I"m kinda late coming into this subject , I got email,2,asking if interested to upgrade to the 550. But I never cared for the TT Rider guess it was me and it giving me fits whenever I did try using. Now that they, TT, are telling me they won't be supporting it with map updates due to hardware...

Thanks for the input.I rode today to get the bike registered and inspected did some errands but temps were getting warm, bumping a 100. Hadn't been on the forum for a while and got some good info here. I ordered a cooling vest with a collar as my Joe Rocket lacks much for neck protection for...

All the input on this subject is great! Just saying because I have same issue and this gives me some assistance. Thanks

Good luck with the MOTOBATT ,I too purchased one from Amaazon and installed. The battery started giving me issues with slow cranking. I contacted them since it was under warranty. I did all the tests requested and submitted the results, they denied my claim. The battery was leaking from the...

There was buy deal for a Spot3 and I thought this would serve my purpose due to camping in an area with no cell coverage. Looking into and comparing to the DeLorme inReach SE I believe the later would be a better deal for me more usable text messaging and costs slightly higher but out weigh...

RossKean My first check also was late and also the intakes were close or at minimum .One claim to my situation was carbon build up but had used back to back 3 tanks prior using RXP. They also insinuated that had might have NG feeler gages ? I am way behind 110k miles at 42k for an 06' Question...

By disconnecting the battery positive, put the meter on ohms, at the light fuse connect the meter, one lead of the meter.Disconnect the connector to the ecu, I use a oxy actyelene tip cleaner and insert the size to fit it into the wire connector to the ecu.Connect your other lead to the tip...

I just got done fixing a no headlight on a 06'. Luckly it happened at the end of shift daylight, only warned me 2x before failure both in same day! Do you have a wiring diagram for your bike? I don't know if my service manual would help in telling you your wiring? Anyways I traced my system...

I noticed some talk back a while about JCMotors having Ohlins for $990.I went to the site with the link and the S46 HR1C1S shock. Then they said they are factory equipped with 175# rider type springs. They mention to ask you what rider weight at time of order. My question, do these just get...

I put those on a couple years ago and don't regret it. I used a UNI-BIT, stepped drill for differing hole diameters, to drill out the ends. Came out pretty good. The bit drilled them to the correct size. I don't remember which tool as the come in different sizes. They are expensive but work...

I did a google search for forum reference prior to and found what you wrote. Now how I got to the place I mentioned is a wild guess at this point. I did go to your site and guess I did okay $$ as they got beat by $46.43 and the tires had been tagged as PARTS UNLIMITED stock. Unless my credit...

I ordered some Michelin Pilot Road3 August 8 from SWMOTORUBBER and finally got them the 15th after picking them up myself from FEDEX . Looks like E MOTO Tire aka SWMOTORUBBER aka Iron Horse Motorcycles in Tuscon AZ website is down with no access to your account. Anyone got some idea what...

I just changed my pads all around and have got 1500 miles of my normal transits on them. I had 34k miles on the original pads and the new are EBC HH and seem to be about the same braking as the originals. I had noise from the originals but nothing much, the EBC pads are quiet and no dusting so...

I have had a Joe Rocket Phoenix silver for the last 6 years and have almost wore it out in the stitching. I am in need of replacing it in case of a get off. :huh: I like the jacket due to the pockets, armor,and water proof zip out liner. I had to replace the elbow/shoulder pads as they broke...

I thought I should follow up my reply and to everyone else that follows this valve check especially Fred W. Prior to doing the valve check I ran a local(?) additive RXP to be sure carbon wouldn't be a factor ? I ran one bottle that is suppose to be good for 20-25 gallons of fuel. I ran...
