I do like the idea of no waste... 👍 Over here we get 3 points for 1 tyre being illegal. 12 points and a ban.

I can't see the road camber making much difference to tyre wear, when you think about the width of the tyre on the road, Imo. I'd be worried about points on my license with that rear. 😯 Also, i only use rear brake for cleaning disc purposes, if I remember. 🙂

QUICKSHIFTER ISSUES TRACER GT
Dodgy Knees replied to CHARLIE C's topic in FJ-09 Known issues and solutions
I'm not gonna mention silent movies...anyway this issue has been discussed a few times and can be down to the slightest touch of your left boot. I hear what you say, but have you bought new boots.??? -

Advice on rack and topcases
Dodgy Knees replied to FB4004's topic in FJ-09 Tracer 900 General Discussions
I have been looking at racks but not for box, just for strapping options. Today I got my 80L bag on pillion seat and managed to fix to grab rails with rok straps with ease. Very happy and no need for rack. -
Is there a Triumph in your past?
Dodgy Knees replied to Mvich's topic in FJ-09 Tracer 900 General Discussions
I always think 4 cylinders is 1 or 2 too many in a motorbike. 🤔 -
Is there a Triumph in your past?
Dodgy Knees replied to Mvich's topic in FJ-09 Tracer 900 General Discussions
To be honest, I've always liked triumphs, before buying the tracer i was looking hard at 1050 tiger's but my mate bought one so I was very happy to go get the mighty 900 triple. -
This is the R..is there a base model.? They'll be some cheap 790s to be had.

Its the missing piece of the ktm pie.

May be worth taking it up the road and re check. If links are good, is the new chain seating correctly on sprockets, do the links sit within the teeth.? Other than that, are the sprockets faulty.?

I had a green 1996 Thunderbird. Great bike and with the pipes it came with, the sound was superb. No faults. Also had the yellow TT600 four. It gave massive confidence on fast sweepers due to the superb handling, all owners say this, but it did have issues and i got rid. -
Later rear carrier fitted to 2016 model
Dodgy Knees replied to v1nn1e's topic in FJ-09 Tech Questions
No boxes just rack for strapping down stuff. I use pillion seat for luggage. It would give me a few more options. -

I'm thinking about a rack for my 18 tracer. Which is best.? -
I also reckon Zero are ahead of the game at the moment. Not looked recently but were doing a few different styles , easy charging and great fun , going by the vids I've seen. Still a bit expensive though. At a bike show last November i got chatting to the super soco guys who offer a cheap E motorcycle, but not convinced it was anything more than a short distance commuter whereas the Zeros could easily be a proper weekend fun bike. A 200 mile range is all the fun I'll ever need for a day out, but not a lot less.

I've put my name down for the Etracer, coming out in 2030. 🙂

Clock condensation
Dodgy Knees replied to Dodgy Knees's topic in FJ-09 Tracer 900 General Discussions
It's not a biggy, but it's there. I'll see how it goes for now. Rather keep the clock ticking. Bike pretty useful at the moment until we're all locked up. 😟 -
Welcome back Wordy. 👍

18 tracer. 2000 miles on clock. I've noticed condensation inside clocks. Doesn't affect anything but ain't quite right. Anybody else had this.? Is it worthy of a warranty claim.?
-
I've never gave my bikes names, but nowt against folks that do. 👍

Is it possible that you favour r/h corners. Roundabouts may increase wear on that side, especially big grippy ones.
