    Harley Davidson Reveals ‘MOST POWERFUL PRODUCTION BIKE EVER'

    The CVO Road Glide RR, built on Harley’s touring platform, features a 131 cubic-inch motor that produces 153 horsepower and 150 lb-ft of torque. Riders will be hard pressed to get their hands on one though, as only 131 units will be produced, while its price tag is a scorching $110,000. :roll...

    Goodyear Has Sold Dunlop to Another Tire Company

    "So Goodyear, Dunlop, and Sumitomo's history goes way back. Sumitomo had acquired the Dunlop rights to the Dunlop name, as well as the rights to manufacture and market Dunlops in 1985. But in that deal, it didn't acquire the actual company. It was only later that Goodyear and Sumitomo struck a...

    Lucky Survivor (Helene) - Hope Everyone Else Is OK Too

    Luckily, my house didn't sustain any significant damage, while just within a mile from me homes were completely washed away or had heavy damage from falling trees. I didn't have power or water for a solid week, but thousands of others still have neither. Fortunate to be on a well, so with power...

    2.5 3R (GT) 30k Mile Forks Service (including seals)

    The front forks are due for maintenance at 30k miles. I put mine off until 35K, but just finished and thought I’d share my notes for those who might be interested in saving some money. The manual does a fair job, but as with many other projects in this manual it jumps around wildly from section...

    2.5 using oil

    Found out my bike has been leaking oil. It's always "used oil" and I wonder if this could be where it's been going all along- seems likely. It's coming from the gear position sensor and is slow enough that it never drips beneath the bike and may only happen when the bike is running. If so, the...

    2.5 Tire Availability

    What the "heck" is up with tires and this bike? First, it was Avons (never liked 'em anyway) and now that the Metzler Cruistecs are the new official tire you can't find the rear in retailers anywhere. I just called Metzler to find out when/where and they are supposed to call me back- I'd be...

    2.5 Mystery Fork Oil

    I'm getting closer to replacing the seals in the forks on my 3R having recently gone over 30K miles. I have the seals from Triumph, but trying to determine what fork oil to use. The service manual calls for ShowaSS47G which doesn't appear to exist on the Internet, anyway. None of the equivalency...

    Latest Mod - USB on the "dash"

    I've been using a big fat USB converter on the Din outlet (never figured out what plugs in *directly* to a Din outlet, btw 🤷🏼‍♂️) and finally decided to go with a more common sense solution. This involves drilling out the aluminum housing so that it will take the larger standard size 12V USB...

    Steering Head Bearing Check/Adjustment

    I was feeling a click when I'd come to a stop and then let off the front brake. I wasn't sure if it was a sticky caliper or the steering head bearing/adjustment. After lifting the bike and rocking the front end back and forth holding the forks I could feel it, so guessing it must be the bearing...

    When To Use Your Rear Brakes- Well, It Depends Doesn't It?

    Opening up for discussion on this topic which I've been exploring more lately, especially as it pertains to riding in the twisties. Most advice, based on racing, is to use the front brake to shorten the rake of your bike. This puts more pressure on the front tire, increasing contact area and by...

    Tire Pressure - Who TF Knows? 🤷🏼‍♂️

    @Kevin frazier and I have been trading info on tire pressure recommendations and, as you'd expect from the motorcycle community, the information from experts is conflicting. Interested to see what others are doing- sticking to the manual, or going your own way. I will say that I have stayed...
