    They're very solidly mounted and there's no blurring at all but then the big twin is a very smooth unit. Now if they were on a Harley....Oooooer!:joy:

    I bought this cool cat seat for my bobber from Alex Leather Craft:

    I am hoping that this will finally be the seat which makes riding the thing tolerable! (said while shaking fist through air)

    I bought this ring tyre pump and extra extension pipe. Seems to work well.

    I hope this works well for you, @Wessa. I bought one of these (though a different brand) and pretty much use if exclusively now for checking and airing up both my motorcycle and my car tires. It is so handy and also so portable!

    I upgraded to a "Stage 2" on my 2024 Street Glide a couple of weeks ago: new H-D Screamin' Eagle air cleaner, cam, and tuner, and an S & S full exhaust system. I've put several hundred miles on the bike since then and am very happy with the changes. :)

    Once again it was time to change to new tyres. Yesterday I did a "cool" 400 km tour to get them after work. Temperatures in the morning -1 degree celsius and about 10 in the late afternoon. I switched again to Continental Road Attack 4, my beloved tyres. The old one, Michelin Road 5 lastet really good until 8.000 km. After that they lost their performance from kilometer to kilometer. Therefore I changed them now at 8.800 km. They would have lasted even more, but I didn't feel comfortable and save while riding my bike.
    To dismantle the rear one my mechanic had to take off the pipe too.
    Now I am really happy! ☺️

    I have a Lexin P4. Very similar and a really good thing to have around/in a pannier.

    That's a neat looking unit powered by it's own battery I presume? I have a pump that's a bit bigger than that which connects to the car/bike battery and I always take it with me when out on the ZZR along with a tyre plug kit. The new 1200 Scrambler has tubeless tyres as opposed to the tubes on the Street Scrambler so it'll be worth carrying the plug kit and a pump. I've changed a tube on a dirt bike before roadside (on open moorland actually:joy:) but doing the same on a 200+kg road bike isn't really an option and recovery is required.

    Yes, rechargeable battery. The extension pipe makes attaching to the valve a doddle. :)

    Bought it an italian friend. Not that i needed another bike but this was just too beautiful to pass. Ducati Monster 1100 EVO, the last of the big aircooled Monsters.

    That's lovely :heart_eyes:. I am not a fan of the new Monsters looks - wise as for me the big trellis frame "makes" the older Monsters, Monsters!!
