The STP S6607 filters can be had from Auto Zone stores.

Thanks, I learned something electrical today about switches.

When my bike is cold, say during the first 5 minutes of operation, there is a definite "whirl" or flutter sound when you blip the throttle with the clutch pulled in. I cant say I hear the sound under power (clutch engaged). Regardless, it disappears once warm. Cant say I noticed such on my...

For the record, Traxxion uses 355 mm x 38 mm springs and there is a 95 mm preload spacer in their AK20 setup. Now, does that help you guys running stock internals....beats me.

If you want switchable ABS, I cannot help you. If you simply want to disable ABS and leave it OFF, the easiest way is to remove the 30 AMP fuse at the solenoid under the right side cover. Your ABS will be OFF, the ABS light will come ON, you wont have ABS and there will be no other issues to...

LAST YEAR around October thru November Race Tech completed their "work" on the Super Tenere...or so they said. I was told everything was selected, but the "package" wasnt ready and it should be ready in short oder. I pestered them all early this year for something for the forks....and always...

Here is what I have........... Front Forks Traxxion AK20 Cartridge installed 1.0 kg/mm spring Maxima 7 wt oil @ 120 mm 95 mm preload spacer (Traxxion supplied) which equates to about 12 mm preload on springs when first installed and 5 lines showing on preload collars on the...

For you guys running the Mobil filters, save a couple of bucks and buy the STP or if you can ever find them again, the Super Tech. They are the same the best I can tell. All made by Champion.

I just finished the transaction on my replacement S10 which gets picked up tomorrow. I have been told by the dealer (a decent friend of mine) to make an offer to the forum if you a TRULY serious about a new S10. The price is CHEAP CHEAP CHEAP and includes prep, setup, and the dealers paperwork...

A nice V-plow would work. How much for a carbon fiber model less than 5 lbs in weight? Thanks for the wishes guys. And yes, the deer on the east coast are out of control this year because last winter was so mild. Even the park rangers on the Parkway are saying such.

Been away from the forum, but now back. The story goes like this.....in mid May, I collided with a deer on the Blue Ridge Parkway (the second deer hit for me on the Parkway for me in 3 years and my fourth deer incident on a bike in 10 years and the first time I have ever crashed as a result)...

Well, I got tired of waiting for all the suspension tuners to come to market with kits for the front forks and so I went ahead with a Traxxion AK20 cartridge kit for the bike. I figured since I go through so many bikes, I might as well spend the money for the AK20 cartridge kit which I could...

1. If you lead and dont follow, you dont need fork guards. 2. If you are following rule no. 1, the guards are bling, poser stuff, just like the whale foreskin lined riding jackets BMW owners obsess over. I guess you have never seen the skit? Click here...

Am wondering if we have some closet BMW owners here. Go ahead confess. Just make sure you are wearing your whale foreskin lined riding jacket when you come out of the closet.

Why you guys need forks guards I dont know. The solution is to LEAD NOT FOLLOW. But I guess some are just destinted to be followers....... ::025::
