@jeckyll Just outside Watson Lake, Yukon on the Alaska Hwy on my way from Dawson City after stopping in Whitehorse for a new back tire (the Dempster sure eats up tires...). Long day, was late at night and pitch black on the highway so I didn't want to just pull over on the side of the road if I...

85 KMs on flashing at 3000 RPM before I found a spot to to pull over and add 5 liters from my gas can. So didn't actually run out but I am sure there was no way I would have made the next 25 KMs to a gas station.

I bet there is an aluminum foil lining tucked up in that brain bucket also...

My front is making a crazy howl around the same speed range. Its loud, like really loud but with no vibration. Only have about 750 KMs on it as was wishfully thinking it was just braking in the tire. Will try to re-balance in the springtime I guess but funny that someone else is reporting the...

I have TREX bars and skid plate but never again for any of their products. I also experienced minor misalignment right out of the box but was able to "finesse" them onto the bike. The worst part of my bars was the absolutely horrible powder coating around half of the welds which produced rust...

I have the same racks on the same year/model bike. Also have a 1 gallon rotopax I was looking at mounting there also but eyeballing it looks super close. As in too close to call unless I actually mounted it and was able to cycle the suspension through it's entire range checking for clearance...

I have a couple of brand new left side (exhaust side) hard cases (no locks) but they are in black. Only need the one to eventually backstop my original one which is on it's last legs. Got them from a local dealer who I assume did a couple of right side insurance replacement jobs. LOL. PM me...

https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2413145 Mine ended up a little bit "loose" which I corrected by running a layer of electrical tape to the threads on the caps. Fit good now and stayed in place through a lot of washboard miles and no water ingress despite a lot of those miles in fabulous...

I bought these. No external ballast and fit well with a downloaded cap 3D print file I sent to a local print shop. Aukee H7 LED Headlights, 12000Lm 6500K 60W Bulb Extremely Bright All-in-One Conversion Kit https://www.amazon.ca/gp/product/B07RPJS9MV/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o05_s01?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Awesome thanks for all the replies and good info.

I have done a bit of searching and can’t seem to find the diameter of the tubes on the Givi PLR2119 or PL2119 pannier racks. Does anyone’s know it or can take a measurement for me please? I’m looking to see if a Giant Loop quick release mounting system that fits racks with 16-18mm tubes will...

@Lstayner How did those bulbs turn out for you in the end?

Coming from a Yamaha technician buddy of mine, the two smaller ones are not "connectors" that you would connect other connectors to but are likely connectors for the wiring already going into them. So hard to write that to make sense... Clear as mud right?

I gave T-Rex the opportunity to make it right. After many emails which went from them completely denying the claim as normal wear and tear, then these were said to be rock chips and not covered to where they finally agreed to provide a small discount which barely covered the cost of my fuel to...

I dropped mine off at the powder coater today. He was able to pick most of the coating around the threaded bosses and the welds just with his fingernail. Maybe my set was a lemon but he said there is no way that a competent powder coater should not be able to do a proper job on these bars. None...

I'm interested as I have a few pounds on you and need to address the suspension rear and front. If you are only having a few sets made I can see a $100 price but if more can be done at once then the cost should be a lot less than that. Of course then for myself and my fellow frost-backs I...

Yes, the Faraday Cage Effect with powder coating is what needs to be mitigated for corners or inside sections of the parts being coated but this is manageable if the proper equipment, powder and settings are used. After being blasted and recoated I would hope they will be as durable as many of...

***Caution*** Apparently when the powder coating around the welded connections on these bars crack and start to bleed rust after less than a couple thousand KMs with no crashes it will be considered "normal wear and tear" by T-Rex. Additionally it may also be mentioned to you from T-Rex that...
