Re: Shoe rubs pavement in turn, how close are heads to pavement?

I have learned that my pegs scraped before anything else while I was at Deals Gap in May on my Rockster. Just dont point your feet outwards while on the pegs and you should be fine :D

Re: Help with colours / RAL numbers for Rockster

As long as you got the paint code....Sherwin Williams Automotive paint store should be able to match it. I searched for 3 months for the Citrus color and no one could do it. Went to S.W. and they had the paint code in there computer. Most expensive paint I have ever bought...$289 for a quart. Hopefu...

Do not lug the engine, it does not like it [-X . Keep the rpms between 3500-5000. Some have attributed many of the bikes problems to lugging the engine.

Re: So Long Fellers

Funny thing....at first Janyss said the Superduke was as comfortable as the Rockster. So we decided to ride it to Deals Gap in May. Well as some of you know, Janyss is a real trooper. But.....reality hit after about 350 miles or so. I think she really missed the backrest and the big pillion seat. Th...

So Long Fellers

You guys have all been great to me, and a wealth of information and laughs. Last years Bash was great, and I got to meet many awesome people. The time has come.....I sold the Rockster and picked up something else. I think it may be a pre-midlife crisis thing. Or maybe the whole clutch spline issue I...
