    Dead Alternator?

    Bike tried to warn me this morning... Hit the starter and just get a click and the display goes out. 2nd try it fired right up. Figured it was a fluke and rode to work. Sure enough, go to ride home and bike won't start Display turns on normally enough but when I hit the starter, It just...

    Tank Decals

    So the wife has one of those vinyl cutting machines. I cut myself a set of tank decals in matte black. It's subtle and I think I like it. I've seen these same decals selling online for ~$150. Cost me about $1 in vinyl. Thumbs up or thumbs down people?

    Oops!

    Careful out there boys and girls... apparently a Lamonster garage tail tidy, combined with an Exedra Maxx, probably with not enough pre-load can cause this. Surprise actually it didn't happen a while ago since this tire is near end of life and is effectively smaller than it used to be...

    Replacing rubber on heated grips

    Does anybody know if it's possible to replace the rubber grips on the heated grips? With 20k+ miles on mine, they're starting to degrade and I'm wondering if I have to buy a complete assembly or I can just replace the rubber.

    Pegs slippery when wet

    Maybe it's just my riding boots, but whenever the pegs get wet, they are dangerously slippery. Anybody put replacement pegs on? What are the aftermarket options?

    Has anyone changed an O2 sensor?

    Has anybody changed an O2 sensor on this bike? Installing the Werkes exhaust this weekend the O2 had apparently been installed in the stock exhaust without any anti-sieze. It galled and then sheared. Unfortunately they're back ordered nation wide but I found a used one on ebay (tiger 900 shares...

    Fender Eliminator Super Thread

    I've decided I really want to install a fender eliminator kit and new smaller turn signals. There's a bunch of fragmented threads and posts on here about various solutions and approaches but I figure I'd try to pull it all together into a single thread for both myself and for future rocketeers...

    Loose Rear Turn Signals

    Has anybody else had an issue with this? I had a rattle coming from my rear turn signal assembly so I asked the dealership to take a look at it during a recent warranty service. They said that it's definitely loose as well as one of the lenses is loose. They said there is no ability to...

    Lost a heat shield 🤬

    Parked my bike in the garage after my ride home yesterday and noticed my middle exhaust header heat shield is simply gone. Upon further inspection, the other ones can move a little bit with just finger tip pressure. I unscrewed the others and notice that there is a nut that's spot welded into...

    Catching Neutral

    Ok, let's be honest here... how often do y'all catch neutral accidentally? For me, for whatever reason it's been happening a lot more over the past couple of weeks. Always when I'm accelerating aggressively and it's terribly embarrassing to rev bomb that first shift when you're trying to blast...

    Quick-shifter stopped upshifting

    Having an odd issue with my quick-shifter. It still downshifts fine, but it stopped upshifting. No issues with normal clutched upshifts. It's still enabled in the menus and I also tried disabling it and re-enabling it with no effect. Any thoughts or off to the dealership I go?

    Run premium fuel?

    I've always used premium (91 R+M/2 in Arizona) and been happy with the performance over the past 7k miles. Just idly flipping through the manual though and I noticed it only calls for 87 knock index fuel. When I purchased, my service manager was adamant to use premium fuel. Does anybody run...

    Engine stalls after fill-up

    I live in southern Arizona. It's hot. Very hot. When I happen to fill up on the way to work, and the bike sits in the sun all day, riding home the bike will stall when at idle. I've seen on here that is due to over-filling. It's **** near impossible to not "over-fill" these bikes. After...

    Replace 2 rear tires for every front?

    Got about 4.5k miles on my '21 GT. Looks like I'll probably get about 7 or 8k out of the rear tire. Do most folks just buy a new rear and let the front go till the next change?

    Steering Damper

    Anybody fitted a steering damper to a 2.5 rocket? A couple of weeks ago I was casually cruising through a rural area with cruse control on and only my left hand lightly on the grip. Went through a rough patch on the road in an intersection and got a very surprising steering wobble for a second...

    Clutch rattle in neutral

    I know this is somewhat of a common phenomenon on bikes, but I haven't seen it mentioned in the 2020+ forums so thought I'd ask. My bike didn't do this new, but now with ~4k miles on the clock, if I come to a stop in neutral with the clutch level released, I get some minor rattle noises from...

    Android Voice Commands (AWESOME!)

    I'd been struggling with using my Cardo headset commands combined with android "Hey Google" commands to control my phone. Things never quite worked right, it was a real struggle to get to and use my garage door app or music app, or even respond to a quick text from my wife. My gloves really...

    Tell Dealer Bike is Tuned?

    Flashed Penner's full power map this weekend. LOVING it! Got the quick shifter on order (which should be an amazing combination). When I take the bike into the dealer for install, any reason not to tell them it's been tuned? I don't want them to try and install any updates and overwrite the...
