legal problems that should be clarified? – things that endanger the registration? – more? Since the car makes a solid impression and I am sceptical about the fact that I have to pay attention to the rust and condition of the vehicle. I am also aware that vintage car parts are not quite cheap, I know thanks to the Mercedes. I am looking forward to your help!
