    SOLD! - Sargent World Sport Performance Seat for sale

    Re: Sargent World Sport Performance Seat for sale It is the stock seat from Sargent so it wasn't specifically made for me. I am 6' tall with a 32" inseam and about 260lbs. The shape of the seat is good, but I think I am just too heavy for it. The foam in the Sargent seat is very firm, however...

    SOLD! - Sargent World Sport Performance Seat for sale

    Re: Sargent World Sport Performance Seat for sale The slope of the seat seems to be better then the original. If you have modified bumpers from your factory seat you can transfer those over. Kyle

    SOLD! - Sargent World Sport Performance Seat for sale

    The seat is in like new condition. I used it for one 1500 mile trip and decided it wasn't for me. Price is $300 and will ship for free in the US. Bonus: You get the free Sargent hat that came with it as well. It doesn't fit me either. Any questions feel free to ask me. Thanks for looking.

    Whay are Garmin Nuvo models so expensive?

    Why would you need cell service? All iPhones since the 4 have a GPS chip in them. When you install the Tom Tom GPS app you also download the maps ahead of time. You have the maps installed so no need for a cell signal to constantly update your location. I rode all through WV and didn't have a...

    Whay are Garmin Nuvo models so expensive?

    I just couldn't justify paying that much money for a GPS either. I opted for buying the Tom Tom app for my iPhone for $24 and got a $50 weather proof case and I have the perfect GPS unit that also plays my MP3's and can make phone calls.

    Clutch Basket Remove/Upgrade/Installation

    I am glad someone mentioned that the clutch is grabbing faster as well. I just did my clutch basket upgrade yesterday and also had to bleed the clutch. I also noticed that the clutch engages much quicker than before. I thought that there may be something wrong as it felt much different than...

    Which gps ??

    If you have a smart phone check out the latest version of the TomTom GPS app. I recently installed it on my iPhone 5c for only 24 bucks and it has worked great. It has all the same features as the TomTom Rider GPS at a fraction of the price. Only $24 for the app and I also picked up a Griffen...

    Rox Risers / Pro-offset block riser or 2" adjustable riser

    I installed the Pro-Offset block riser and still had to relocate the brake line and adjust the bend of the brake line guide and the throttle cable guide. I cannot imagine trying to get the 2" riser in there. I can say that the block riser worked great and puts me in a more relaxed riding position.

    What is the basic problem with pre-2014 Windscreen shape?

    I had the same issue with the stock wind screen. I added the PUIG clip-on windscreen visor ($115) from Revzilla and it made a huge difference for me.

    Torque Wrench??

    Harbor Freight. 3/8 drive for low torque numbers like 5 ft/lb and 1/2 drive for larger numbers like 100+ ft/lbs. They are cheap and appear to be pretty accurate when checked with my more expensive wrench.
