Hi Folks,
My name is Trevor Cleveland. I am the Tech guy at James Gaskets in Dayton Nevada. Whenever we get a new bike in I try to see what gripes if any are out there gasket wise for the bike.
We got a XG750 back in November and have yet put only 108 miles on the odometer.. the weather and other circumstances have conspired against much saddle time. But I will say that hasn't stopped me from already grinding the pegs down quite a bit. Our bike is currently at the local H-D dealership for the tank recall and a Low fuel light problem. (it stays on all the time)
its a decent little bike, all the complaints I've heard about fit and finish for it being a Harley Davidson are typically from the folks who haven't spent much time around a Japanese Bike. I'm extremely pleased with the power this plucky little bike has. and as far as gripes I only have a couple
front brake... maybe this is me coming from a XR1200 who's brakes give me that "hand of god" feel. but this bikes front brake is the worst I have ever experienced on a new bike... I hope to change that in the near future as I will be riding the living piss out of this thing
seat, comfy, but a little too far forward (I am 5'10" and I just feel crowded)
Handle Bars... these things gotta go, If I wanted to be in the down pushup position all day I wouldn't be riding a Harley....
thats it... otherwise, its a fantastic piece of machinery.
If you guys have any questions feel free to ask. and if you are looking for anything for your other Harley feel free to give me a call at 775-246-2220. I look forward to learning all I can about this bike. t
