    Air leak at a spoke

    Not long ago I picked up a brand new NTX rear rim with tire but have not needed to install it until now. When I pulled the wheel and tire out this morning it was basically flat so I pumped it up to 42 psi. About 6 hours later I checked and it was down to 25 psi. A bit of soapy water showed...

    Almost Heaven...on a V7

    This past weekend I explored the twists and turns in Pocahontas County, West Virginia. My 2013 V7 Special just had her 600 mile service so this trip was a break-in for the bike and a chance to really get to know how I will relate after so many years on 100 hp machines. To make life easy we...

    Extra fuel for a NTX?

    Leafman60, please post a photo of your latest addition...extra fuel for your NTX. I guess you are setting the bike up as an in-flight refueling station or similar, since 8.5 gallons of go juice was not enough! Peter Y.

    Storage Wars...Stelvio NTX tool box

    Although the NTX has hard bags and thus lots of storage room I thought it would be nice to have a dedicated storage box for tools and other dirty/greasy stuff. The PVC tubes are one popular idea but, having too much time on my hands, lots of scrap aluminum, and a TIG welder....

    Engine mount torque...'12 NTX

    I have the tank off and wanted to check the upper engine mounts after reading about others who had these bolts fall out. If I read the specs correctly the torque is 80NM. Mine were well shy of that but not totally loose. 80 seems like a lot for these bolts (use a 6mm allen) so before I strip...

    Upgrade to NTX starter circuit

    Every modern motorcycle I have owned came with wiring that was too small, particularly the connection from battery to ground and battery to starter. Upgrading these two wires helps the starter spin the engine faster, leading to quicker starts. In addition, the Stelvio ground connection is a...

    Swingarm Axle Nut

    A winter project will be pull the swingarm on my '12 NTX and grease it, along with all the other rear suspension points. I recall a listing for a socket to fit the castle nut on the swingarm axle bolt but can't find the source. Any recommendations? I'd rather not have to make a special tool...

    Norge O2 Sensor

    My '07 Norge has about 18K miles. I'm the third owner but basically the bike is stock. Last fall I installed an O2 Emulator to cure a very slight case of popping on decel. Last weekend I took my first really long ride and, over 4 tanks of gas, saw that I was only getting about 30 mpg. After...
