    Where did you ride your FTR today?

    I looked at a used Toce last week but the guy told me how loud it was and I decided to pass, even though I hate the stocker. I leave for work early and I don't want to be that guy.

    Greetings from Andorra

    Does the 100% have the aftermarket levers to match the rear-sets? I'd get those, the difference between the J.Juan and Brembo levers is irritating my OCD. And welcome, by the way!

    Watch out for the stock chain.

    This was a good read. Dude must be several chains in by now. If I was replacing the set every 5k I'd have re-evaluated my process.

    Do you have any other bikes?

    Perfect starter bikes. Me and my QA50 at BIR in '78.

    Limited Edition CCM Foggy Tracker

    I went to the CCM site and built a couple dreams. They are lovely, I wish other manufacturers did it this way. I'm thinking one of these would be the perfect retirement gift to myself in a couple years... :unsure:

    New RSD Wheels

    OK I'll say it. That is crazy money for a pair of rims. Maybe if they came with rotors and the tires of my choice.

    Get rid of cat and keep stock exhaust, or keep cat and change exhaust?

    "Too loud" is certainly subjective unless we we are referencing a noise ordinance.

    Ride command has water in it just some pictures

    This is interesting. For comparison: I also have a newer Africa Twin (Honda) and they have problems with the display going wonky too. Honda recently increased the warranty replacement to 10 years for '20+ AT's. I'm not saying Honda is better or always gets it right, but they got it right in this...

    Awful grinding from transmission when shifting into 2nd at high RPM

    I ordered the gixxer arm today, hoping that helps with the major 1-2 clunk I'm experiencing (even after a fresh oil change). I think 15w60 is the heaviest oil I've ever used! Speaking of oil, I used the Indian kit but will be looking at other stuff next change. Can someone link me an oil thread? :p

    IMO it never hurts to have the appropriate Service Manual for every vehicle you own.

    Get rid of cat and keep stock exhaust, or keep cat and change exhaust?

    Sounds great! Not totally rude in the scheme of things. Not what I'd (meaning my neighbors) want for my daily (leaving for work before 6am) bike though. :p

    FTR 17" wheel swap explained

    I've been greasing axles for 30 years to lubricate assembly and prevent corrosion. It seems to do the job so I'll likely continue to do so.
