    110 90/19 - 150 80/18?

    Thanks for your replies. I've been running many, many 705's and they're great, and priced super well but 5k miles on the rear is maxxed. Since I've not had any problems with with the Shinko 705"s I went to Shinko's website and they have a Tour Master I thought I'd try. The sizing is in that 110...

    Which Exhaust Slip-On has the best sound / performance?

    Resuscitating old thread, breathe baby, Assuming these riveted can type slip ons are internally similar/the same. Are any of you guys repacking? If so, how often?

    Thanks So I would just have it inspected in its current modded condition and be good to go as a new resident (14 Super Ten)? I seem to be thick headed about the specifics. Thank you for your response.

    Shinko 705 handling

    I gotta chime in. I'm on my 12th 705 rear between my (sold) GS and my beloved S10. I simply can't complain. Not at the price point, There are better tires out there but I'd rather replace my rear around 5k miles anyway. I run to So Cal from E Wa every year through central OR and NV in 90...

    Suggestion for all windscreen winglet buffeting wind noise posts ....

    14 NON ES here; MRA Xscreen Madstad Power Bronze winglets I'm 6 ft even. 206lbs and I think this is going to be fine for me. Better now than my stock 08 12gs IMO. This combo was gathered largely from the fantastic knowledge that so many have contributed on this great site ::012::

    Got my wings

    Cbaileys wont work on the 14 and up, very different. I ended up getting the Power Bronze in dark tint. 2 weeks now and quite happy. no experience with other brands. I went with these because the Yamahas only come in clear.

    Hey there guys! Has anyone tried these hand gaurds on their S10? I am considering changing bars to protaper contours. Do I have to re-tap Protapers with aftermarket hand gaurds?
