  1. So are you saying the TG 7317 will fit our RSV? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  2. Nice Truck!
  3. If I am not mistaken, I have close to 10K miles on my Rear Shinko 777. This tire is Made in Korea. I still have a lot of tread left.
  4. You will not be disappointed with the Shinko 777s. FWIW, someday...when I find my first SVTC, I hope Shinko will make the tire size for those beautiful bikes. If I am not mistaken, the SVTCs are equipped with Bridgestones. Yamaha does like to stick with the brand.

    My new hat

    I really need a nice hat. It is starting to get cold in the am this time of the year. [emoji847] Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  6. Yes it is. I was a little skeptical on the 777, until I’ve read of other riders that has the 777. These tires are great. I highly recommend on the RSV. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  7. Fall temps is finally here in our area. After today and tomorrow’s rain, we will have low 50’s in the morning. To me that is just perfect Fall riding temperature. As you have mentioned, 37° with or without Sun is just fine as long as there is no wind chill factor. Anything over 10 mph of wind in our area below 40° is a ‘No Ride’ for me.

  8. Very nice looking trike. Love the color.
  9. Chillin on this end. Rainy Sunday. Planning to put more miles on my ‘07 until I find my future ride - 2018 TC. [emoji1783] Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  10. Replaced my front tire, but did not go for a ride [emoji3064]. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  11. I went to have my front tire mounted this afternoon and had the chance to sit on a 2018 Venture. It is true... the seat is indeed lower than my 07 RSV. The seat is not as soft as my RSV, but I think my sitting position on the ‘18 is similar to my ‘07. I loved everything I saw on the bike. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  12. What if you bleed your front brakes and replace with fresh fluid(?). Just a thought. [emoji362][emoji1008] Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  13. I like the sounds of 1.75 or the 2 baffles. I will definitely not put Zombies on my bike. Way too loud for me.

  15. Hello Rafterd. I 2nd that. These tires really do hug the road. I already have 10k miles on my rear and looks like I can put another 5K to 7K. ... to see.
  16. Took 15 minutes to take off the wheel. Took it to the shop to mount new tire then reinstalled. Got close to 17K on the Bridgestones. Rear already has the 777 and I am satisfied. Ride Safe. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  17. Have fun on your project, made2care. If it is true what people say about this coming winter, I'd definitely spend more time in the garage and get it done before the next riding season starts.
  18. I left the bike at home simply because I woke up late. Took the van instead that has not been used for a few days. These nice rain free days has to continue. Ride safe.
  19. Skydoc_17, this makes a lot of sense. [emoji851]
  20. Very Nice quality tool. Because of this post, this reminds me to synchronize my carbs. [emoji848]
  21. 73 de N3FOL Too!
  22. So for the last 2 weeks, I have been looking very hard for a RSTC but have not really found the best priced TC out there. Sales people are willing to help, but at the end of the day the 'Out The Door' price is almost close to the full price of the bike. Now I have decided that I will stop shopping online and let mother Winter set in and wait for the year '2020'. They say it is best to shop for bikes in the winter to get the best price, but that remains to be seen. My '07 RSV has still a lot of life left on her. She only has 58K miles and running great and I couldn't be happier. For now, I will simply sit back and relax and enjoy reading more about the Pros and Cons of the TC. Ride Safe everyone.
  23. I am thinking the bike just needs a little TLC during its break-in period. FWIW, I've noticed some hard shifting on my Gen II RSV on some days but not all. (I know, the RSV and the TC and completely different bikes) However, this can also be an indication that my RSV will need an oil change soon.
  24. Glad you are back once again. Ride forever.
  25. I guess we can also ask, 'When is it safe to ride'? I may ride with temps down to 20°F as long as frost is not on the ground. Day time riding at 20°F with lots of Sun is perfect. Night time riding at 20°F can be tricky. If I know that it will be dark by the time I get home, I usually take my van to be safe.
