i always ride so slow 1.............

 

haiz u don think i m wat riding a plane ah

Seems like some fast riders in this group..

 

Anyway, I think I should be doing alot of touring road trip. Any recommended windscreen? Or, will it be fine if I just get the adjustable windscreen fixture from wasp or touratech?

 

For riser, I know that rox riser is good and high adjustable, but I doubt I dont need to adjust it further after I get the sweetspot. So, maybe just get a riser bar will do?

 

I'm around 1.74m btw if it matters.

[BottleCap]

if you do alot of touring like what some of us do... you defintely need to find the sweet spot. i m using the wunderlich bar riser which is 25mm..... windshield adjuster would be sufficient already imo. i went at 240 on stock windshield last sunday. no head shake and i m 1.85 meter tall

We are kidding ourself that the 1200cc P.twin is a sessy.fast or slow is subjective.I term it as comfort speed.lol

 

Windscreen? It depends on what type helmet u intent to wear.I had a motard style & head shake at >140. only shoe FF & open face helmet got no such issue with stock screen.

 

I had touratech adjuster but still don't solve it till the puig & touratech combo.hope it helps.

 

Handle bar position - stock height is good for stand-up riding but low for sit down tour mode.I had a SW motech riser 25mm to improve the egonomic.

 

To each it own.S10 has too many goodies Out there to squeeze your wallet.haha

[BottleCap]

for me personally the riser is a gd investment. makes my back feel so much better. hahahaha...........

After searching around.I can conclude that touratech,SW Motech & Hepco Becker bar riser all looks very similar.almost like mfg by wunderlich.haha

 

Except for ROX riser which also looks like SW Motech vortex riser.

 

Oh....ROX riser is not made by ALTrider.

[whyzee]

When u mean riser, I assume you mean the spacer riser, instead of a steeper angle riser bar right? If I could, I would try to keep the original handlebars actually.

 

I think I will try with just a aftermarket windscreen adjuster, before determining if I need a taller windshield.

 

Also, I have a brembo RCS 16 clutch lever, and RCS 19x20 brake lever. U guys think it will work with the ABS and LBS?

 

n yes, I do try to ride north as much as I can.But I dont really like to travel on NSH..

Seems Common on this eat EO matters on most twins & including S10.

 

I reckon the engine is hot hence the burning.the more needed for good quality EO during oil change.

Do ensure to check slip-on packing material periodly if u often full bore.packing tend to burn when prolong full bore.
