The import/export process is totally painless. My dealer waived freight and PDI. No state tax in WA, just a small document fee and temporary permit fee. I was watching the exchange rate last year prior to paying for the bike and ended up saving almost $500 when I cut the cheque. One issue is...

Re: Re: I love this bike! Roger that.

I believe the VIN indicates the total number of units produced for that model year. Mike

Had to stop on the way home from work last week and capture this special moment. Most of the millage has been accumulated since the middle of March, through almost every kind of weather and road condition you can imagine. What makes the 10k mark special to me is that the bike came through it all...

Just like Tenerator12 says: The connectors are buried under a plastic cover over the ABS unit. You can take the seats and rear carrier off and just follow the wires. The US schematic shows quite clearly the left (item reference 89, GRAY connector) and right (item reference 88, BLACK connector)...

Thanks for getting back to me, Justin. Looks like I'll be doing some more tweaking myself. Mike

Thanks guys. Are either of you noticing and stumble at idle or when putting along in first or second gear? Mike

So ... here I am quoting myself after a few days riding and testing the adjustments I made above. First of all, I feel the CO adjustment (I know this comment doesn't belong here) has made a subtle improvement in the overall smoothness of the bike. ::008:: However, I'm still not happy with the...

No harm in a little debate. Tip: Never judge a book by its cover, from Amazon or anywhere else. Take everything you read with a grain of salt and let experience and careful experimentation be your guide. Personally, I am liking what's been said in this thread so far concerning gravel riding...

Thanks guys. ::008:: We'll make other plans. Mike

Right on! Thanks, oregon-rider! ::008::

Hey, A bunch of us are putting a ride together May 5th to 12th from the Pacific North West (Vancouver, BC area) and were wondering if we're wasting our time thinking we can get up and over Rainier during that week (Hwy 706 west to east). The road reports say they are clearing snow, but what are...

Did you say "hard winter months"? :)) You live in Florida, right? ::025:: Oh man ... I wish I had to endure your weather. ::015:: Thanks again, Mike

That's great information, thanks. ::008:: I bought an adjuster thinking all I needed was a little more height, but found I couldn't find the sweet spot anywhere in the adjustment range. I believe you may be right about the stock screen being designed improperly. I swear the turbulent vibration...

Thanks, Tim. ::008:: I'll have a look see. Mike

I did a TBS last year using a home made manometer and initially saw an improvement, but have noticed lately more stumble and hunting rpm. Over winter I bought a Harmonizer and just hooked it up for the first time today. The device showed a +10 to +12 mbar imbalance, and the rpm jumping all over...

I know a guy that got tired of his wife dicking around with the thermostat in their home, so he disconnected it and wired up another one she didn't know about. She never new the difference and his heating bill went down. :))

Re: I got the new single disc 21" front set up and installed today. Thanks, Woody. Love watching these mods come together. Awesome job! ::026:: Mike

Re: I got the new single disc 21" front set up and installed today. Greg, Why do you feel the cylinder may need changing? Is it because you feel it will apply too much hydraulic pressure to the lighter rolling mass and be overly sensitive to input? Mike
