    Center Stand (really) and Olin Forks for the 2.5s

    I saw this on FB. Can't afford the forks and a center stand seems silly for this bike (would affect clearance), but here ya go.... Here's their website, but neither is featured yet- maybe later this month. https://www.xrayproject.com/ If you join the FB group you can see the post...

    Still Good People

    Perfect day for a ride before meeting with my new girlfriend (a.k.a. second ex- wife) :whitstling: for dinner. That’s another story. I was just getting to the start of where the road snakes along a river that happened to take out many houses when Helene roared through and flooded the area. As I...

    Coolant Temperature Sensor Mystery

    Has anyone had a coolant temperature sensor go bad on the 2.5s? I was about 10 miles from home when my engine check light came on and a temperature warning. It brought up the temperature gauge and it was pegged all the way to the top (solid red)! I pulled over immediately. The bike didn't seem...

    Harley Davidson Reveals ‘MOST POWERFUL PRODUCTION BIKE EVER'

    The CVO Road Glide RR, built on Harley’s touring platform, features a 131 cubic-inch motor that produces 153 horsepower and 150 lb-ft of torque. Riders will be hard pressed to get their hands on one though, as only 131 units will be produced, while its price tag is a scorching $110,000. :roll...

    *** Be sure to watch the movie trailer below*** Faithfull dated Rolling Stones frontman Mick Jagger from 1966 to 1970. She also inspired many of Jagger’s classic Rolling Stones songs, including “Wild Horses” and “You Can’t Always Get What You Want.”...

    Goodyear Has Sold Dunlop to Another Tire Company

    "So Goodyear, Dunlop, and Sumitomo's history goes way back. Sumitomo had acquired the Dunlop rights to the Dunlop name, as well as the rights to manufacture and market Dunlops in 1985. But in that deal, it didn't acquire the actual company. It was only later that Goodyear and Sumitomo struck a...

    Lucky Survivor (Helene) - Hope Everyone Else Is OK Too

    Luckily, my house didn't sustain any significant damage, while just within a mile from me homes were completely washed away or had heavy damage from falling trees. I didn't have power or water for a solid week, but thousands of others still have neither. Fortunate to be on a well, so with power...

    2.5 3R (GT) 30k Mile Forks Service (including seals)

    The front forks are due for maintenance at 30k miles. I put mine off until 35K, but just finished and thought I’d share my notes for those who might be interested in saving some money. The manual does a fair job, but as with many other projects in this manual it jumps around wildly from section...

    2.5 using oil

    Found out my bike has been leaking oil. It's always "used oil" and I wonder if this could be where it's been going all along- seems likely. It's coming from the gear position sensor and is slow enough that it never drips beneath the bike and may only happen when the bike is running. If so, the...

    2.5 Tire Availability

    What the "heck" is up with tires and this bike? First, it was Avons (never liked 'em anyway) and now that the Metzler Cruistecs are the new official tire you can't find the rear in retailers anywhere. I just called Metzler to find out when/where and they are supposed to call me back- I'd be...

    2.5 Mystery Fork Oil

    I'm getting closer to replacing the seals in the forks on my 3R having recently gone over 30K miles. I have the seals from Triumph, but trying to determine what fork oil to use. The service manual calls for ShowaSS47G which doesn't appear to exist on the Internet, anyway. None of the equivalency...

    Latest Mod - USB on the "dash"

    I've been using a big fat USB converter on the Din outlet (never figured out what plugs in *directly* to a Din outlet, btw 🤷🏼‍♂️) and finally decided to go with a more common sense solution. This involves drilling out the aluminum housing so that it will take the larger standard size 12V USB...
