    Looking to install the Altrider 2 inch Rox Risers on my 2014. My major question is this; Are the stock cables long enough? I've never installed them before and read a lot about leaning the bars back and having the cables to tight. I personally am not looking to do that, just want another 2...

    Tech Tip: Poor man's Tire removal

    Sometimes finding the right 19mm tool to take off the tires can be difficult. Of course you can use a 5/8ths butt end of a spark plug socket with a little electrical tape on it, I'd prefer to use a 19mm tool that fits properly. I'm sure you can find something for $40 bucks at touratech, but...

    After I get a dash infill panel, I'm looking at hooking up a USB, 12v plug and a voltage meter. I don't want to splice any wires and go directly to the battery. Can I connect all three leads together and then go to the battery or do I need three separate harnesses to the batt? It looks...

    Rear brake pedal adjustment

    A friend adjusted his rear brake pedal to fit his new boots better and the Cruise Control doesn't work. We adjusted it to the point so the light wouldn't stay on and I'm thinking it should be not so close and I assume it's messing with the sensor? For the thread police: I searched the threads...

    Don't look! Not for the Faint of Heart...another Tire question

    OK, I warned you. I'm looking for a good off road tire, front and back for the Oregon Back Country this summer on my '14. There are so many damn tires out there it's really hard to decided. I have searched the 6000 posts already on the forum about tires, and although the information is great...

    Back seat removal help needed.

    I took off the back seat to see what it was about and when I went to put it back on, one of the two bolts would not go back in. This is odd. I tried both bolts and on the left side, it only goes in about 3 turns and gets stuck. I tried to look around to see what the problem was and can't find...

Do you guys know if any of these places (or Revzilla that sells Altrider) offer any sales around this time of year or after the new year? I'd hate to pull the trigger now only to find out...

    Another dreaded Oil view line thread...

    OK, so I changed the oil today for the 600 mile 1st service. Keeping with the owners manual recommendation since doing it myself, I used Yamalube 10/40 and the same, but new, oil filter as stock. I drained out the oil in both places, put it on the side stand for the #2 drain, removed the oil...

    Stupid Noob question of the day

    We got to brand new '14's a few weeks ago and both have nearly 500 miles on them. I've noticed that when on the center stand and moving the back tire, it drags a little...like on the brake shoes. Wondering if this is normal since they are new, or do I have do defective bikes? :D
