    Stupid Crappy OEM side case locks

    Okay, this is my second time down this road. Last time it happened, I locktited and lubed everything. Somehow the blue locktite on the right side case didn't hold the lock together. So last night I tried to remove the key from the lock and the entire core came out. No matter what Dallara...

    PayPal fees

    Well, this will ruffle some feathers but here goes. I hate liars and cheats and thieves. We all do some of this stuff big and small but I, personally, try my best not to. Makes me feel better and makes the world a better place. When someone sells me something and I use PayPal as a payment, I...

    OEM pannier locks redux

    Okay. These locks SUCK. May be the only thing I will say Yamaha completely buggered when they designed this bike. I was riding around SE Kentucky this weekend (since the SE Rally was just too much slabbing for the time allotted) and my topcase lock center just pulled out. Who makes a lock...

I'm trying to convince him to go to the rally in Colorado this summer but he doesn't want to go alone. Anyone going? (I'm posting for him because he isn't too big on the...

    Howdy from Louisville, KY

    Well, I picked up my used 2012 Super T this week and so far I love it. ::015:: I'm coming off an 07 Wee which I love too! Looking to add a few farkles and swap out the windshield so I'm in still air at 75. And I'm looking to see your Super T and what you've done with it. Anyone up for a lunch...

    Tire installer/mechanic in Louisville

    Hello folks! Just got a used 2012 Super T in Louisville and it needs a new rear tire. Anyone in Louisville care to share their opinions of place to go to have the work done? I have been using Commonwealth for my WeeStrom and they were fine. Thanks! Your Uncle, Buddha (aka LiveStrom over at ADV)

    Final Drive Oil change

    Okay, total new guy here so I apologize if this is stupid. I'm looking at a used 2102 and want to know when the final drive oil change is first due. Is it at 600 miles or 6000 miles? Thanks a bunch. I'll introduce myself in the proper place when I have the bike! Your Uncle, Buddha PS ...
