    Helmets

    Mine is a Shoei GT-Air 2. Also have the Sena audio system which is meh, but I can take phone calls and it works great for that. Also it syncs to the ride command so I can see info, skip songs, etc.

    Helmets

    Shoei GT-Air II. With the addin Sena headset. The helmet is very comfortable, previous was a Scorpion Carbon and it's not even a comparison. I have also had an Arai(2006), also very comfortable but hotter and no inner sun visor.

    I had the cheapo from Amazon, it was basically worthless. Now I'm running a medium sized dowco. It's great.

    Questions about Lloydz tunes

    No idea, most said they were getting close to 150 so I figured an extra 20ish miles NBD. I rode it pretty gently at first. I know mine was running lean lean though. I was told it was one of the earliest builds had first version software the first time I took it in.

    Questions about Lloydz tunes

    Mine went from around 160-175 miles on a tank to like 90ish. Cut my fuel economy in half. I still have some surging between 3400-4500 rpm. Also have the 2nd start thing if it's sat for a bit. TBH the tune was necessary due to the exhaust but I honestly think it could be better. At some point...

    Raximo Levers Install

    Sweet, thanks. yeah, I was trying not to completely destroy it. Used a piece of rubber to hold it and ended up getting it loose. Tightened up no problem. Next time I'll know I can get the cap off. Just didn't seem like it was made out of plastic. Also need to swap my bars. The sun has faded the...

    Raximo Levers Install

    How TF do you get the bolt out of the stock clutch lever? It's like a dome, not an Allen no way to keep the bolt from moving trying to loosen the nut. Been fucking with it for way too long. About to glue it just so I can snap it loose

    Those who replaced their clutch levers, how do you remove the cylinder from the OEM lever?

    Where To Buy Raximo Levers

    Placed an order, got no sort of verification, but the money is out of my account. Tried emailing, but have not gotten a response. If I don't hear anything in a day or so gonna dispute it with my bank. Moto-sport has the Puig levers in stock and I'll probably just order those. Unless I get a...

    How to Check and Adjust Chain Tension for the FTR 1200

    I'm gonna post to this thread to obtain some more info as the manual is prety vague and/or bikes are different as far as chain sliders go. It states to measure at the end of the chain slider, but my slider ends right at the front chain guard mounting point but the top does extend out quite a bit...

    Visiting California brought my bike

    Got the DBK in. Works great, still sounds the same, just quieter. I think this will keep me from getting pulled over it being so damn loud while I'm here in Cali. I lost the OG ring to the canister though, think it got thrown away by accident.
