jacobhawkins Posted January 14, 2018 Report Share Posted January 14, 2018 Pretty good numbers stock. Cold out, so that helps a little, but you should have plenty of fun. Any plans to make it more awesome over the winter? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Expand Right now the goal is to get frame sliders, radiator guard, & fender eliminator. Probably going to do a decat and tune after that. Also looking at spools and stands. The 2018 model I'm getting comes with factory quickshifter. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JustinNck1 Posted January 17, 2018 Author Report Share Posted January 17, 2018 Waiting for this new bike is a drag, even if the weather is shit. First part came in today though. Vagabond Fender Eliminator kit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
what Posted January 17, 2018 Report Share Posted January 17, 2018 I was hoping you meant the first part of the new bike, as in, they are shipping it to you in parts that you then get to assemble until spring. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Expand If it's anything like the way a new Indian is shipped, it's a battery connection and spin and the mirrors and it's ready to go.

I'm thinking of swapping out for sport touring tires on the Triump next time I need new tires. Could get a lot of miles out of them I think. Though with how well the Q3+ is holding up on the 1000, I may try that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Though with how well the Q3+ is holding up on the 1000, I may try that. Expand From what I have read, they won't last long. Sport touring tires have plenty of grip for the street. I'll probably start running a 190/55 on the FJR so I don't have to keep 2 different sets of tires in the garage. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't have the internal restraint. I have salt water remnants on the garage floor from a new dual sport. Come on spring! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JustinNck1 Posted January 21, 2018 Author Report Share Posted January 21, 2018 I couldn't take it anymore. I had to take the bike out today. Did my short 14 mile loop. Wow this thing is awesome. Had TCS and Mode in the most forgiving, still picked up the wheel a few times. This was my first time using a quickshifter, which is awesome. The 30 feet from my garage to the road was a soupy muddy mess so now the bike is all dirty. Time for some cleaning... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
