All 35- Dunlop Roadsmarts Impression I just got back from the grand canyon run an have about 2500 miles on them, and no cupping. So far I am happy with these tires. Not much twisty riding to speak of, but loads and loads of boring highway mileage. I am…
- Dunlop Roadsmarts Impression I have a set on my ride and no cupping (didn't see any cupping in that picture). I have about 1000 miles on them and will be heading out to the grand canyon from Cali on Saturday. I will post up how the tires hold up.…
- Initial Review Of Dunlop Sportmax Roadsmart Tires I just spooned on a set of the roadsmarts. This is my first sporttouring tire in a long time. I bought them to hopefully get some extra wear. Me, my wife (on her SV650s with high bars), and 3 guys from work are riding…
- ? Fork Seal Leak Anybody try the dirtbike seal fix trick? You can use a piece of old film negatives, or what I use, a carved piece of Circuit City discount card (thin plastic). All you do is remove the dust seal with a small…
- The Official Oil Thread I like Mobil 1 gold cap best, but it got too expensive, so now I use Mobil 1 grey cap. Way cheaper, and I just change the oil more often. I tried Rotella T, but didn't like that is always looked dirty, even when fresh.…
- California Canyon Cramming - October 7 I miss the Rock Inn also. I need to ride in the street again soon.
- Harbor Freight Tire Changer Great idea guys! But I do my best scratching with the tire irons. That removal bar is only good for poping the bead IMO.

- Harbour Freight Tire Changer Three tire irons and rim savers. I only use the HF bar on the bead breaker.

- New 08 Models This thread had deviated way far from the motorcycle topic. I don't give care whether people hate guns or not, I like them, but this forum is about motorcycles, so closed it must.
- Helmet Cams - Spydereye I just set up a system on my helmet, (dirtbike helmet so far), and I can tell you that I did it for much cheaper. I bought a P-DVR from Circuit City for under $100, 2 one gig SD cards for $25 on Buy.com, a 480 super HAD…
- New Interceptor Finally Breaks Cover! I like it. I wonder what the gas milage will be?

- My New Adjustable Pegs ! What is the width between foot peg holder sides? I love those pegs and would like to try them on another application. My application is 3/4 inch between sides and 1/2 inch from the bolt hole to the inner edge. Thanks.
- How do you know when it's time... Mine went out at 28,000 miles. Lee's was toast years ago, but he still rides it. :unsure: If you want to go fast with compliance, order a new shock. The Penske's are American made by the way. Oh, I consider a worn shock…
- Michelin Pilot Mounting Question A quick search of the Michelin site returned no information on dots. I remember looking for the dots myself when mounting, and don't remember what I did. I think there were dots on the fronts, just not the rears.
- Nick Ienatsch 's The Pace Das Bone What do you Mods think...should we do some sort of sticky with this stuff to make it available to everyone? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Been there, done that. Not me, but one of the other mods. Take a look see. :wheel:
- Nick Ienatsch 's The Pace We sometimes have the lead rider pass the rolling road blocks, slow down until all can pass, than wick it on again. It doesn't make the cages very happy sometimes, but hey, they started it! :P

- Lower A Gen 5 For Free pseal I measured my "triangle" and found the following: AB and AC are equal, and BC is shorter than both of those.? Which two points should the shorter dimension connect in order to accomplish this lowering? Thanks,…
- Fresh Meat & PCW baileyrock I'm trying a set of M1's for the first time because of some suggestions and mostly because there discounted right now. I found the M1s to be ok, but they do slip a bit when worn and don't last as long as the…

- Best tires for the VFR??? Updated 2011 VFR4Lee, on Oct 23 2005, 07:38 PM, said: I've run through a bunch of D208s on the VFR, Works great. :thumbsup: Tried the D208 and then the Pilot Powers on the CBR. Either works for me there. :wheel: <{POST_SNAPBACK}>…
- Best tires for the VFR??? Updated 2011 I voted for the Pilot Powers, as I cannot think of a bike they couldn/t help out. I would have voted for the plain old Diablos, but only the stradas were listed. The Diablos are my current favorite, but the Powers are a…
- Faq: Low-budget Fixes Raise the rear to increase the ground clearance you just lost by raising the forks in the clamps. The VFR is way stable stock, and is still very stable by raising the rear/raising the forks. I did this to my 94 and had…

- Push-to-talk switch install I can't help you much. I bought it at a little electronics shop called IC Electronics here in So. Cal. I would search your local area for electronic shops, and yes, Radio Shack stuff is crap! :cool:
