  6. Just ordered a 205/60/16 Altimax HP

    I thought so too Rainman, the M/T had I think 4 and 4. That seemed like a lot to me. Maybe the rim is a little off. IDK. It's smooth now.
  7. Just ordered a 205/60/16 Altimax HP

    I've got the same tire and run 34 psi, and same bike. With 2,000 miles I can't tell a bit of differance from the Metz. I'm 'bout 200 lbs, if that makes adifferance. It won't slip or slide, I did a tank slapper predawn one morning goin to work on a wet road with the Metz, the c/t ain't gonna do...
  8. Natc to Nash D/S

    Natchez MS to Nashville Tn, the Natchez trace. 1,100 miles on the darkside, no issues at all. General Altimax 205/60/16 and Dunlop 404 150/80/16. Riding 2 up was the same as with a m/c. It's not an exciting ride just country backroads, with a speed limit of 50 mph, no stop signs or signals for...
  9. Driver Back Rest

    Anyone know where or if there is a driver backrest for an '08 R3 Tourer? It needs to fit the stock seat, don't know the part number. Aftermarket or Triumph will do. I think I can modify and install and maybe rework the pan I have, I've seen those with three metal tabs on the bottom. But the...
  10. Darkside on a touring? What size!

    I just went darkside about a week ago, General Altimax 205/60/16. For the most part I can't tell a differance. There is a very small differance when taking off say from a stop sign, you are turning left or right at a slow speed, during the last few feet of the turn the bike wants to stand...

  13. Need R tire; gotta remove rear wheel

    Got my darkside Altimax 205/60 mounted and balanced yesterday, $126. I'll be reinstalling on the beast this evening. I have a question about greasing, picked up a tube of Honda moly 60. Do you grease only the splines and axle, or do you remove the cover on the wheel and grease the rubbers too...
  14. Insides of TORS

    I bought TOR's and installed and the dealer tuned for them. I was the same and wanted a little more sound. So I gutted my stock mufflers and put them back on, it can be done without blueing the outside, I used a two inch hole saw and the victor smoke wrench. It does sound different, a little...
