    KTM Super Duke mirrors

    I decided to add some KTM Super Duke mirrors to my XT12. I had them on my KTM and my Strom. I think they fit the lines of the bike really well and they sit a little wider out too. The KTM mirrors require the KTM mount adapters and a Yamaha thread mount adapter that I found from Mikessx.net...

    MRA VarioTouring Screen with WaspWorks adjustable screen mount

    I was very impressed with the WaspWorks adjustable screen mount and knew that I would be as I was a user of the Madstad on my Strom and knew this would be a must for the XT12 as well. The mount works great with the stock screen and may be all that you need. It is a clean look and allows for a...

    Throttle Body Sync with Harmonizer sync tool

    I decided to order the Harmonizer Sync Tool to replace my trusty homemade manometer that I have used for years. I had just done a sync using my manometer a few days ago so this was a nice test to see the accuracy of that unit compared to the Harmonizer. I will assume that you know the process...

    Sync tools - Harmonizer, Twinmax, MP, Manometer? What do you guys use?

    I have my trusty home-made manometer that I have had for years from my Strom that I used over the weekend for the new XT. Got me to thinking I should upgrade to something better. The Harmonizer is at the top of my list right now. Seems easy to use, accurate and somewhat more durable than some...

    Adjustment marks for WaspWorks screen mount

    I added adjustment marks to three surfaces on each side of my WaspWorks screen mount to make getting it even on both sides much easier. Just scribe a small mark in .25" increments on the three surfaces in the pics below. Make sure you mark them accurately from the same starting points. Once...

    I switched the stock horn with a Fiamm freeway blaster horn, model 72102. Bolted right on but had to loose the rubber mount due to a shorter mount stud on the new horn. It was $19 at Pepboys. From this. To this. Here is the horn package.

    A tough day for me!

    Today was a day I have been dreading for 6 years almost to the day. My dad was diagnosed with Melanoma skin cancer six years ago. They had given him about six months to live back then based on its progression at the time. He defied those odds and beat it for six long and happy years until...

    Popping on decel with aftermarket exhaust - High temp silicon sealant fixed it

    I had mentioned that I was having some decel popping just off idle with my Arrow slip-on and have found that the connection from the header to the slipon was my culprit. Some slip-ons will use the oem spacer seal at the joint. The Arrow is sized so that it fits fairly snug straight onto the...
