    Grabbed this picture during a quick stop on my way home

    I'm in Ulster County NY. I'm running Shinko 244's 2.50 front and 3.00 rear. I'm pretty sure you can go up to a 2.75 front without moving the front fender up. I'm happy with what I chose. The only problem I've seen so far is because I upped the size of the tires, the kick stand makes the bike...

    I appreciate that. I believe it was the MotoSkill side rack with the Rotopax mount and 1 gallon tank. The pre-existing holes on the rack do line up with the Rotopax mount but the tank didn't sit where I wanted it to on the bike horizontal. I ended up using 2 predrilled holes to get the mount...

    Biggest load hauled?

    Had some time to play around in the shop today. Tried a few different thickness of scrap wood laying around to see what I could come up with. Turns out 3/4" was the magic number to get the bike back up where it should be with the kick stand down. I had a piece of unistrut laying around which...

    Biggest load hauled?

    Right I get what you're saying, but the only weight on the side is 1 gallon of gas. That's 6 lbs plus probably 3 lbs probably for the rotopax and bracket. I'm not sure 9 lbs should be enough to be the problem. I'm most certain that the angle of the bike with the kick stand is my problem at the...

    Biggest load hauled?

    A gallon of gas and an empty aluminum box? I thought that the cargo rack was rated for 50lbs or something.

    Biggest load hauled?

    Ah I was only thinking about weight and totally forgot about the height of the tires! Good catch. I had the dealer throw them on before I bought the bike so I didn't even give it a thought lol. I'll add something to the bottom to raise it up a bit and see how that fairs. Thank you for the response!

    Biggest load hauled?

    On this topic, my bike is definitely heavy on the kick stand side with my givi box and 1 gallon fuel tank. It's perfectly stable on the center stand but in some cases it wants to tip over on the kick stand. What have you guys done to combat that? I didn't really like the idea of a second stand...

    Looking for barkbusters but striking out

    Very informative response, thank you very much. You answered the only other question I had which was about the hippo hands which I was already eyeing up as well for the future. Again, I really appreciate this. I'll be ordering tonight.

    Looking for barkbusters but striking out

    I got pretty lucky with mine. My wife and I were going to wait until next year to start looking but a dealership down the road got one in stock a couple of weeks ago and with no 2024 announcement for a release yet and not sure what color choices we'll get, we ended up just grabbing what the...

    Looking for barkbusters but striking out

    Thank you! The weather has been great so I took advantage of bolting some goodies on the bike. It's going to come with us on camping trips this year and hop around some coastal towns. I think it's a great platform for sparking conversation with people.

    Looking for barkbusters but striking out

    Trying to find a good link for barkbusters mounting kit which I believe to be BHG-112. Looking for the 2 point mount. If anyone has any idea where to currently find a set I'd appreciate it. I'm in the US if that matters. Thanks guys. And here's my new trail that I picked up last week.

    Got this bike a week ago. Thrilled with it. Most of the accessories came from beezdeals. I'm located in NY and was able to get a Christmas Eve ride in yesterday.

    License plate ideas

    Thanks for that. I was hoping for postie but can't make it happen without the "ee" or the "1E". The other ideas are helpful. I'm going to play around with some of those options and see what I can come up with.

    License plate ideas

    First time posting here. I pick up a 2023 Trail on Saturday and wanted to have it registered with custom plates. These were the only ideas I could come up with that were available. I actually originally wanted it to be BOOGER but it wasn't available lol. If there are any other creative ideas let...
