    Kbc Helmets

    I was recently looking for a new helmet and contacted the Helmet Harbor for advise. They said stay away from KBC right now. Too many QC issues needing attention yet. They also said that's why most of their models are on backorder right now. Do what you will, but I passed. BTW, I did get to...

    Hey Guys, Need A Little Help Here....

    I came off an FZ1 myself. I LOVED the FZ1, but I needed something that punched a larger hole thru the air, and was a little bigger for me and the ms. when we tour. The FJR is just that. I LOVE the FJR. If I could have both, I would. The FJR is very capable sport touring bike. The FZ is...

    Anyone With Agv Titech?

    I considered the TiTech, but opted for the Shoei X-11 instead. I emailed back and forth with the Helmet Harbor about the different helmet for nearly a week. I was wanting great venting and a great helmet. Their opinion is the X-11, hands down! I've ridden with it once. It's nearly a 100...

    Experienced With Sheepskin?

    I used a custome sheepskin last year on vacation. Took the bloody thing off about 1/2 way. The butt burn and sweating wasn't any more noticeable without the skin that it was with it. Good luck. Mike

    Calling All Fjr Gurus, Fjr Won't Start

    If it coughs when cranking, try just cracking the throttle about 1/2 way or a little less. When mine did this, I finally got a TPS stuck code, which cleared itself when the bike fired and ran. Good luck. I know, it's very frustrating. Mike

    Recommended Tire Pressure

    A couple weeks ago I did a quick blast down to AR for a couple days. I had JUST put on the new Avons the night before. Scrubbed on the way down. Again, 42/42 with a fully loaded Givi E52 and tank bag. NEVER a wiggle, wobble, nothing. In fact, before I headed home, I had drug the pegs on...

    Do You Use A Tank Bag When Riding Locally?

    A tank bag for me is like AMX, I don't leave home without it! I've got the Tourmaster expandable set. Very happy with the setup. BTW, nice job sickdog! Mike

    Russell Day Long Vs Corbin

    Twowheel, I'd love to do a ride in for my Russell seat, but unfortunately KS to CA is quite a hop! Although it would definitely be broken in by the time I got home! Canes, I have the same problem as you, that's why I'm finally springing for the Russell. Good luck. Mike
