If you have a socket and a torque wrench, 12 lb-ft is the correct torque. Otherwise, 3/4 of a turn after the filter starts to seat will get you close. I already have the torque wrench out during oil changes to do the drain plug, so why not use it?

Had an '03 ST1300 ABS that I bought in '06. Had it for 7 years and 101k mi. Was ready to buy a new bike. Wanted several improvements: 1. Lighter weight 2. Less heat from the engine while riding. 3. Cruise control 4. Better suspension, esp in the front. Stock springs are too weak, damping too...

Got you covered. Put you down as a roommate then? Norm

Would be glad to room with you, Allen. Haven't seen you for quite a while and it will be fun to catch up! Are you arriving Thursday? Since you'd be coming from Indy, you could meet me in Dayton and ride a fun backroads route over to Marietta with me. Please confirm and I will cancel my own...

Attending from Dayton, OH. Have a room booked from Thursday May 3 with checkout on Sun May 6. Looking for roommate to share. Norm Kern [email protected]

Moved the Russell seat and other farkles to the new bike! Norm Kern

Went to a lot of MSTA rallies, out west twice, averaged about 70 days per year on the road. Been riding over 50 years on 15 different road bikes. Never had one that could cover miles in comfort and run with no problems like this one. Only reason for selling: Have a new 2016 ES sitting in the...

Tried it and found the interface to be a little difficult to get it to connect. AFAIK, it doesn't try to go back and forth between cel data and BT. There are lots of places outside of cities and interstates where there's no signal and it doesn't work. IMHO, as long as you're within sight of each...

The view that is sorted by model appears to be incorrect, at least for the medal column. Not all the FJRs won gold, for example. Norm Kern

Jeff Dolence and I are ON for this event. Arriving on Thursday May 4. See all of you there! Norm Kern

+1 on the canyon cages/sliders etc not preventing a rollover that breaks the mirror subframe. I've got that problem from a tipover a few weeks ago. I broke the other side about a year ago when a cager knocked my '14 GenIII over. You can't win. Cager's insurance paid last year and a shop did the...

Had a good time, met a lot of great people. Friday weather was perfect. Special thanks to Prestone for being my eyes and ears back in the pack via intercom. We had a large group of 8 riders on our ride Friday, only two were people I'd ridden with before. No slow riders, and the only hot dogs...

No. No ST's here so far.
