Well the insurance co totaled the bike -- said repair est was $5900!! I could have kept the bike for salvage, but they wanted $900 for it and I...
One thought to consider: I've noticed the aluminum rear sprockets seem sensitive to dirt and other contamination -- here in NJ the crap they put...
Thanks Dude - I'll try that
Very interesting dyno-info, if the insurance pays to fix my bike, I'll try it.
Usaa is giving me the run-around about my gear, and that's starting to piss me off. My Triumph is insured with Progressive and they will cover...
I'm hoping insurance pays for a new helmet, my suit seems ok. The bike might be repairable, but there are alot of expensive broken pieces. Upper...
Ahhhh... The great question: does it actually make the bike faster? I guess if you think it's faster then it must be! :) I've done the flapper...

I would absolutely powder coat! (paint will chip while you watch it!) The white's not bad, but I kinda like black, or maybe gold. Sell the F2 and...
I'm glad all is well with your 5th gen!! Now time to ride!
See thats what I don't get -- I did a valve adjustment to my bike and I'm not clear on the exhast port idea. There didn't seem to be a port for...
The "pair" valves as you call them seem to be part of the pcv (positive crankcase vent) system. If you block them off wouldn't that cause oil...
Had the GPS on my 5th gen show 134 close to redline in 6th, but that was with 1 down in the front and three up in the rear. (pretty quick, but not...
Had the hawk in the Living room for one winter! Done the Hotel room thing, had the cops come and tell me it's a nice bike but it has to go...
