  1. Moved items to classifieds seats and liners are sold, beak and windshield still available
  2. You know what I don't get? People that feel the need to comment on everything even when they have nothing useful to add to the conversation.
  3. I'm southwest of downtown Kansas City about 30 minutes in Eastern Kansas if anyone wants to do local pick up very near Paola Kansas
  4. Yes, those are retail prices, thought it said retail out to the side?? I'm not sure what to ask for the stuff. I think 50% off retail plus shipping on everything except the seat. The seat literally has 50 miles on it.
  5. I traded my 2020 Tracer GT today for a new Star Eluder and will have some things for sale soon, just a heads up. Would be great to sell it all to one person but I will split things up. Everything is in new condition since the bike only has 500 miles on it. Bagster Seat with orange piping and Bultex foam, retail $400 Puig Touring Windshield, retail, $140 Puig Beak, retail, $150 FJR 1300 Bag Liners, they fit these bags perfect, retail $60 I will list soon but thought I would post in case you were wanting to order these things. All offers considered but don't be ridiculous.
  6. I got the Bagster with the Bultex foam. I like it. But have no idea about the non bultex
  7. Maybe this is old news but I got a Front Brake Switch Recall in the mail today for my 2020 GT
  8. The bike is fine right out of the crate for most. I wouldn't want to be a passenger one one though. I'm 6' 235 and the suspension works fine for me as do the stock tires. Wear that set of tires out and then buy what you want.
  9. Couldn't tell you a thing about the Spyder. But I had a lot of seat time in the Ryker. I had the Rally Edition, completely adjustable suspension front and rear. I even upgraded the sway bar to the upgraded CanAm version. Still a POS. If the road was smooth it was fine. But one little dip or bump in the road sent you flying across the lane. With a single wheel in the front you can kinda dodge these things but with 2 in the front it becomes a losing battle. If and when I ever come to the point where I have to be on a Trike it will be a Goldwing variant with 2 in the rear. I got lucky to be able to trade the Ryker for the Tracer GT, I only lost a couple grand and traded back to the selling dealer. He had heard similar complaints as mine.
  10. I would argue that fact. I owned a CanAm Ryker Rally Edition for a year. You talk about a twitchy unpredictable ride. Hated that thing. Bought it on a whim because my son was going to buy one and start riding, that never happened. I couldn't trade that POS soon enough. There are so many fantastic aftermarket Trike kits for Goldwings I don't see a reason for Honda to get into this business. I probably see more HD Trikes on the road than anything. But the Goldwing is the way to go for handling and performance. I have yet to see a Niken on the road. I don't think the market is there for that style of so called Trike.

  12. I added Rostra cruise to my 2011. Should have never sold that bike.
  13. Lots of significant changes in 2010 on the Concours, some good some bad. I wouldn't compare a 2010 and up to an 08 that's for sure. But the love of the bike really came after Ivan's Tune. Fixed all the fueling issues when going full closed throttle. It was a great machine but definitely demanded respect. Mean looking bike too and with aftermarket exhaust sounded as bad as it was and pushing 150 hp it was a blast to ride. Loved that bike. Mine was a 2011. I sold it before I killed myself on it.
  14. Should have had that Connie flashed by Ivan, all that nonsense goes away and will absolutely smoke the Tracer. The best $300 you will ever spend. I don't notice this on the Tracer though. The factory map in the Kawi's was horribe.
  15. Simple Green, it won't hurt the finish on anything and is biodegradable. Dawn dish soap is a great choice also.
  16. Doesn't make sense to go cheap on fuel if premium is available just to say hey look at me I saved 50 cents. Not even worth the argument. If your going to be traveling and only 87 is available I'm sure the world will continue to turn as will your engine. But yep these fuel threads are as bad as oil threads.
  17. I would use, if at all possible, what the owners manual calls for. Premium Unleaded
  18. Those look great. Where did you get them?
  19. I have kinda given up on this LED turn signal quest. I have ordered 3 sets and they are all crap. Hard to find one with the running light for the front that isn't Chinese crap. The search continues. I will keep my TST relay, signal adapters and wire adapters in hopes I will find something decent. But for now I will wait.
  20. Yep, the driving light is a 3rd wire in the 3 pin connector in the front. Same connector for the rear turn signals just missing the 3rd wire and pin. Turn signals on motorcycles have to be amber to be legal in the US. You could also just add adhesive strip LED's to the existing hand guards. Something like this would work great on the hand guards 1 Pair Bright Amber LED Fork Strips Turn Signal Lights For Motorcycle Universal | eBay Find great deals for 1 Pair Bright Amber LED Fork Strips Turn...
  21. Yep, mine has that strap for the tool kit
  22. You were right. Amazon LED turn signals were bright but not enough surface area in my opinion, returned them. Any suggestions?
  23. I do see they make a Carbon Fiber Fork Wrap, that looks like the best alternative even though a little gold will show at the bottom.
