    Things I should do when removing the fuel tank?

    I plan to replace spark plugs and air filter soon. Is there anything else I should do while the tank is off. Is there a fuel filter? Thanks

    Interesting oil level check

    I have been waiting on brake pads to come in the mail so I haven't been riding my bike for 3 or 4 days. The other day I decided I was going to check the oil then see how long it took for the level on the dip stick to change from what the level actually is to gage how long after checking the oil...

    How many miles you get out your rear pads

    I have about 8,500 miles on my bike and the rear pads are at their limit. Whats your average mileage you get out of your pads? My front pads look pretty good still, I do use my rear brake quite a bit. I've also noticed the floating rear rotor seems to be a lot looser than it used to be and is...

    How much does tracton control limit racing?

    I've never road my bike with the traction control off. It seems like it doesn't noticeably limit the bike while racing from a stop light. Then again I've never tried it without traction control to know any better. Does anyone have experience trying to go as fast as possible from a stop with...

    Noticed this on the display today

    Riding home from work I was low on gas and usually when it gives you the warning you press the toggle to clear it. This time I was too busy with traffic to worry about it and noticed eventually it pops up the estimated fuel range and gives you real time fuel economy. Just thought that was...

    Having some fun in traffic

    If they ask, you gotta give it to them. A little fun in some slow moving traffic.

    How I mounted my insta 360 to my bike

    Here is how I have my insta 360 mounted so I can see completly around me. This setup has held up to going 90mph. You have to get the action stick which is specially made to hold up to the wind resistance. I also have one mounted to my front handle bar that I use occasionally. I have 1/8 grip...

    Found a solution to my big ugly backrest

    decided I'm going to buy a Honda gl1800 to help with my wifes riding discomfort. It will be good for both her and me for longer rides and I can return my back sissy bar to its factory pad. I doubt she will ever wanna ride on the rocket after taking a ride on the goldwing. Going to look at the...

    Noticed RPM raises slightly when letting clutch out

    Recently noticed when you let the clutch out without adding any throttle the RPM increases 100 or so RPM on its own. Kinda interesting since all other bikes I've owned the RPM drops as you let the clucth out.

    Interesting fuel octain discrepancy I found.

    So I looked up my manual on triumphs webpage using my vin number and it shows to use 89 octain or hogher. I looked in the physical book the bike came with and it says 87 octain or higher. Also noticed the online version seems to have more pages than the book I have although I don't know what...

    Wife hates the stock backrest.

    Decided I'd try my hand at making a custom backrest thats taller for her since she is used to a goldwing back seat. It's not the prettiest and I will eventually recover it with material that goes all the way down. I will probably replace the pad since I kinda messed it up but for just throwing...

    Got a insta 360 x5 today

    Decided I wanted to film while riding and the insta 360 was the most versatile. Bought the motorcycle mounting kit with it. Should be fun to mess around with. I have it mounter to the license plate bracket and a zip tie running to the middle of the stick from the sissy bar. Anyone else have...

    Differential oil after 2000 miles

    Changed my differential oil today which I'll be posting a video on eventually. This is how it looks after 2000 miles. I always change it when I change my emgine oil since its cheap and a easy procedure. Last thing on my maintanance list to do will be lubing the drive shaft splines.

    Pretty sure traction control saved me today.

    I live on a dirt road which is pretty muddy right now from the snow melting. I pulled onto the paved street and gave it a bit to much gas not thinking about my rear tire is probably coated in mud and cold. the bikes rear end slid sideways enough that I was probably leaned over at a 45 degree...
