    Cool Wing

    Not mine, just happened to come across it. I think it looks pretty nice for what it is: https://omaha.craigslist.org/mcy/d/omaha-83-honda-goldwing/7035297134.html

    A TPMS question

    I'm wanting to get a Cobra TPMS. Am I to understand that there are risks to using the cap-style senders on the stock rubber tire stems? Thanks!

    My helmet lock

    Just thought I’d share my idea for securing my helmet if I have to leave the bike. A u-lock through the chin bar is infinitely preferable to a d-ring lock. Actually, my helmet doesn’t have a d-ring even if I wanted to use it. It hangs on the bike pretty unobtrusively when not in use.

    Let's see your highway pegs.

    I really would like some highway pegs, but I'm unsure of how to accomplish this. Some pics would be nice :)

    What is this bike?

    The CL ad just says Yamaha. No year, model, nothing. It does say it's in "excellent condition". $900.

    I've never used the kill switch to shut off the bike

    Of all the bikes I've owned, I've never done that. Always just shut it off with the key. Never had a problem. Is this unusual behavior? Do most riders use the kill switch?

    Backrest for the pilot

    I don't think I've seen many bikes with backrests, other than for the passenger. Does anybody have one on their bike?

    S-10 scale models. Do they exist?

    I haven't seen any scale models of our bikes. Have you?

    AirHawk cushions- what size is best for S10?

    I'm considering trying an AirHawk cushion, but they come in a wide variety of shapes and sizes. Is there a best one for our bikes? As always, thanks for any help :)

    Well, I got it over with

    After work today I dropped the bike right in my parking spot. It went down slow, and thank God I just mounted my Advrider bars, so not only did it protect the bike, but it kept it high enough that I was able to lift it back up using the lower handlebar method. I wasn't sure at first, but I gave...

    Unobservent coworker

    I take my red ‘15 ES to work the other day, and a coworker tells me that it looks just like my old bike, except this one has a luggage rack. This was my last bike. I fail to see the resemblance.

    Anybody have a Madstad windshield?

    I'd like to know the distance from the center of the top mounting holes to the top of the windshield. And what size windshield it is. Thanks!

    Do you like English bikes?

    Here's walkthrough of Baxter Cycle in Marne, Iowa. I bought my S-10 from them. It was a trade-in, and as far as I could tell, the only Japanese bike in the whole place. Super nice people, and worth a visit if you're in the neighborhood. Their backroom is like a museum, with dozens of old...

    ROX 2" Pivoting Risers question

    Is it common to be able to bolt these right up without modifications to the hoses or cables? I watched an installation video, and it looked pretty straight forward. A little loosening from clamps was all there was, iirc. I think these will be one of my first farkels.

    S-10 Ergos

    I found out something interesting (to me anyway) today. One thing that attracted me to the Tenere in the first place is its KLR-like ergos. Well today, for the fun of it, I compared it on cycle-ergo.com with my long gone '79 CB750. It's closer to the S-10 than the KLR! Knees and hips are within...

    Schuberth C4- can the speakers be used with iPhone?

    The C4 apparently comes with built-in speakers and a mike. Is there a way to use this helmet with the iPhone?

    Use the whole gallon at oil change time?

    I remember some owner saying he would just dump in the whole gallon at change time. Does anybody here do that? Sure would simplify things :) I have no idea what complications can arise from overfilling.

    OEM aluminum skid plate

    From what I gather, this plate would be few people's first choice for protection, but an uninstalled one is coming with the '15 ES I'm getting soon (not soon enough!). I think it will be about all I need from a plate- just keeping the gravel and debris off. But I've seen zip on the interwebs as...
