    X-Country And Back

    My Big Red bike used to sip nicely at 40 to 45 MPG on a road trip. After the NLR 200+ HP kit I never see those numbers anymore. Now more like 32 to 36/38 mpg. I have not figured out the GT yet. But I get about 140 miles on a tank before I fill up. It never seams to take more than 4 gallons...

    Crazy ignition skip under load

    @Frosty Rider It has been over 5 months. How has this "skip" worked out ?

    Swing arm pivot bolt, nut loose

    Mine needed a few degrees of rotation to snug up to torque. Thanks for the warning.

    X-Country And Back

    On my reacent trip to the Canadian Rockies with 3 of my buddies, I rode my 2024 Tiger 900 GT. I did the MPG on the 1st fuel buy. It was about 54 MPG. I decided that was good enough. My buddy riding on my 2022 1200 T120 Bonneville did the hyper miling thing. He tracked every fuel buy. He...

    Map suggestion - R3 2005

    20228 is a great tune for your setup. I used it in mine for years before installing the NLR 200 HP kit. In fact, it is the base tune for my current setup. Send me a PM with your email address and I'll try to send you some of my tunes. Bill.

    Exhaust experts/engine experts - I need your valuable inputs here

    I beleive a longer pipe assists in acheiving higher torque numbers.

    Thank You Mr. Penner

    Well it has been some time since doing this little trick Neville told me on a phone call. In the head or block ( can't remember just where) is an oil feed port that has a removable "stint" that controls the oil flow to the head and particularly the cams. The stint has an allen key inner so it...
