    wheel balance weights

    I always take them off cos they cause corrosion, never made any noticeable difference, my new bike didn't have any on front or back when it was delivered.

    Tilting stock bars forward?

    No problem with tank clearance with these bars and stock risers.

    Tilting stock bars forward?

    What do you mean by "spacers"? you may need to reroute the clutch and throttle cables to between the headlamps cos they are too long, if you want to use the stock bar ends you will need to weld in some threaded plugs in the end of the bars or just use aftermarket ones, get the ones without...

    Tilting stock bars forward?

    Hi, I have tried several types of bars from 2" rise to the classic pullbacks and the ones that are comfy and work without too much modification are called "XLX style" from Highway Hawk, or part number 110023 from Custom Chrome, both are a bit narrower, lower and further forward than stock. Go...

    Fat Bars

    I am looking into fitting a set of 1.25" fat bars with 1" clamp and end section, two questions...what is the width of the 1" clamp section on a Harley fitment, we need 5.5" on the Rocket, and does the brake master cylinder clear the 1.25" bars? I don't want T Bars I want low bars that use the...

    Quieten the exhaust?

    I think you can get these in the US as they are made to fit Harleys, just Google the part number, you need to drill out one of the pop rivets on each pipe and drill all the way through the baffle end piece, then fit tubes with a bolt about 2" long from the outside, I have no way of measuring...

    Hagon Question

    If you deal with Cheltenham Triumph I guess you are local to me so I could save you the £50 in my workshop, Just realised you have a Roadster which has a taller seat so you can also try fitting my standard seat while you are here.

    Hagon Question

    To update on my new Hagon Nitros, I too needed to be nearer to the ground and these 11.5" units are a good choice, standard springs are good for my weight 12 stone but if you ride 2 up and loaded I think they would be too soft. Drop the front forks as far as they will go to level it out, about 10mm.

    Pics of my Givi E41 hard bags

    I have Easybrackets with Givi E21 cases and often thought it needs a third support at the bottom to stop them wobbling about, how have you done it and are they still easily removable without tools?

    Paolo Tarozzi rearsets

    All you need for the Tarozzis to fit is a 10mm hole with enough room to fit an M10 nut behind it, the small linkage lever adjusts 180 deg.

    Paolo Tarozzi rearsets

    Also I believe you guys have ground clearance problems with the TTS kit, these never get near to scraping.

    Paolo Tarozzi rearsets

    Having had the Raask rearsets fitted for a couple of years I like the position and ground clearance they give me but I have never been happy with the quality of the pegs and levers, so I have just fitted these Italian puppies to the Raask brackets and linkages, they bolted straight on and come...

    Front fork stanchion repair

    I think it was Step1 who did this, he will confirm but I think they screw off.

    2010 Model Foot Peg location

    Don't see why not, the footpeg rails bolt to the engine and that hasn't changed, the Raask rearsets would probably be cheaper though but they are a bit further back and higher, fine for us shorties but no good if you are 6 foot.

    Hagon Question

    Dont think it would drop down without being pushed Mike, being new its pretty tight on the rod, I am sure when I get the replacements back without the spacer I will be happy with them.
