Nice meeting you yesterday rick123! Nice chat with you and your buddy. Have a safe trip

so did you have a bath with your rear wheel yet? lol... just hanging by a thread waiting for your conclusion.

those are 2 other great choices...definitely on the right track.

@ecognomeist well any word yet?

this winter send your seat in to Terry at Terry's custom seats in Tennessee...he'll be the Dr. Phill to your ass and seat....lol

I also use the motion pro beadpro levers with their rim protectors. Lots of soapy/water mix to make things break easier. I have done 4 sets up to this point

thread file and a small triangle file...take your time and make sure to be using the right thread pitch on the thread file.

Congrats, you will enjoy it. Couple of tweaks here and there for your personal preference and you will be all set.

sweet! how do you like it so far? I have been eyeballing those r9t's for a while now. heard one the other day with a nice exhaust..sounded good

Been there, done that. just curious @wordsmith what bike were you riding?

I'm not sure about the city bag but I have Helibars riser on my FJ with a SW motech Engage bag that works fine...if that helps any

i've got one of those MT-01's as my second bike...love that thing

this was my dream bike. i was finally able to get one and i loved it...my hip didn't. don't have many pics on my computer for some reason of my most recent. and all of my old bikes are on photos

watching this to see what transpires, in case it is something silly that i can avoid when i remove my rear next time

don't forget Pete's superbike for tires. have bought 3 sets from them now. 613 motorsports in Ottawa seems to be an up and comer

i got my Penske rear shock from them...they seemed alright to me.

@Cruizin....do i detect another motorcycle forum for you?? I can't wait for the manufacture rides ...if they have them this year.

If it was me buying a new tracer it would be the non-GT model. I would use the money saved for a good Givi top box and panniers, mc cruise, heated grips(integrated OEM) and some suspension goodies. Quick shifter means nothing to me but being able to put a helmet in the side case means way more. There has been some great deals on non-GT models lately

Hey @Cruizin! Do these ladies ride Tracers? Lol. My wife wonders what I'm looking at when I say "I'm reading up about my bike"...she looks over my shoulder and says ya right. I'm not complaining ...just laughing on how I have to explain myself. Ya got pay the Bill's some how.

i have done both. comfort in riding from the shock wouldn't be as good as a good seat. the shock improves the ride as in the bike handling better. the replacement of the seat will be felt every moment you ride.

someone's bitter...i'll welcome wordy back to the fold..always has interesting insight to riding with his experience over the years. just lower it and enjoy wordy.

I’m waiting for a tracer M10 combo...that would get me all fired up!

That’s some serious self control...

Well...time for a new bike.

Just give him a call. Terry's Custom Seats is the name of his company. You can get him to use an existing seat pan for an an additional charge then he refunds it back when he receives your original seat. Great couple to work with. Home | terryscustomseats
