Some PIA moments this year. Went to go for a ride, found a screw in the back tire. I need a 46mm socket to get the rear tire off. Front tire needs a 22mm hex for the axle. Not easy tools to find and they are not in the bike kit... And, for the first time in my life, I dropped my bike in...

Sooooo.... Anyone want to get a ride in?

I actually fit the soft bags on yesterday. Yeah, they do rest on the pipes a bit, but the pipes are CF and do not get hot, plus the bags have heat-shielding so I don't think it'll be a problem. I actually slid them back to the point they rest well on the passenger footpegs. Seem pretty stable...

That's good to hear. I figured it would get better, guess I just need to ride more. :)

Haven't been in there yet, TBH I hope to avoid it. There are some things I know I'm going to have to go in for (valve adjustment come to mind) but the Triumph is really easy to maintain. I just went on a 5 hour ride yesterday. It was the first long ride on the Triple and it was a blast...

:welcome: I'm always game for a ride. Matter of fact, if anyone has some time next week let me know. I'm itching to get the bike through some turns.

Here's a new shot of the bike. New signals, sliders, sticker removal, wash, wax, and a lube.

Soooo, anyone up for a ride? I'm off for the summer and am dieing to get on some fun roads with friends.

Man, that does sound like and adventure. But hey, that's what riding's about.

Can't go wrong with Canon. Excellent optics, great processors, easy menus, and easy software. They make shooting great photos easy. I have had 4 Canons and 2 Nikons (which are also great quality), the only other brand I would consider is the Olympus for its rugged Tough cameras. Waterproof...

Not to steer this in another direction, but "legalize it!" Sick of this crap happening, sick of immigration problems, crime, and politics associated with the marijuana trade.

Freakin' steal! An awesome headlight with a proper HID install, and all the legwork to get this right. Someone's getting a good deal.

I hate guns.

Oddly no. SLC is usually on some sort of top-ten list, but I guess not this one. Our air pollution is pretty bad in the winter lately.

Nekid is mo betta. After you ride a naked bike for a bit, you'll love it.

Not contentious, I'm glad to share what I have learned with others. I know it sounds good, and sometimes it even looks good, but there are so many things are wrong with sticking a "kit" in the reflector. Improper bulb alignment, large amounts of glare, perceived brightness leading to loss of...

I'm always glad to hear people looking for alternatives to HID. I can't wait until that fad eventually dies, it's such a bad idea, As for 80/100, I ran one on the H4 side and did notice a VERY hot lens. However, I had no melted wires, no melted lenses, and no problems with charging. I also...

Unfortunate how many time that happened to me when I was younger. Luckily never on my bike. :BLAA:

37, I got bored and my eyes hurt now. Seems I don't do well with greens.

This. I find my riding positions change drastically depending on circumstance. For example, I am not putting my knee out on high-speed benders, I keep my body tight to the bike, keeping my body weight to the inside of the bike's centerline. I'm assuming you're asking about mid-speed turns...
