Newbie could be in too if it's in range.

Glenn Beck is a nut case don't you know? Baba Booey!

My nationwide auto insurance went up too. Bike is the same.

Sorry if it is a double post. Not bad for a polish guy

Do you remember what the estimated shipping date was? I wanted to order at 7 am at work but forgot my wallet at home and I could swear it said shipping date was 9/21. Well i ordered it finally at 2pm and ETA is now at 9/28. (2yr contract with verizon.)

Because you have compassion for your fellow human being.

Good scenario: Crank case needs cleaned out, inspected. If all is okay then they just mount on a new cover, change the oil and your good to go. Add $200 labor and google how much a cover, oil and filter is. Bad scenario: They find broken parts upon inspection. Nobody can tell you how much that will be till they take apart the engine. Thats when it could get expensive.

Well well ... Victory is taking a hold

Just a fyi. "Hard Water" is Calcium and Magnesium in water. It accumulates in tight spots like coffee machines, irons etc and on air tried surfaces. When it comes to washing your bike/car the calk is the last thing I worry about. More important is when, what you use and how you clean and dry the bike, like a brush, sponge and leather. I washed hundreds of cars and bikes in my car mechanic apprenticeship in Germany in the 90's. The most important I learned: Never ever clean/dry your car/bike or window in direct sun light, ever! The paint/widow etc must be cool to the touch, always! Cover the ignition system with a plastic bag before you begin. Use lots and lots of water while the sponge is in contact with the paint/chrome. Don't ever push to hard on the paint/chrome and rinse the sponge constantly. Compressed air is very handy to dry your bike and all electrical connectors. Leather works too but make sure its wet completely and the dirt is completely removed from the bike. Oh and keep great distance between the power washer nozzle and your bike. Electrical connectors can handle water (Rain for example) but if you get to close you literally push water by the rubber gaskets. I personally stay away from power washers when I clean my bike. Don't use to much force pushing the sponge leather etc onto the bike. Pre soak heavy, dry dirt. IMO: Wax is a waste of money. I only Polish a vehicle once, when I sell it.

Did you check the fuses under the right side mini fairing compartment? Did a fuse blow there in the past, did you then reinstall a new fuse that was rated the same or was it rated lower/higher? Does the new LED light have a fuse installed? You might have more responses if you ask or snoop around in a bike specific forum. Like this triumph maintenance & workshop talk.

Today we had a tornado warning. Of course I was with my bike out, she was wearing the mentioned tires. I monitored wunderground.com then picked a moment to head home, I did not encounter rain but the roads were wet, standing water everywhere! So i was careful. It was a solid ride. No twitches or sliding ect. just solid. I can recommend these tires! And I fucking rock http://stores.sportbiketrackgear.com/Detail.bok?no=11224
