  1. This stuff is great!

    If they have gun shows where you are there are usually guys there making these custom plugs for around $20, and you get to try them for fit before you buy.
  2. Triumph Fog Lights

    motolites Got em, love em, wouldn't ride without them. The brake caliper mounts are nice because they turn with you, into the turn. I need to try the 50 watt bulbs and I understand you can put up to 75 watts in them. The bulbs are standard M11 bulbs you can find anywhere (Home Depot...

  9. Re break-in, etc, on a new R3

    Day two, 320 miles: What a sweet machine. I hate to dismount but, rain coming this week end so I'll have time to get some good wax on the Rocket and treat the saddle bags with some good leather goo. A question for you experienced captains: does shifting get any smoother with more miles? I'm...
