I got my SHAD comfort seat yesterday. Ordered it 5-28 took some time but well worth the wait.The seat came in gray looks awesome. The installation was super easy,just put in 6 rubber bumpers and 2 grommets.My back seat pops right up,maybe because I lubed the hell out of it! Took it for a ride...

I find that if I wait a few seconds with the clutch pulled in the clunk is about half as clunky

I use a GREASE NINJA chain lube tool. It saves a lot of lube by minimizing overspray. The little tube is a pain to keep hooked up. If you can find a more limber tube the tool would be perfect

Turtle wax ice is best hands down. I have a jeep and the black plastic fenders are a real pain to keep shiny and black.I have used Turtle wax ice for 4 years and the plastic and paint is still perfect. BTW it is also silver and black. The ice spray detailer works like a waterless wash saves many...

WOW highway 17 is nasty almost always. I think a mushroom plug would be good because it cant pull back out.BTW my son now lives in Aptos,he has a classic 1985 nighthawk 650 and I hope to ride with him down there. Please let me know of any special rides you know of down there. I love the ocean!

Use duct tape to protect engine case when removing clutch/fuel line bracket. Also use duct tape to hold spacers in place. Gorilla is my favorite!

I hear ya! This bike is an addiction in itself like all my other bikes. But I really love all the accessories(farkles) because they are all function over form and really improvements. The cool tools are also that way. I am really glad the stock tools are a screwdriver and fuse puller,that way I...

I bought the bike with no test ride and very little research. I hit the rev limiter a couple times and it hits like you threw a rod! So I adjusted to that. The seat has improved for me with the addition of sw-motech footpegs set 30mm lower. There is way to much aftermarket stuff my UPS driver is...

okay I am really impressed with sw-motech products. The alu-rack fit perfectly! I just ordered a tail bag for the rack. The engine guards again fit perfectly. I liked all the supplied hardware. A lot of attention to detail. The footpegs in the lower position helps me with the seat issue. My...
