    Sound of metal grinding

    Fellow bikers, just wondering if anyone had the experience. Whenever I ride my bike pass 120km/h, I'll hear a grinding (metal to metal) noise when I relax the throttle. Just cannot figure where it's coming from, other than the clutch or maybe the brake rotors. Any advice would be greatly...

    Help! Signal light won't go off.

    Hey Guys, I was cleaning my bike halfway and suddenly my signal lights (both front and rear, left and right) came on. They don't even blink and just stay on. I wasn't even hosing the bike but just splashing it with a wet cloth and wiping it down. I tried disconnecting the battery for a while...

    Leaking fuel tank

    Had a leaking fuel tank and it came from the fuel pump unit. Decided to tighten a little before heading down the workshop to change the gasket but ended with a broken bolt. Long story short, Mechanic saw the condition of the tank and pump, recommended to change the whole fuel tank and pump...

    Wobbly wheels

    Had an opportunity to ride up north to a neighbouring country so I just had to test out the engine. Saw a long stretch of car free road and decided to push the beast to the limit. Everything felt awesome until the bike hit 180km/h and my wheels suddenly felt like they were floating. To make...

    I'm thinking of a T-bar

    Hey guys, I'm thinking of getting a T-bar. This was designed for the standard, do you think it will fit the touring too.

    Skidded while turning

    Not feeling great but decided that I need to get stuff done in the office so rode to work anyway. Lost concentration and didn't see a pickup truck coming. Jammed the brakes and the front wheel skidded. Thank God for the dresser bars! Bike was mostly unharmed (new paintwork... Thank God again!)...

    Stocking up OEM spares

    I know this sounds nuts but I'm thinking since I'm probably going to ride this bike for a long while more, why don't I consider stocking up spares rather than paying all the extra overheads at the dealer? So here's the question, what should I stock up on?

    '08 Touring looking new again

    Last few months has been nothing but exciting! Shipping parts from US, UK and China to personalise a used '08 Rocket Touring that I bought. Obviously there were challenges here and there but finally it's still done up to what I've hoped for. 1) Resprayed with hypershift paint, 2) lowered with...

    New paint wrecked

    Was so excited about this new bike but challenges just kept coming... Happily sent the bike to be Polish and treated with paint protection yesterday but suddenly got a call to be informed that my fuel tank was leaking. Rushed down and raised the fuel tank to see what has happened... Only to...

    An exciting first day riding

    Have been waiting a long time for this day and it finally came. Riding a preloved touring that has been parked aside for months if not years. I swear I wasn't really speeding but was forced to squeeze my brakes a little harder that normal due to traffic. The bike fish tailed. I thought that...

    Lost keys for sissy bar

    hi guys, I've just gotten myself a used rocket touring 2008 that came with a sissy bar. Unfortunately the previous owner lost the key to it. Just wondering if it's actually possible to remove it without unlocking? Any help would be appreciated!

    Greetings from Sunny Singapore
