    Motorcycle travel, just do it

    A nice factory feature of the st1300, 60a denso car alternator between the V. Pain to get to though if it needs to come out. Ill have to keep my eyes open for a small trailer like that.

    Motorcycle travel, just do it

    Hows it tow that trailer, thinking of a small guy for my st1300. And the splines are a bit worn as someone in between the orignal owner and me wasnt using it but using grease. But plenty of meat left on them. So hopfully this stops the wear or slows it to a crawl. Not like i cant buy the...

    Motorcycle travel, just do it

    We (wife with her bmw f800gs) just got back from a month long m/c trip to california. 8000kms total. Montana, highway 37 along lake koocanusa is beautiful, the cascades highway through idaho and washington is also awesome especially washington pass and fairly quiet. Camped all over...

    Oil Pump Drive

    Id say pretty critical for flatness. You dont want to cockeye the pump and gear. That last pic looks pretty cock eyed. You might be looking for a new side cover. The gouge was probably fine to clean up, fill with epoxy nice and flat and be done with it.

    2 into 1 Intake crossover

    I have never had any 2 into 1 setup work on my 74 when i had it. Shitty idle and gas pooling. Single vm34. Pulled hard and everything above idle was great. Unequal lengths dont work. Tried joe wiseguy and another manifold. The longer runner never really got hot either. Poor...

    He may mean the bike that has the intruder 800 motor v twin in it. Kinda looks like that. Europe only got it i think though

    Beautiful motorcycles

    I always remember how feeble the xs feels much past 60mph and then throw that idea out. The efi air cooled new triumph bonneville may fit your needs better. I can say my scrambler hauls pretty good ass.

    Beautiful motorcycles

    Yeah even my st1300 is less than that...and i am super careful about where i park. I have a sena smh10 so i can talk with my wife and listen to tunes. She rides a bmw. Blue tooth is great. Yup. We dont take interstate too often....but 85mph is nothing for it or me. No ear plugs needed...
