    Top box

    My '03 came with a colour matched 50l top case (silver). When I traded the bike in for a '13 I kept the top case and had the lid painted mat black. I'll keep it when it comes time to upgrade to a newer model as everything goes with black. I love this bike!

    Rear crash bars

    Late to this thread but I have a set of Canyon Cages (front and read) guards. I had bought then for my ‘03 then moved them over to my ‘13 without issue.

    Good Zumo 550 Deal

    The best price I have seen in Canada is here: GPS City. As of two weeks ago they were not aware of the replacement model.

    Code 31

    Thanks for the help everyone... DailyCommuter - you've got that right. After my local service depot writes up the work order it will take them three days before they can get to it - only to charge me $90 / hour. And each day they roll it out and rool it back in they bang my bike off the...

    Code 31

    Some friends and I departed on Sat., May 31st on a four day trip from the Toronto area through New York, Vermont, New Hampshire, Maine and back. From the moment we left until we made our first (breakfast) stop, 164 kilometers (102 miles) later, the rain poured down on us pretty hard. About...

    Rain gear recommendations

    I used my FroggToggs "RoadToad" for the 1st time and did not get wet...and we rode through rain for almost ten hours! Whatever you decide on, try it on over your riding gear as the padding will add more bulk. They are a good wind breaker too.

    Garage Door Opener

    I keep mine in the left pocket of my riding jacket. When I am about a half block away I press the button with the hope that I'll be able to ride right into my parking spot. Then I realize that there isn't enough space between the two cars in the driveway, and the garage floor is littered with...

    I want a throttle lock... which one is best?

    When I bought my 2nd hand '03 it came with the Throttlemeister throttle lock. I tried it many times but just didn't feel comfortable using it - how the hell is your hand supposed to move in one direction while maintaining throttle at the same time? I read about a guy that would use his left...

    Depends on the point of view...the owner of the bike or the croc?

    Grip warmers

    I used a pair of Oxford "overwrap" grip warmers on a previous bike. They worked well until the rain came...then the grip warmer on the throttle side began to slide over the stock grip. No matter how tight I wrapped it the throttle side would still slide in the rain. In my opinion if you are...

    Has anyone replaced the rider foot pegs?

    Thanks everyone for the info. I like the idea of powdercoating the shine out of the Kuryakyns! I think this is the route I'll go.

    Has anyone replaced the rider foot pegs?

    OCfjr, I have been using a pair of Vendramini boots for the last 10+ years but have got a pair of Sidi B2 Gore boots on order.

    Has anyone replaced the rider foot pegs?

    Rather than floor boards I was thinking of pegs like these: Kuryakyn #7963

    Has anyone replaced the rider foot pegs?

    Has anyone ever replaced the rider foot pegs with something more robust? I find that after riding for several hours the bottoms of my feet begin to get sore. I was looking at a few products offered by Kuryakin but wanted to get some feedback before I made the switch. I've never ridden a bike...
