    Maggie Valley, NC August 7th-9th

    Not looking too bad, actually. Right now thinking of joining the Friday morning ride and camping nearby. What's the route Friday? Any plans yet?

    Soft luggage

    For a small bag I run a strap under the seat and up and over the bag. For large dry bags, etc I also tap into the backrest. I’d think you want to add one of those for anything of size

    I've been using the FOBO system for years and know a lot of other members here use it as well.

    Exhaust options

    I think we rode Devil's Triangle after your stint in the ICU- you mentioned a crash. Having ridden with you I can say that your idea of staying off the ragged edge is still way beyond the ragged edge for many. I went down after that (much more lucky + air vest) and have also learned a little...

    Wanting confirmation... Rear wheel ticking...

    Great advice. After that you could pull the wheel and rotate bearings with your fingers. Bad will usually be locked with your limited force, hard to turn, or rough. There's a lot of conversation about how tight to actually torque that axle (below spec), as the bearings tend to go out and its...

    Chigee remote wire/ fuse tap/din

    I have a "dash" cam system I installed that turns on when the bike powers up. I believe (?) it was the license plate light that I tapped into- in any event, this wire is only hot at startup. Hope this helps... This is located under the seat, left side, a green wire with white markings, in with...

    Airbags - an update

    The older version actually offers better protection, but as you said it's a little heavier and warmer. The new ones allow you to change the canister yourself. One reason the Alpinestars are so popular is that there is no monthy or yearly subscription. Buy it (new or older version) and you're...

    Airbags - an update

    So, I realize this is a personal choice- do whatever you think is best. I guess I’ll start with this to head off any controversy. If you’re “against airbags,” then this is not the post for you- why you decided to click on it, not sure, but read on if you’re curious and open-minded. Once upon a...

    Highest mileage 2500?

    My 2020 3R just went past 50K miles. Let's just say the sides of my tires wear down well before the middle here in twisty land (western NC), so Roxanne gets her ears yanked back routinely. I load mine for camping regularly. The Roadster accommodated gear more easily, but with the panniers and...
