    Metzler Cruisetec vs. Avon Cobras

    Quick revisit on this oft discussion...which are better? My '25 Storm OEM are Avons, yet the Metz were stated to be the improved replacements on recent R3s. My tires will need to be replaced this summer. Thanks in advance.

    What Ryder safety tip helped you today?

    Mine - in a round about, I noticed that an approaching car drivers head was blocked by his A pillar, and might not see me about to be in his path, so I slowed and did a quick horn honk, he stopped in time. Defensive, proactive driving wins again; 🏆

    Installed Fiamm Free-Way Blaster horn today. Used OEM bracket and connectors. Only had to slightly twist and straighten bracket and bend connectors away from engine a bit. The new horn threaded post is shorter than OEM horn, so needed to split rubber grommet (like cutting a bagel) to make it...

    DIN to USB Adapter Suggestions

    Looking to get an adapter for the OEM DIN plug at the triple tree. Has anyone used one, and how tall do they stick out from the socket when inserted? I see some have customized the socket from DIN to USB, but just want to use an adapter for now.

    OEM Saddlebags & Brackets R3 R Storm

    Installed yesterday. Thinking of powder coating brackets black. Bags are a bit disappointing, closures, zippers, locking (luggage style), barrel lock mechanism (fell apart while trying to transfer from storage collar to bag - reconstructed fine though), overall construction durability, for the...
