    Hey RidingupandDown, Haven't been on here in a while. We're on Long Island:( Not great dirt riding around here, but my son and I have been out east the last couple weekends, in the pine barrens. Lots of fun. We ride up in Vermont, and are looking forward to checking out the PDR this Summer...

    New England Super Tenere get together(s)

    Mike (husband) and I will be there. Probably not on the S10 though. I will be on a DR650 and he will be on a Wee. No dirt tires on the S10 right now. That could change though. We're heading to The Blue Ridge Parkway in 2 weeks for a week of riding, and I'll prob need new tires after that :)...

    Maps for Blue Ridge Parkway

    Thanks. I think I will get the maps. How are the roads in the mountains? My niece was through there not long ago and she said there was still snow and some were not open yet. Still cold n nasty here but I hope things will warm up a bit by then. Motormom

    Altrider luggage rack with Coocase top case?

    It looks like the Altrider rack works well and I like the little storage spot underneath, but I'd like to get another Coocase S50 top case. I had one on my VStromand it worked well, but it went right on the stock rack. Anyone know if this will work well, or should I just go with the SW Motech rack?

    What should the Fork tube height be after lowering the rear 1"

    I have Jaxon's links on my bike, and the forks are lowered 13mm. It feels same as stock, and it feels great to be able to get my feet down a bit more. Still on my toes, but now my toes and almost the balls of my feet are solid on the ground. Much better. I can still get the bike on the...

    Soft luggage question

    Well I got the aluminum, cut the hole and bent and works ok. But the back by the handgrip is a problem. The aluminum is only 1", and the piece going in from the handgrip is wide, about the same diameter. I cut out a piece of the bar and it sits on top of the back of the grab handle, right in...
