    Request: Best Rain Gear

    I've used the Frogg Toggs Road Toad set. I've gone through two pairs of pants and each lasted me two seasons or so. The same jacket lasted through both pairs of pants.

    Bike not shutting off with key or kill switch

    Always listen to Frekeyguy, he knows what he's talking about. I agree with others that it's the relay. The relay has failed closed and while the bike is running, you can't tell that your starter motor is still on, but it is, and it will burn out if you leave it this way. Replace it with a...

    Bike not shutting off with key or kill switch

    You said you measured full battery voltage between the negative battery terminal and the frame. This sounds like your battery is shorted directly to the frame but that doesn't explain your other symptoms. Verify this by disconnecting the positive battery terminal from the electrical harness and...

    Ducati Reliability

    I have a 2015 Multistrada DVT. The worse thing that's happened was a blown fork seal on the "mechanical" side at around 8k. A month ago, my wife and I finished a ride out to Newfoundland and back. Rode two-up with camping gear. That trip was 6500 kms and I now have 20k on the bike in the 1 year...

    Tube bending and welding

    Thanks for the help everyone! A couple of these places look really promising. I'm toying with the idea of building custom crash bars or crash cage of some sort. Probably no larger than 1.25" tube, so not pipe or exhaust work.

    Tube bending and welding

    Hello folks. I'm contemplating a couple of projects but I have neither the knowledge nor the tools to bend tube and cut/weld it. Does anyone on the forum rent out their services or do you know anyone who does?

    Which direction should I go?

    Also, there are lots of great roads in Pennsylvania and it's only 4 hours away. I was there for a weekend a few weeks back and the roads were great, scenery fantastic.

    Which direction should I go?

    There's a lot of borning between here and the Rockies! I'd suggest Nova Scotia and Cape Breton or the ride around Lake Superior. I'm heading to NS and NFLD on the bike in the summer and I'll probably do the Lake Superior loop next summer. I went to Cape Breton in the car a few years ago and...

    Garmin Zumo PAIN!

    I'm also concerned about which mount you used. I used the motorcycle mount that came with my GPS and I rely on it being safe and secure to hold the GPS in place. I've got a Zumo 390LM and the cradle feels solid to me.

    Moto gymkhana gta

    May I ask a few more questions? a) Do you get permission to use the parking lot by the property owner? b) Is the parking lot closed to public access when practicing? c) Have you ever caught the police's attention and do you think there is any risk of being charged with stunting?

    Moto gymkhana gta

    A parking lot is private property but with assumed public access. I would think that you could be charged with not having insurance if you're caught even riding in a parking lot. I could be wrong though. Maybe you should ask this question of some of our more insurance-savvy members on GTAM.

    Tires for FJR

    The new Metzeler Roadtec 01 seems to be the new king of the sport touring segment. I've read really good reviews so far but nothing that directly compares them to the PR4.

    Uh-oh for MV Agusta

    I thought that the influx of cash from Mercedes was supposed to help MV Augusta with their financial problems.
