    Pirelli Angel GT's

    I picked up another set of Angel GT's to install later this season. On my ST's I was able to get 8,500 miles on the rear and 11,000 on the front. The GT's appear to be increasing the life of the rear to over 10-11,000 easy as compared to the ST. I still have plenty (half) of tread and horns...

    Headlight Modulator

    I use Signal Dynamics Plug N Play Modulators on three of my bikes. Good price, easy installation and I've not noticed any shortening of bulb life. Although I've heard a lot of people say they dislike them, they see them, correct? Isn't that what it is all about - being seen? If I'm on a ride...

    Tires

    I'm curious as to what pressures riders have found work well in Angels for solo riding? I just burnt through my rear stone at 5900 miles and decided to try Angels based on the comments I've heard from other sport touring riders.

    v-strom hand guards

    A couple messages ago, I mentioned that I was trying to decide whether to try to find a longer screw for a bar end or to trim my right grip after installing a BrakeAway. Because I didn't want to stretch/distort the hand guard, I decided to trim 1cm off the end of the grip, which was the width...

    v-strom hand guards

    Question for those who have installed the V-Strom hand guards and the BrakeAway throttle lock. Did you trim the grip or use the spacer and stretch the hand guard out a little further on the throttle side? It looks like I will either need to get a longer screw for the bar end or trim the grip.

    What is the best way to transport my FJR from LA to Chicago?

    A couple years ago I bought a bike out of California and had it shipped to Michigan for around $475 through shippingmasters.com. They appear to be a third party and actually placed the shipment with haulbikes.com as the shipper. I was very impressed with haulbikes. It came on a special 18...
