    longer ride soreness

    I'm sure i'll regret it, but I think I'm going to trade her in for the bmw r1200 gsa. Bone stock that thing was totally comfortable for my body ergo's. like zonechamp said, i don't want to keep throwing money at it, hoping something works for me. I wish i could afford to keep both.

    longer ride soreness

    I've got the risers already, and they do help to some degree. Maybe I'll try the backrest next

    longer ride soreness

    So, when I go for 4-8 hour rides on the rocket, I usually come home really stiff and sore, especially around the back, shoulders and neck. I just figured this would happen on any motorcycle. Well, I rented a bmw r1200 gs adventure, while on vacation in colorado last week, and rode for about 8...

    LED Headlights

    I'm using knockoffs from ebay and they work great, super bright! Only problem was they wouldn't work with the inner ring inside the headlight assembly. I ended up using weather seal foam from home depot instead, worked like a charm.

    What does the "12 minute tune" do?

    Added some LED's

    Ha ha, you guys are too much! Rear ended... The power cord is infinetly long! Nah its for my trickle charger. The brake lights are on a flasher, don't remember which kind. I switched out the main tail light for an led I got on superbrightleds.com.

    Added some LED's

    added some new LED strip lights in strategic places to increase visibility. The thought of being rear ended while at a stoplight or blind sided scares the crap out of me! What do you all think? Is it too much?

    Need recommendations for second motorcyle to replace ST1300

    I'm in the same boat, looking for an adventure tourer. I"ve test ridden the bmw R1200 GSA, Ducati multistrada enduro, and KTM 1290 super adventure. The ducati was the most comfortable, ktm would need a new seat and some risers, but was awesome. The BMW is the most tried and true, but I found it...

    Thinking to buy 2014 Roadster

    You know they only paid low book on it, if that. I'd say you have a lot of room to negotiate. 10k out the door would seem like a fair price to me.

    Test Rode a Ducati Multistrada Enduro and KTM 1290 SA

    Believe me, I'm a triumph fan, and I would love to go with another one, so I will be giving it a close look. I've actually been to a couple of shops and no one has the 2016 yet, all I've found were left over 2015's. I do wish they would have gone with the 8 gallon fuel tank like the bmw gsa...

    Test Rode a Ducati Multistrada Enduro and KTM 1290 SA

    I still need to try the new triumph explorer 1200. On paper its not very imptessive, hp/torque compared to the others.
