Perhaps something has eaten some wiring? 

Define decent phone mount. 

Cool!

It seems like your bikes rev to only 4k...maybe it is you? 😇

I love my TechSpec tank grips on nearly every bike. They're easy on gear and grippy when you need it. 

Mom's are the worst...obviously. 🙂

Chromed? You may as well put the lights on it...

Real men don't do this to their defenseless motorcycles...or cars...or kids...or wives

"Where the rubber meets the road. Part Duex."

We have a community center? 🙂

Maybe worth mentioning that shocks are measured from center to center of eyelet/mounting bolt holes. 

I have the same question. I'm a longtime Suzuki hater, but people seem to love those. 

Love the look of them both...and the rest of your fleet. 

That giant case needs to hang off a bit!

Describe "how" you're riding it, please. 

It is worth noting that the sizes on the sidewalls aren't accurate, but more of a swag. One would need to visit the MFG site get true measurements. 

Trigger blanks? I just got back from the range. 🙂

Love the white. Curious styling. What's the rear seat cover from? 

That a bummer!

We'll need some TRX riding video with audio...please. 

I just want the seat flat...like all seats should be. They haven't modified anything, because while I'd be in at $80, I'm out at nearly $400. 

What a "ride" this has been with the yellow bike. 

Still no explanation for the difficulty in fitting the shock. In the future, I may shorten the shock or raise the front a bit. 

It turns out that the refit cans updated clocking is correct and the original one was wrong. Must have been built on a Friday afternoon. 

Finally got out to test and adjust it on two rides. It is surely in the ballpark and a far cry better than stock. Still, once past a few clicks out, the damping adjusters do not click anymore, but still turn and make a difference. Strange. 

The shock has factory settings, but mine was never set to those. I rode it as it came for damping settings and it was terrible. I set them to factory, and still not great, but better. Finally set at 33mm cold rider sag, Low comp 16 of 24 out, High comp 10 of 20 out. Rebound 13/24 out. Road condition here is approaching what it is like in PA or WV, and normal damping setting are jarring most of the time. 

I'm married to it now, and the reseller was helpful, but would I recommend it over a Penske? Not really. While it seems to perform fine (and others will like the red look...but I don't), the savings wasn't worth the hassle. And the ambiguity in the adjusters can get in yoru head like not knowing tire pressure at a track day. 

Ditto on the fork kit I had installed on the '00, not recommended either. The '98 that Thermosman did is miles better. 

Lastly, I called Sargent to remove the dish from the '00 sargent seat, to match the flat one they did for the '98 for $79. They quoted me $385. Do you think that the guy just didn't understand? That seems crazy high for a tiny mod they've done before and have notes for. 

That's a sad blinker. Heal quickly!

If you're going to have a tire size rabbit hole for us, use actual sizes, which rarely have anything to do with the size on the sidewall. 

Better. Thanks!

did not like the look of the voltage going from 13.2 to 13.0 

What does this mean?
