What Have You Being Doing With Your Non-triumph Today?

Most guys in NZ use the EZ Rider systems from North Carolina. They have touring system with 5” adjustments, but it is the 3” lowering that they all want to slam it on the ground at stop.
Would be great if a bike was too tall for you @Sandi T.

 

Thanks, @Dartplayer! I'll bet that this is the system I've seen on lots of the baggers on display at the Laughlin River Run over the years. Seems very cool. Fortunately for me, I'm tall enough at 5'7" that most bikes aren't toot all for me. Most of the ones that are are ADV bikes and I've no interest (yet anyway!) in those.

 

Beautiful sunset photo, @Yorkshireman. Looks like those we often get in the desert here in Arizona!

 

OK Ade the verdict is ??

 

I bet that goes well. What did you think Ade? I’ve heard the 1250 is a beast of a motor.

 

I’m not sure I would make use of the 1250’s extra push above the 1200, I can get to silly speeds in the (very usable) midrange on my pump without trying too hard.

 

Thanks Ade for the report.

I had a look at one at the NEC bike show and it looked nice.

Who knows a test ride may be happening

 

It's worth a test ride then ?
Just had a load of farkles for the GS for Crimbo so I wont be getting rid of it anytime soon. Besides,I've just sorted the suspension out.
Thought it was a bit high,I'd go it in max instead of min

 

I have noticed that when cruising at 70 which is 4000rpm it does hesitate, the dreaded emissions flat spot no doubt. I’d kind of didn’t want to have to Hilltop it but I can see myself making an appointment in the new year.

 

I dunno

It says Max or Min, Dynamic or Road.
It's an 18 plate so I suppose it's the latest.

 

I’ve changed the damping and can feel the difference between road and dynamic, road feeling a bit floaty if I’m honest, but I’ve not felt the spring preload change even tho I’ve toggled through the settings. I read the manual and if I’m correct it alters the preload only when the bike sets off? Can you actually feel or see it change? I’ll have another play next time out, they salted the roads last night or I’d have been out again today.

 

Took my kwak out for an end of year and decade ride.

 

@Tez did you get the starting problem with the Harley sorted?

 

@Dozers Dad & @Sprinter

Thanks Jez
Yes James all sorted good while ago mate (multi plug hidden in headstock full of water some lazy git stuffed rubber grommet in aswell instead of using it to seal opening between frame. )
Since then sorted this


NOW -


Harley not for me although physically looked smaller felt very heavy to ride and steer, so went back

 

Yes I do. Ta.

 

So are you happy with this new one? Looks fantastic to me from here.When did this happen, did I miss the thread?
