    Michelin Commander II update

    I'm still extremely pleased with the Commander II's on my bike. I run the 130-90R16 on the front. +1 for the better low speed maneuvering. Gotta love material science. Amazing that they can make a rubber compound that's tough like these are, while still providing a lot of bite in turns and in...

    Fairing for touring model (r3t)

    I found that an aftermarket fairing for a road king works great for the R3T. I just took their brackets and copied the geometry for the the top end, then extended them to match up with the posts already on the R3T's forks. Took some elbow grease, but I wanted to hard mount the whole thing...

    Towing

    Have any of you ever used the Harbor Freight 'trailer in a bag' set up that they sell? It's about $400 and it's a steel frame with an ABS cargo box on top... 78" Tag-Along Trailer - 600 Lb. Capacity

    Went to a Harley shop

    I like the style of the scrambler and all that... my only complaint is the weight. It's a beast for muscling around. With a larger flywheel and all that, though, it's easy to baby at low speeds and feather the clutch smoothly. I don't know if I'd want to hill climb on one, but logging roads and...

    Frustration Setting In !

    Hey zman8537, If you're in Chicora, Gatto's down in Tarentum just took over a Triumph dealership license. I've always had good service from them, and they definitely have competent mechanics. If a tune isn't the issue and you need a good dealer, check them out. For what it's worth, I've used...

    Air Intake Question

    @Tripps, Do you run all open like that (without a bearclaw/modified claw)? And are those the K&N 4780's?

    Towing Options for R3T

    I'm starting to tour for longer distances these days, and my wife is finally on board to travel via motorcycle. However, she has a strong tendency to bring a lot of crap with her, which is filling my tourpacks and saddlebags to the gills. I've started looking into towing with the R3T. What...

    For Sale Brand new Mustang seat

    It's a two piece seat, so depending on how you do it, you could put a 'riser' bracket on the frame to mount the seat to. If the height difference isn't significant, then you'd probably cover up the geometric change within the joint flexibility between the rider and pillon. I think it's a...

    For Sale Brand new Mustang seat

    Mustang Motorcycle Seat Construction Actually, they list either 3/16" gloss coated marine fiberglass or a 16 gauge steel baseplate. The website doesn't list Triumph under either of those catagories... All of the metric bikes seem to have fiber, though, so I'd guess that's what it is.

    For Sale Brand new Mustang seat

    According to Mustang's website, they have metal pans. Probably an easy mod to make that happen.
