    Tire repair kit

    I have the Stop n Go tire plugger kit as well and a Cycle Pump Air Compressor. I have not needed to use either of them for flat tires due to also using Ride-On tire sealant. In more than 11 years and over 200,000 miles of riding, I have never had a flat using this stuff. I once replaced a rear...

    Florida Riders, I promise to show you a good time

    The weather was perfect. Sunny and temps in the mid 70's. I believe the roads we went on today to be some of the best roads in the state of Florida for twisties, sweepers, rolling hills, and scenery. While all of the roads we hit before lunch were good, the most fun were Istachatta Road-Trails...

    Hi from the UK

    Welcome from Florida. I am also in my sixties and believe this will be my forever bike. It has been an awesome bike for the 7.5 months I have had it.

    Want additional driving lights to come on with stock R3T driving lights

    Well, I figured it out. I touched the power wire for the relay to each leg of the relay for the stock riding lights while it was partially pulled out of the socket yet in enough to make contact. Turning the switch for the stock driving lights on/off, I discovered the white wire coming out of the...

    Want additional driving lights to come on with stock R3T driving lights

    I have a 2014 R3T. I have added some additional driving lights. They are on their own circuit with a relay. I want the relay to turn on the additional driving lights when I turn on the stock driving lights. I have found the purple wire that is the power for the stock driving lights coming out of...

    Wow! How could those rear fender rails get bent so much?! Did it get dropped on its end?!

    Sad day

    There have been a lot of losses lately. It is sad that you now have to go through this as well. Hang in there.

    Florida Riders, I promise to show you a good time

    Looking at the forecast for Saturday, 12/1 the chances of rain are pretty high, especially in the afternoon. For those coming from the south, the chances are even higher for when you would be coming up or going back home. Therefore, the ride will be postponed to the next Saturday, 12/8. Right...

    2.5L Rocket Stroker Engine Kit with 6 Speed Transmission (R&D)

    I am so impressed with what you are doing! I cannot even begin to think through everything you are working out/considering, much less carrying out. I am looking forward to the outcome.

    Florida Riders, I promise to show you a good time

    Am I to understand that you have freed 4 (!) motorcycles from the frigid reaches of the North?! Is this the Underground Railroad for motorcycles? :roll:

    Its cold

    One of our members, @Bedifferent, makes some wind deflectors which attach to a windshield and deflect the wind from one's hands. Those who use them say they are very effective. See here. This might be something to consider if you use a windshield.

    Motorcycle reliability

    First bike was a 2007 Suzuki Boulevard C50 bought new. Had problems with it just dying. Spent $$ trying to get it fixed at different dealers. No luck with any of them and none of them stood behind their work. Bought a 2009 Kawasaki Nomad in 2010 with 4,300 miles on it. Put 100,000 miles on it in...

    Question about voltage output and the SH847AA rectifier

    Thanks for the response @Bedifferent. The CVS indicates the OEM R/R is charging between 13.2 and 14.6 volts while under way. My voltmeter indicates it is charging at 14.3 volts at idle and with increased RPMs with no load and with driving lights on and headlight on high beam.

    Its cold

    I have the Aerostich Elkskin Gauntlet gloves lined with Merino wool and they do keep my hands warm. However, once the temps dip below 60˚F, I have not found any gloves that will keep my hands warm. I just do not have enough blood flow in my hands. That is when the electric glove liners come into...

    Question about voltage output and the SH847AA rectifier

    I put the stock R/R back in and sent the SH847AA to Jack Fleming at roadstercycle.com for him to check it out. I found his site through a search of the internet. He sells these and other Shingdegen R/Rs, including kits for installing them on various bikes. He also has a series of videos on how...
