Global Moderator mjh937 Posted April 6, 2018 Global Moderator Share Posted April 6, 2018 I found out the head stand I got for Christmas does not have the size pin I need, so I ordered one. I also ordered a set of Road 5's at the same time (as long as I am spending $13 why not spend $350) . As soon as I get the pin I am sending my forks to @pattonme so he can install the Matris kit. I am going to really enjoy this riding season with a new shock, new forks and new tires. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
guylee Posted April 7, 2018 Share Posted April 7, 2018 Finally took the plunge on the kabuto I've been eyeing. Not my first choice of graphics but it's the only thing left in stock in my size. https://www.revzilla.com/motorcycle/kabuto-aeroblade-3-tricolor-helmet?utm_source=bing&utm_medium=cse&utm_term=1100507344849|410|pg2292321|4cd5faa1-ac15-4d88-b57e-c575d46aff62&utm_campaign=PLA-Kabuto Helmets-Products&utm_content={CriteriaId} 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beemer Posted April 8, 2018 Share Posted April 8, 2018 I wanted some ankle boots that offered a little protection and looked/behaved like a normal shoe when walking, rather than a narrow plank strapped to the bottoms of my feet. My choices were limited because I don't like buying online and having to return because of fit issues. I went up to my Yamaha dealership, Barney's of Brandon and looked at what they had and settled on the Joe Rocket, Big Bang, 2.0's. Nothing new about the styling, they've been around a long time but at least I won't be mistaken for some Flash Gordon knock-off. https://www.amazon.com/Joe-Rocket-Motorcycle-Riding-Boots/dp/B00B49564Q/ref=sr_1_1?s=automotive&ie=UTF8&qid=1523197150&sr=1-1&keywords=joe+rocket+big+bang+2.0+boots 1 Beemer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beemer Posted April 11, 2018 Share Posted April 11, 2018 Ok, so I returned the Joe Rocket, big Bang 2.0 boots because they were too hot for my doggies and the toe was too tall, I had to bend my foot all the way back to get my foot in there to shift. Was too much of a struggle. I ordered a more vented ankle top boot instead and one with a lower toe. https://www.revzilla.com/spidi-x-ultra-shoe 1 Beemer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

208MT07 Posted April 20, 2018 Share Posted April 20, 2018 (edited) This came in the other day for the MT. Hoping that its loud enough for me with the DB killer, otherwise I guess my drill gets to see some action to get it out haha. Getting installed on Tuesday, and I'm also going to sacrifice the awesome riding weather most of next week to send in the ECU to 2WDW for a flash.

Beemer Posted April 20, 2018 Share Posted April 20, 2018 My BELL Helmet came in and so far I like it. I took it on a short, local ride and I do get some wind noise but I've had that with every helmet I've ever worn so I see wind noise as standard. It fits well and @ 3.34 lbs. it's verrrry light, I hardly know it's on my head. The Transitions photo-chromatic face-shield works great! It's just about the right tint on a sunny day. Not too dark nor too light. I haven't tried them at night time yet but I'm sure they will be fine, they get pretty clear in a dimly lit room. It gets plenty of air-flow, my head never got hot or sweaty. Of course it isn't July or August yet either but I'm pretty sure it will work well on the hottest days. You can always crack open the shield and it lets a ton of air in without messing with your vision. Best of all, it's not a knock off, it's a real BELL helmet. Gotta be careful when shopping online. 😉 Thank you Cruizin! 5 Beemer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beemer Posted April 24, 2018 Share Posted April 24, 2018 I just received my new camera last night and I'm pretty effing stoked! It's not the best camera on the market but it is the best camera for my needs. Now all I have to do is give the bike a good wash and wait for the right moment for a couple pics of it. Here's what I bought. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B079GDB7C7/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 Here's a couple of my first pics taken of St. Pete across the bay and Bahia Beach in Ruskin. 2 Beemer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zsoci Posted April 25, 2018 Share Posted April 25, 2018 I just ordered a set of Michelin Road5 sets as my stock tyres after 9000 km (1 season) are close to slick... Probably riding on the Nürburgring is not the best way to keep your tyres long-lasting 😁 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've put them at the top of my list for when I'm ready for new skins since they check all the boxes that are important to me. I look forward to hearing your opinion of the Road 5s. ✌️ DewMan Just shut up and ride. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Global Moderator mjh937 Posted April 25, 2018 Global Moderator Share Posted April 25, 2018 I have Road 5's on my bike. I am just waiting for my forks to arrive so I can ride with them. They look nice though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
208MT07 Posted May 2, 2018 Share Posted May 2, 2018 Since I'm coming up on my first service interval and would like an easier time cleaning my chain(and also just cleaning the rear wheel), I just placed an order for the rear spool adapters from TRex racing, and will be buying a rear stand soon.

squiernut Posted May 2, 2018 Share Posted May 2, 2018 (edited) I ordered this today. Yeah, it's from Aliexpress. I figured for $140, I'd take a chance. Honestly tho, I think it's the best looking one out there. Now, for the (likely) long wait for delivery...

Premium Member i28 Posted May 3, 2018 Premium Member Share Posted May 3, 2018 Had a good convo with Paul at Bellissimoto and ended up putting in an order for some Gilles rearsets for now. Got plenty of good ideas for my next few mods. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
