Got the TORs, crossover and front crash bars fitted today.
I'll do a 12 minute tune tomorrow.
Question for you R3T owners who have fitted TORs before (didn't you haver a set too once @Kevin frazier )?
As it has a stock K&N insert and stock plumbing will I need a new tune or just the 12 minute idle reset?

I do have this R3T LMS one to put on later. Been in the shed since October last year
Not sure if it will be big K&Ns or more likely a RamAir to keep the Bearclaw stock.
I'll probably use the big K&Ns on the Flamin Toad Roadster.

Arrh Disaster struck or so it appeared.
I opened the a door to go for a ride this afternoon and found my gleaming bike HORIZONTAL not just tipped over but with both wheels HORIZONTAL lying on its RHS with the front wheel still strapped securely to this stand I had used to change bars, grips, screens, exhaust system, seats, panniers, crash bars, fit brand new LHS pannier shells etc. I also had the side stand down and it was chocked with a couple of 3"x2" timbers. I had noticed that the sidestand pad was only just touching when I had left the night before but thought it was fine.
It was fully loaded with the tall screen on and rolled right over on the vertical crash bar uprights.
No idea when it happened besides overnight. It didn't rock out but fell out sideways with the stand rocker still in fwd position.
PANIC and a few expletives emerged.....what have I dented scratched scuffed etc,
Rather than risk a slip or flip over I used some jacks and timber to gently raise it without straining until I could sit on it and pull it upright.
Then the Damage inspection began.......
but luckily I had already fitted the crash bars and while waiting for my factory pannier rails to arrive had fitted some RIVCO 1" Honda GL1800 6cyl h'way peg bars to the rear pannier crash bar. They have 58 holes for metal locating dowels to set but they didn't line up with my pannier pin stripes so I left the dowel pins out.
I MIGHT PUT MY SECOND SET ON TOO AFTER THE RESULT.
This RIVCO item was also listed for the dual headlight Rocket III to fit the 1" foot rails.

UNBELIEVABLE BUT THE ONLY DAMAGE WAS TO THE CHROMED PLASTIC END CAP OF THE USED OXFORD hOT GRIPS I BOUGHT FOR $50
A 4 MM SCUFF ON THE VERY EDGE!
RELIEF!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The old Lumix camera seems to work better with flash locked off

I got one of these old style front fender blades in Brass with black text years ago but recently found a Chromed brass version... so got two!
