    @skippert or anyone with helpful advice...
     
    I'm about to install the APE manual CCT. I've already had the TSB performed and it's starting to make noise again.
     
    My question is.. the APE instructions say that if your tensioner is hydraulic that you must block off the oil feed or it could result in a low oil pressure condition. I know our tensioners aren't hydraulic but they do have an oil feed. Shold I be concerned with this when installing the APE? I had kit 1 installed that added the colar to the right rear engine cover bolt.

    Did you find out about your oil question ?

    dont run the 36-42 combo, its not the proper pressure for this bike. its just a tyre-category guide for the 120-180 front rear combo... all brands suggest the same tyre influation... i dont care what the sticker says, i have tested from 2015 different pressures and have settled with 33-35 combo for solo riding, especially summer time. when i put a new tyre for the break in, and the first 300 km, i run 34-38...
    if you see the sticker to the new tracer 900 gt model, they have a new combo... taking feedback from the riders just like me and their search all these 3 years worlwide... the pressure is changed to 33-36 solo riding, 36-42 rider + pillion

    Hoping to get your opinion on the tyre pressures for 110 kg rider on pilot 5s with and without luggage, im thinking without luggage 34/38 as per your suggestion what about with two panniers and tail bag, ie touring.

    Also I agree with your subsequent comments about modding, what have you done ? My 2016 has

    Front and rear suspension

    MCC cruise

    Heated grips

    KTM hand guards

    Stock screen with xscreen lip, still not happy <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<

    Seat, custom but still not happy <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<

    Raised forks thru triple by 8mm

    quick shifter

    intergrated LEDS for blinkers ie running lights stop lights etc

    Mods to be, skid plate, cages, loud horn, hwy pegs suggestions advice ?

    Have i missed anything worthwhile, thanks bud.
