All 22- Wisconsin Riders? 3 hours ago, klrtovfr Theres a couple of us here in the madison area if you are ever looking for company. Good to know... I'll hit ya'll up in a week or two. Found a decent route for around here following 78 south to…

- Aftermarket Pipes For Gen 8 Ordered the Ixil exhaust, received it in 2 days from Indiana. I'm still up in the air on my decision though... The small pipes have a different tone than what I'm used to, more raspy than a growl. I took the db killers…
- New Wisconsin Member Hey there Kedge, nice to see some Wisconsin folks on here! I'm up for a ride most anytime...
- Proper Center Stand Technique? If i'm feeling lazy I'll give the bike a bit of a running start, i.e. 6-12", once you've got the momentum going, step on the center stand and let inertia do the work. It's quite a bit easier with the weight of the bike…
- Anyone Going To Motoamerica At Road America? I might be up for a Saturday or Sunday ticket. Depends on my schedule. Probably won't camp there though. I'd know more after the 15th of May when my schedule for June comes out.
- Crossing Australia - Twice! Wow, that's quite a load! I bet you end up using a fraction of it all and wishing you may have packed less, at least that's what ends up happening to me. How is it hiking your leg up and over that? Enjoy your journey.…
- Wisconsin Riders? MaxSwell perseverantist Dutchy I bet that hot shower/bath felt like paradise no? :-) One to remember for sure! Yep! First thing I did when I got home. Woke up to snow here today. Need to get the bike cleaned up and…

- Wisconsin Riders? I got back from my trip around Lake Michigan yesterday morning around 0100. I left a little bit after 1400 on Tuesday and was hoping to make it around in a day but ran into a few unforeseen circumstances. I traveled…
- Wisconsin Riders? Epyon007 It would be cool to have a little MN/WI VFR get together this summer! Sounds like a great idea, maybe for a day ride or something small to start a tradition going forward.
- Wisconsin Riders? MaxSwell... 36, so not terribly young. Epyon007...I live just outside of Madison, as MaxSwell stated, the Driftless area is a great location as is a trip through the Kettle-Moraine forest. Have you ridden anywhere near…
- Tire Plug -> Patch Experience I've had good success with just using a plug. I had a Kawasaki ZX6R a few years back that picked up a screw in the back tire. I was leary at first, most people I have spoke with have led with the notion that a…
- Fog Or Spot Lights I'm curious as well. I'd like to see some fitment photos if anyone has them. I would like to find some that are quick release for use on long touring rides.
- Wisconsin Riders? Just curious if there are any Wisconsin riders out there? Anyone interested in any long distance rides? Around Lake Michigan would be an easy quick one to start. If my riding pants come in early enough on Monday I may…
- 8Th Gen Front Forks Thanks for sharing your thoughts. I had the same concerns when I picked up the bike from the dealership. I thought for sure something was loose or damaged. I noticed it the second time I took it out as well. I figured…
- Good Tail Bag For 8Th Gen. I've attached a few photos of the Kriega US 40 Tailbag system and how it looks attached to the 8th Gen. Every combination fits great. I like that even once it's connected you can take the whole thing off just by…
- New Guy From Prairieville, La Hi, guys [image: emoji112.png] . I've been lurking for about a week while I waffled on what bike I wanted. One look at the white 8th gen in person and I was hooked, picked it up today and couldn't be happier. It's just…
- New Guy From Prairieville, La WOW!!! Another VFR in Prairieville Welcome. If you spot me playin in traffic on the Airline flag me down. Just installed the Ixil exhaust, makes plenty music with the db killers removed. Got mine from "Freindly" in…
- Good Tail Bag For 8Th Gen. "Dazed and Confused", Thanks for posting the pic. Any chance of seeing it with a 20? Just curious how much it hangs over the seat...
- Good Tail Bag For 8Th Gen. I was thinking about the Kriega 40 combo. Seems like it would be enough to house everything I would need on a long trip and allow some versatility with it's modular design. Looks like it'll mount up well with the…
