Title: New tire and Pre-Rally maintenance
Post by: aviationfred on September 11, 2019, 07:33:49 PM
Took the bike over to the garage so I could change the rear tire and do a bit of pre-rally maintenance. And I found this on the other lift. A brand spanking new 2020 Triumph Speed Twin.

Also, last night at the Cycle Gear bike night. I saw a Yamaha that I never new existed. 2013 Yamaha XJ6

Nothing like a fresh set of rubber Fred, good pics. I just took a short run to make sure things feel right. I mounted and balanced a set of fresh rubber and new fork seals two weeks ago. Just got all the bits back on, a short run and WOOOOUZA what s difference new tires make. Rally ready eh?

AH yes the xj6 ..the top yoke or triple tree from one of those fits onto the fj forks you only have to make up a spacer underneath it as it has a recess where as the fj yoke is flat , Ive got one my fj12 3xw for the few yrs with no complaints :)
