    Shoei RF1300 ?

    Doing a little online helmet shopping lately and I noticed some really deep discounts on RF1200 helmets. Selling from $330 to $350. Is this a sign that they are about to be replaced by a newer model? Or is it a sign that the RF1200 is just not that popular? I'm currently using an RF1100 that...

    Tenere 700 World Raid

    If they bring this bike to the US market, any takers? https://world-raid.com/ Looks like an upgrade from my KLR

    Easy USB install

    If you already have a quick disconnect pigtail to hook up a battery tender, this is definitely the lazy man's way to add a USB outlet. I bought one this summer and it works great for a GPS device or a phone. Only $10. Just thought I'd pass this along...

    FJ-09 replaced by Tracer 900 ?

    Looking at the Yamaha website. No 2018 FJ-09 but shows a 2019 Tracer 900 and Tracer 900 GT. Looks like same engine with new frame, bodywork and instrumentation. Maybe a good year to get a deal on a FJ-09.

    Rear Master Cylinder Kit Question

    According to the repair manual for my '08, the only repair option for the rear brake master cylinder is replacement. When I look up the parts online I see there is a cylinder kit listed for $37. Part #8 on this drawing: https://www.rockymountainatvmc.com/oem-schematic/12 Has anyone here...

    Galaxy Blue V46 with mount-(not my ad)

    Just ran across this while checking C-list. Thought someone here might find it interesting. I have no connection with or knowledge of the seller. https://stgeorge.craigslist.org/mpo/5612786925.html

    Rare 2013 Blue in Phoenix Area

    I don't really understand this ad. Maybe one of you 'zoners can explain it to me. Best guess is wife demanded the bike be sold. He says "I'm trying. I've got it on C-List. I don't know why I'm getting no responses." https://phoenix.craigslist.org/wvl/mcy/5314931775.html Heated Hand grips...

    The Opposite of Hi Viz

    New color for 2016 KLR. If you are riding one of these, doesn't it increase the odds of having an accident because someone doesn't see you. It can't look good on the accident report when the color of your bike is listed as gray camo. Blends in nicely with all the concrete.

    Top Shock Mount, OCD?

    I was finally replacing my OE shock on my Gen II today. My fresh new Hagon arrived yesterday afternoon. Everything was going smoothly. I removed the old shock and cleaned up the mounting bolts. Just to make sure everything was going to fit, I slid he bolts through the holes on the new shock...

    Reasonable Explanation?

    I saw this report on the news and it made me wonder. The report is pretty short without very many details. I wonder how they determined the cause of the accident. No mention of any witnesses. Must have been one heck of a speed differential between the motorcycle and the passing vehicle...

    Bought Green on St. Patrick's Day

    Celebrated by buying a new KLR. Earlier this year I was thinking about replacing the FJR with a Super Tenere. Finally I decided to keep the FJR and add a KLR. This addresses my concerns that the Super-T wouldn't be as good at touring as the FJR and my concern about the weight of the Super-T if...

    I've seen strange vehicles before

    but this is one of the stranger ones. I guess it might make sense in Tokyo. https://motorsportsnewswire.wordpress.com/2015/02/26/park24-and-toyota-to-trial-i-road-sharing-service-in-central-tokyo-0226159/ So would it be considered a car or a motorcycle?

    Best CList ad of the week

    I'm not linking to the add because the pics don't really add anything. This is an actual Craig's List ad I ran across this morning. Don't peak ahead to the last line. It spoils the surprise. This guy must be a wannabe novelist; This motorcycle is the pin you by your neck to the wall and...

    2008 ECU swap question

    I am probably not the greatest forum searcher but I have come up empty on this question. Is there anyone out there with a 2008 model that has replaced their ecu with one from a later model? The part # for the 2008 unit was one year only. I have talked to other 2008 owners who have told me...
