I have had my hands on the stock seat, Russell seat, and Rick Mayer seat. I measured the pitch of the seat as it sets on a flat surface as shown below. Both the Russell and RMS have a pitch of 25 degrees, while the stock seat has a pitch of 14 degrees. Those who are adding washer to the front of...

Has anybody installed these: http://www.cyclenutz.com/Baja-Designs-Fuego-4-inch-HID-Driving-Light_p_44.html Got any picture of how you mounted?

Need spare rear wheel. Stock or aftermarket.

I modified my stock seat almost immediately. Had gel added, some shaping on the front to eliminate sharp edges, and a widing of the rear. For long rides, I was getting too much pressure on my tailbone. Recently I bought a used Russell of the forum. It is at least 1" taller than stock. It was...

Venture authorized me to post this here: http://www.bopisolutions.com/passion.php Last summer, my riding partner, Tim Yow, and me, rode 23,000 miles in 48 days circumnavigating the United States and Canada starting and ending in Key West. This included 2700 miles of the most notorious roads in...

The Altrider Skid plate has 8 mounting points all with nuts and washers. I knew I would be cussing the first time I had to take it off, which has to be done to change the oil filter. My hands are so big, I could barely hold the nuts in place to get them started. I removed the skid plate and...

Cross posted from MTF: Still working on the fuel connection but I have the tank mount complete. Used the Altrider rack and bolt on Givi mounts, homemade mounting plate, Southco Caribou style lock. Just slide underneath the two Give nubs and over the Givi Latch catch and turn lock to hold in...

A lot of folks install a bulkead fitting to plumb their auxiliary fuel lines: http://fjr1300.info/howto/bulkhead.html I don't like drilling the tank and was looking for a way to tap into the fuel pump housing like we do on the GL1800 Goldwing. Unfortunately, our fuel pump housing is plastic...

http://www.bagsforbikes.com I was very diappointed in the bag liners received from Micatech. I returned them and had Karla at bagsforbikes make some custom bags. For $109.00 including shipping I got four bags custom cut to fit the shape of the Micatech bags. The bag shown in the lid is...

http://www.bopisolutions.com/Tenere/tenere.htm I finally have my bike almost fully farkled. JustBob was a big help by installing my cruise and providing consulting on other mods.

I've searched all over the web and here and can't seem to find the number for the key blank. Anybody have this information?

I wanted symmetry so I installed the Givi Racks. You can see that there is additional space between the bike and back of the bag. You have to order SW Motech Adapter plates which convert the Givi Mount to Micatech or Trax Mount. Mine were not drilled properly and I had to oversize the holes. I...

I'm in New Castle, Indiana. I didn't pre-order but was able to pick up a tenere and have a little over 1000 miles on it. Most of the farkling is done except for the electrical. I'm the founder of the Motorcycle Tourers Forum http://www.mctourer.com and have several friends from the MTF who are...

Has anybody figured out how to tap into the fuel sending unit for adding an aux fuel cell?

How do you remove the flap that covers the gas tank key? I use a tank bag and it is a pain to use the key, so I want to remove the flap and will use a key with a knob on top to open the cap.

I'm mounting my remote on the dash. I did a search looking for how folks were mounnting their primary unit and protecting it from water. I only found one picture and it was fuzzy and and had no water protection. Pictures please.

I like symmetry. From what I understand the GIVI and Hepco-Becker side racks are symmetrical. Will Micatech bags (2 at 8") mount on either of these racks? If not I think I will go with the Jesse bags. Are any of the front crash bars symmetrical? I like the altrider stainless steel but would...
