2002 Voyager XII
Hopefully it worked this time. This is my new ride. Got it around Thanksgiving. I put 75 miles on it on Christmas eve day. That's all the miles I've been able to do between it being winter in West Michigan and me being an OTR trucker. Just over 44,000 miles on it. Previous bike was a 2009 HD Electra Glide Standard. Lots of difference in the two bikes. Voyager is 100 lbs lighter and around 30 more hp from specs I've read. I noticed both right away. The Voyager is SO smooth. I was doing 80 mph in the blink of an eye and my eyeballs weren't vibrating. It's gonna get new tires before Spring. I'm thinking Avon or Metzler. Very quiet too. Gonna take a little getting used to but so far so good.

Re: 2002 Voyager XII
Actually when I looked the picture doesn't show. looking at the link it looks like you are missing some brackets. Just go in and edit and make the beginning brackets look like the "img" brackets at the end and it should do it. I copy and pasted out the http info and saw your bike (looks real nice) so that part works.hotrodpappy wrote:Welcome aboard Very nice looking XII
Welcome to the party!!!!!!!!!
PS. I am trying the Avon's after 2 sets of E3's. The Dunlop E3's are great for mileage and overall, but I have heard the Avon Cobra's give better wet traction and you don't loose much on the E3's in mileage (over 20K each for both sets and pulling trailer quite a bit).

Re: 2002 Voyager XII
Bike has a real nice shine to her....
Hope you don't mind if I help out here a little and post these for you.
Seems to be the link for your ALBUMS and the photos need to be
reduced in size also to be viewed in the forum. I picked just the two that I like
I likes that nice clear windshield...

PS. are you in need of a radio antenna ?

Your dimensions are reversed you have them as 508x900 needs to be 900x508 then it should work
also when you post the link make sure that is is between the [img]---link_goes_here--[/img]

Re: 2002 Voyager XII
From upload options go to ( upload size options )
then find ( customize upload options )
select ( 640 x 480 )
Here is the link to their FAQ on the subject to read up on.
http://support.photobucket.com/hc/en-us ... ze-Options" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
If you right click on the photos of your bike that I posted and select ( view image info ) you will see that they are 638 x 361 . but also I am using a different site, ie. tinypic . com I chose 640x480 but the site adjusts it some but not to exceed 640 x480
Hope this helps
You want to add in-between the [IMG] 's each photo , not the album path statement . Give that a try.
