I'm content not ordering my replacement OEM parts off Ebay and Aliexpress for at least another decade. Fitment guides are a complete **** show still too once it's a few years ago. Such little support.

Those Fowler digital dial bore gauges might be a great buy depending. 18% buyers fee is steep but those are quality. I was about to bid but I can't make it for their only pickup date.

The Multistrada is the king of the class. Hard not to like. :)

Durham HD is 5 minutes away from there, literally down the street, there was no chance of GP getting Harley in that proximity.

Scramblers hold little value, sad reality. It's an entry level Ducati with not so entry level maintenance. A scrambler and $2,000 desmo services doesn't quite lend itself to value retention.

Not true. Completely seperate owners/companies. Blackbridge HD went out of business and Apex got the brand, as Rockys HD in London closing at the same time left a big gap in the area as mentioned above. No association at all with Blackbridge/Rockys besides selling the same bikes.

They don't seem to care I've switched 10-15 times at least now. I think even they as agents aren't multi millionaires and understand people just want to save money as they do. As long as you haven't been cancelled for any reason, I doubt it will ever matter. They just want your business...

I shop my insurance around every single year and constantly switch. Loyalty is not worth it with how premiums change between companies. My insurance history is a complete **** show when they view it but it never makes a difference. You can saved hundreds to thousands a year (cars, bikes and a...

Well that isn't a part of a safety. Maybe if we still had e-test it would matter. Any bike with an aftermarket exhaust wouldn't pass either but that isn't the reality. Those bikes all pass fine even now.

Talking purely about the legitimate conversions. With all the street bits added that would actually pass a real safety on the paper.

Anyone have any experience with this since the digital safety switch? Are legitimately converted blue plate off road conversion VINs being accepted in the tablet safety process? Looking at a XR650R that has a current blue plate but questioning whether the VIN will be accepted even though it's...

Looks like we found ourselves the new Ted. Good stuff
