I'm 245 without gear. Any idea what spring (part#) I could use. It's a 2019 S10 ES.

I have a 2012 Street Glide. No tire issues whatsoever. I also have a 2022 FJR1300 but dont have enough miles on it to tell. I will know after this summer on the FJR and will update.

I totally agree. It's definitely bike specific and not tire specific. As for a suspension upgrade I'm not sure its on my radar. I couldn't justify upgrading the suspension. I'd rather just replace the front tire every year and deal with it. Frustrating yes but it doesn't affect my ride. It's...

Hey that's me ! I'll buy that. Makes sense because my buddy rides much more easy than I do. I'll give it a try. Won't be as much fun but Ill try !

Whats the agreed upon Front and rear PSI for these bikes? What are most guys running with success?

I'm thinking the same. My buddy who rides the identical bike doesn't have the same issues as me but he's also 50Lbs lighter than I am also. It might just be my size and yes.....I have also just figured that it's a trade off. Just was hoping that there was an easy fix but apparently not.

Hey guys. Bought this bike with about 3000km on it with new tires on it from a dealer. Tire pressures checked daily before rides and kept to spec. Had nasty front tire cupping on these Michelin Anakee 3s 80/20s after about 5000km and figured it might have been the road conditions. So....next...

Curious what HID system you went with.

I'm interested. PMd you

Ride an adventure bike with a damper and you'll know why he's asking. I rode my buddies HD PanAm and the steering was next level compared to my S10 and I can rail that S10 on corners. Next time your riding the S10 wiggle your bars back and forth very lightly. It's got a definite wobble to it...

Yes probably been using cheaper options rather than better ones. Good info. Thanks. I'm open to LEDs but they gotta work and they gotta last. What's everyone using for a better LED ? Like I said. The LEDs I've used seem patchy (dark spots).

So yes....not a huge fan of LEDs just because of the shadowing. I just don't find them bright enough for me. Looking for alternatives

Anyone reccomend a good Headlight lamp upgrade ? I was looking at PIAA extreme white halogens. Anyone use them ? PS. I'm basically blind at night. Can't see .

I sure hope so. I really dont want to gut the exhaust and probably wouldn't. I'd be really happy with extra sound and horsepower but if I don't get extra sound I'll still be happy with horsepower

Not sure about years and what fits what but I know the arrow fits no prob with a SW Motech skid plate. That's on a 2019. Not sure that helps.
