    AltRider Enforkulators

    1) ENFORKULATOR! Say it. 2) I like the look 3) I think they will do pretty good protecting my lines against raspberry canes and other foresty nonsense.

    AltRider Enforkulators

    Yeah, these have some kind of really-dense foam behind the mount-point. This prevents rattles and firms it up. If your aluminum cracked, is there a chance that the screws were over-tightened?

    AltRider Enforkulators

    So AltRider has asked me to preview a set of Fork Guards and to get a feel for the public opinion. I quite like my prototypes (below, that's my bike!). The production ones come in white and black (I think) and do not have the laser-cut "A" on top, just the sticker. (Sticker was my idea. I made a...

    OEM Panniers Lockset Back Fell In

    So.... one of the screws that hold the OEM locket in the OEM Panniers fell out. I figured I'd have until Monday to get some replacement screws. Well, I figured wrong; the other one quickly joined it. (lonely?) The back fell out and now I can't open the d*** thing to fix it. Any wisdom or...

    Best Communication System for Modular Helmets ?

    I have the Scala G9x. The speakers are terrible, so I swapped them out for earbuds. The pairing function works fine, if you remember the PRECISE order of the 137 steps it takes to get into the right mode (mood, maybe?). The vox instruction set is next to useless for me. The noise-cancelling...

    Yamaha OEM Heated Grip Removal Question for Super Tenere

    Yes, the cable will need to be disconnected and it IS (sort-of) glued on with stuff called "Yamabond". Yamabond is basically low-tensile-strength stickum that will break down with a mineral-based lubricant/solvent like WD-40. Squirt a LITTLE bit up the grip, wait a few minutes and you should be...

    Lighten Clutch Lever Pull

    As I've mentioned in my "Hello" and "Finally Got One" posts, I have questions. Please note that I attempted a Google search, but I am not sure my search terms were correct: "lighten motorcycle clutch", "Super Tenere stiff clutch", "Sexual deviancy waffles pancakes" So I've never had a bike...

    Hello From Seattle

    I've already done the smart thing and did several longer test rides on all the 2014-ish model adventure bikes (except the Stelvio, the only Motoguzzi I want is from the '50s or '60s) and decided that I wanted the ST. WetLeather email list? Nope, never heard of it!

    Hello From Seattle

    I've been lurking for a couple months and decided this forum was worth the potential spam! Looking to buy a 2014 ST next month, my second bike, after discovering that I just don't like the bike I bought earlier this year. Any advice? Anyway, thanks for having me!
