Lol, you're talking to me like I just joined this forum. I have read your posts for years and know you are well rounded when it comes to all things motorcycle. I was just surprised at your comment about the Triumph, because you obviously haven't ridden one. And, just for the record, I took my...

Where in the world did you come up with that idea? That's one of the Scrambler's stronger advantages.

But for a couple of tools you may not have, changing out the clutch is no big deal, but you are going to be in a world of shit if you try to change that CCT with an other OEM one if you don't know what you're doing. My advise would be to go with a manual CCT if this is your first time in an...

He is talking about the Scrambler 1200, NOT the Explorer. Completely different animal, and very well liked by all who have ridden it. Ask Checkswrecks about the differences.

Can't imagine those being dangerous at all. LOL

Another f%&*^up pronunciation is "Greenwich"

I kinda feel ya on that one. I always associate "Italian" with performance. Not happening with a Moto Guzzi, Not anymore anyway. They had their day though, just like Harley. JMHO

Any quieter and ALL you'll hear is the engine rattling. LOL

I'm gunna guess that a 12 year old post from a guy that hasn't been on this forum since 2020 is not going to answer your question.

I think you meant the inner race. The outer race goes in the frame ;)

It is a skillset thing. ;)

Take your battery out and charge it separately. If it stays dead too long you will need a new battery. That's not to say that maybe, in what would be an eerie coincidence, your battery got an internal short the evening you did all that work, and took a shit by itself.

Those are "BMW lifetime" chains. :p

I'm with Longdog Cymru. I have a friend that recently bought the GTplus and we went for a 300 mile ride. I rode it half of that. IF you are more of a sport rider than just a putzer, there is no comparison. the GTplus is razor sharp compared to the Tenere. The one I rode was almost Goldwing...

I have the same problem as Tenman. It's a crap shoot how long it's going to take to unlock my steering, so I only use it if I absolutely have to. @mituk Yes, I would take the BIKE to a locksmith and see what they tell you.

Well, it sounds like it's the key cylinder that's at fault, not the switch per se. You can buy a switch if you want, but it "might" be an easy fix for a locksmith.

It's hard to believe that a key that is cut identically on both sides will only work one way, and the others virtually won't work at all in the ignition but will work everywhere else, so I'm with Sierra 1 on this. Before I bought a new ignition switch though, I would take the bike to a...

That "mesh" as you call it, is the spark arrestor , and should NOT be removed. At least if you ever plan to ride it off road, that is. Why don't you just get a long 1/2" drill bit and drill some holes in the muffler plates inside the muffler itself. Then you can put all that other stuff back on...

I think you meant to say "can't" , not can. Don't worry man, I got your back, LOL.

I think you meant to say "disk" every time you said caliper.
