    Pirelli Diablo Strada "E" code

    Both rear tires (E and non E) have the same load rating 73W. 365 kg. Pirelli says the E spec compound is harder. That's all. The E spec is not "more robust" it has a harder compound for improved milage, if that makes it feel stiffer, so be it. Word around the campfire (from people that have...

    2009 2 million mile push !

    Just RTB from an awesome ride to the four corners area. CO, AZ, UT, WY. Great roads (well except for the MI, IL parts) spectacular scenery. 6,258 KM (3,888 Mi. for the metric impaired). Bike was flawless.

    steering head sockets

    That's a nicely made tool and a bargain at that price. Just out of curiosity has anyone done the math to determine the difference in torque applied by this tool versus the factory spanner, since the lever arm is reduced?

    Problem with TourTech Stem Mount

    Is it a "Touratech" you have or a "Techmount" ? I have a Techmount stem nut that threaded on and torqued up just fine. Same bike as yours.

    Taller front tire/wheel

    Do you believe that thousands of engineers toiling away at motorcycle manufacturers, just throw darts at random numbers pinned to the wall to decide on wheel/ tire size combinations?

    Anyone else in Canada get a call re: Ign Switch

    Just got a call from the dealer that sold me my bike informing me of the ignition switch recall. I was a bit surprised that Canadian models are affected as it's my understanding that the switch used is a different part # than U.S. bikes. They claim it's a switch replacement only and uses the...

    Need a French translator please

    Can I pay by 27 Oct please because (misspelled, doesn't make sense) something is dry (maybe funds) I need to change the money and that takes time. I don't think French is this persons first language. Maybe this is a Nigerian to French translation. :lol:
