I suspect the side stand switch. It has a much higher fatality rate than the
clutch switch.
Hmmm, about 60% more claimed horsepower, about the same
weight, I am in shock.
Any one else on this list from Atlanta?

BT020's replace the BT54s which are higher mileage tires. BT56s are even
softer than BT57s.

Good to hear from you again. I thought you were moving here. I'm

I put the large factory Krausers on with a Givi rack already installed. The

I bought a pair of Givi E-21. They are 21 liters a pair, about 7 or 8 inches

Hi Jay,
Heli's should be really simple for the GTS especially compared to say an

you'll probably want to be trying it out as soon as your done. I had

Jay,
Why the Krausers and not two more 50L Givi's? (Then
you could carry the Goldwing with you!) Are the
Krausers thinner than the GIVI's? Just curious, I

Yes, some are quite different.
Actually, the main reason I got the Helibars was to motivate me to insert new
grips with heaters underneath. I'm not enthralled with the stock grips anyway.
And I don't even wanna know what grips others use. I'll pick something I
like. That's a really subjective topic.
