Couldn't imagine not using engine braking when riding the twisties. I regularly manually downshift.
Same here, with a Touratech locking mount and RAM locking knob.

They're done nicely..
These are a bit thinner than Grip puppies/Grab On covers. Heat comes through fairly decently.

Such a big PIA to replace on the 2020+ RT's :(
FWIW, Jacob at Lamonster recommended replacing their beefier roller every 15K miles.
Gonna give this Chemical Guys product a try. I like the fact that it has UV protectors in it.....
The guy I talked to was Harry. He said the m/c formula is a touch less viscous than the auto formula. I did have the auto formula in my front tires at one time, and they would not smoothen out. That...

I've been using Ride-On sealant in my m/c tires for years. I had a nice talk with a Ride-On technician about which formula to use in my Spyder tires. He was very specific about these two points:

No clearance issues on my 2019 F3S. I have not tried the Vredestein's (currently on my F3S wheels) on my 2022 RT since I shimmed the fenders. I was happy enough with the tire improvement of the...
A couple seasons ago, I bought a set of Achilles ATR-K Economist 165/55R15 tires to try on my F3S. They were a nice improvement over the OEM Kenda's. I then bit on Vredestein reviews and bought a set...
I recently tried an Ultimate Touring Seat on my 2022 RT S2S. I bought it as a used demo direct from Ultimate. The fitment wasn't very good, and pictures sent to Ultimate verified this. They had...
I have a 2022 RT STS with only 900 miles on it. So far, averaging only in low/mid 30's mpg 100% solo. Expecting (hoping) it goes up as mileage increases and engine meshes..
I have both MTV H&R front springs and the BR Ultra sway bar installed on my 2022 RT STS. The front end definitely has a much more planted feeling. Crosswinds don't push you as much.
Nope .. The Ultra bar will slide in easily from the side or through wheel spokes.
Did you notice this post is over 4 years old?
My Goodyear Ultra grip M&S tire (215/60R15) has been on the back of my F3S for about 10K miles, and it has been stellar. Can't find them anymore though:(
The most common front tire here are the Vredestein's. They're an all season tire but have winter snow flake rating. They'll easily last 25K+ miles on the Spyder.
Just read this note on the FB forum. Best wishes to Lamont and his family.
PLEASE show our beloved Lamonster your love and support with a card. He is hospitalized with staph infection and liver...
I like the looks of the tubular bar. Haven't yet taken the Spyder out since yesterday's install. I expect good things, just as I had on my F3S.
Installed a Baja Ron Ultra sway bar and Spyder Extras tubular front bumper.
Also took some time to install a SE tubular front bumper. Really tight spaces to get the nylock nuts started, but backing tape on the wrench helped. Next up will be the cat delete, but really need to...
Well.. I did it. Took about 1.45 hours, giving a few breaks to some pesky vertigo. Smooth install. Used clovercrawler method with ramps. It was just slightly wobbly fully raised, but NO way I would...
Well .... You know what I did :)
I have a local trike builder who mounts my rear tire. That said, take it to any other motorcycle shop. They should be able to do it.
Personally, I think it's too close to the sidewall to effectively patch or plug. The tire will likely flex a bit too much in that location. As others stated, leave it as is.
"I did get a tire and wheel warranty, so I’ll be dealing with trying to make a claim, too. Such a headache!"
Advice is welcome.
If you got the tire/wheel warranty thru your dealer, you're...
Yes, I have one on my 2019 F3S. Bought it from Fuel Moto as they're only 90 miles up the road. Sent them multiple data logs and they tweaked my map. Byke runs great.
