| Adrian welcome to the best Silverwing on the web. If you are looking forward to learning and plan on doing your own maintenance you'll find you can do anything you need or want with the service manual and help from this forum. I add the paragraph below for most new members because there's a lot of information in the links and may save you some work. Here are some links(3 below in blue)that will help you learn a lot about your Silverwing. If you can't find what you need in the links below the search on this forum works good, and if you still need help just ask and someone will do what they can to answer your questions.

| Welcome to the sire, enjoy the ride. I have an 11. I love mine, I'm sure you'll love yours. First mod, remove the light bulb from the underseat compartment. This will save you a walk home. |

| Welcome Adrian!
We are practically neighbors. I live in Arlington and ride an 07 Swing. I've had it for about 3 years now and I've made quite a few mods to mine. Hit me up if you ever want to go for a ride.

Adrian Now that's an optimistic title to your message. But taken care of properly, your "first" Silverwing should last a long time before you may ever need or want a "second" Silverwing (or 3rd if you end up collecting them) Enjoy the one you have... And welcome to the forum. |
