    Bought a 2009 Triumph Bonneville..

    I'm hoping anyone with experience with these bikes can give me some insight - Looking to get new pipes and a K&N right away, just not sure what pipes. I'm thinking the arrow 2-1 - any other suggestions? Also, does anyone know if the Billy Bar highway pegs from New Bonneville will fit with the...

    Triumph Bonneville - Where to not get ripped off?

    Hey guys, I'm selling my 2004 Kawasaki z750 which I pay $1700/yr on. I was just quoted $2000/yr for an 09 Bonneville. Yeah, bigger engine I get it, but are there any companies in existence that understand I shouldn't be paying more for a bike with significantly less power? I'm still under 25...

    Finally got a truck...

    And I've been wanting to try out a track day or at least for now take my bike out to the drag strip for something different to do. I know you need full leathers but I don't want to blow too much cash on a high end suit as this will probably only be a once in a while thing for me. I have a good...

    Arai Vector2 feedback please

    Assuming its the same or similar to the original Vector (I could be wrong though) I highly recommend it. Been riding with my Vector for 4 seasons now and will probably buy another one next season or the following season. The only thing I have to compare it to is an older Shark RSF2 model and a...

    Heated Gear (Non Gerbings)

    Forget about Gears. Junk. I had one that lasted a while and stopped working shortly after. The following season I was desperate for another heated vest so I picked up another one (stupid move) and it ended up being recalled less than a month later.

    Thinking about dirt for next year..

    I think I'm going to rent a bike, probably my best option. Having said that, any recommendations on where to do this?

    Thinking about dirt for next year..

    So I'm just wrapping up my 6th season riding street and have been thinking about adding a dirt bike to the lineup. I've never done any proper offroading other than a few interesting scenarios on my street bike. I want to do this as cheap as possible and maybe start riding trails to see if I like...

    Any Bonneville riders with performance mods?

    Now 260km on a tank sounds about right! Looks like I'll still be saving for a Bonne haha, I had way too much fun riding that thing. Nice looking bikes by the way, I love Triumph. Mcduf: How do you find the Arrow pipes compare to stock?

    ZRX1200, B-King, Z1000, etc...New (to me) bike time..

    I ride a 2004 z750 and like it so much I may even go for a z1000 when I'm ready to get a new bike. Reliable as hell and easy to maintain. I highly suggest a corbin seat though, and I put bar risers on for $100 that make it rideable all day.

    Ford Ranger for motorcycle transport?

    Thanks for all the responses, assuming I'm approved for financing I have myself a brand new truck as of next week!

    Ford Ranger for motorcycle transport?

    Thanks for the responses. Whatever I end up buying will be my daily driver and I just can't see that being a mini van. I've never even done a track day, just something I've wanted to do for a while. One question about the ramps though: Can you ride the bike right on to the truck or do you need...

    Ford Ranger for motorcycle transport?

    With the ridiculously cheap prices Ford is giving the ranger away for I'm thinking of grabbing one soon. Does anyone have any experience with transporting motorcycles in a ranger? I know it's doable, just looking for some insight (for example, the best ramp to use and where to get it/how much)...

    Any Bonneville riders with performance mods?

    These mileages to a tank are interesting.. the guy at the dealer told me I could be getting 250-300k on a tank. Seems impossible based on the numbers I'm seeing here, am I missing something or was he just really trying to sell me the bike?

    Any Bonneville riders with performance mods?

    So I took a new Bonneville SE out for a spin yesterday and really liked it, coming off a z750 though it obviously felt a little underpowered. I'm on the verge of just going for it anyways, crazy fun to ride but I'd feel better knowing of any decent performance mods that won't kill its fuel...

    Is 30,000km on a sport bike too high?

    I got my bike (2004 Kawasaki z750) about 4 years ago with just over 30k. It's got about 93k now - basic maintenance and running strong. I'm confident this thing will go WELL over 100k, maybe this year even. I took a risk getting a "high mileage" bike so I could afford something better and newer...
