    Spring strength in Trail front suspension

    I was looking at the RacingBros Front Fork Anti Dive System on Steady Garage. I’m currently using the Chimera fork caps to increase preload, but wouldn’t mind a better response in the front suspension. The system offers different spring strengths described as 6.5nmm and 7.5nmm. Any thoughts on...

    K&H saddle for CT125

    It took a few months to be made by K&H after ordering from WeBike Japan, but the seat finally arrived. The seat is described as 20mm taller than stock. It appears about 1” taller at the nose, about 1/2” taller in the center. The shape is narrower, so standing over it is even easier than with the...

    Honda air filter

    When I ordered an exhaust gasket from Revzilla, I thought I would add an air filter since I was already paying $8 shipping on a $4 part. The filter cost $8 and change and was in stock. Shipping was fast. I ride a lot of dusty dirt roads, and for the small amount of money, I’ll probably rotate...

    Moriwaki skid plate

    Since I was putting on a new exhaust, I thought I would change out the stamped metal stock skid plate for the Moriwaki. I like the look, I like the stylized kanji characters on the logo plate, and I really like how much room it gives for the exhaust pipe. I can’t imagine any aftermarket exhaust...

    Yoshimura Machine Song GP-Magnum

Several people reported not expecting any performance improvement, but I was still hopeful when I saw Yoshimura’s dyno chart. So once I got my...

    Motorcycle Safety Foundation Advanced Rider Course

    Yesterday I attended the MSF Advanced Rider Course on my CT125. We had only five riders with two instructors on a hot and sunny day. Much to everyone’s surprise, the CT held its own on the short course with speeds never exceeding 25-30. This is a new class in Vermont and has gotten very low...

    First sighting of a Trail other than mine!

    On Sunday July 10, I was heading toward Lake Placid, NY when I saw a Trail 125 loaded in the back of a pickup heading past Cascade Lake toward Keene. I was heading out for some mountain biking but wondered where this CT owner had been riding in the ‘dacks.

    What will upgraded rear shocks do for the Trail?

    I have only had stock shocks on motorcycles. Recently I took a hard hit on the Trail where a culvert crossed a road and the pavement had settled. I was really surprised at how jarring it was on my back. I don’t know that the shocks bottomed out, and I only weigh about 140. My understanding is...
