Rats! I bought a 128 link chain too, based on a recommendation here. Looks like I'll count links before I cut, but I have the same bike as PNW so I too will probably need one with 130 links. I'll...

I just bought one of the unibear chains you guys are recommending too. For $20.00 I'd rather place a new one on, based on all the good reviews. As are some of the mechanical things on this bike,...

Last September I lost it and my $100.00 Bell full face saved my face and maybe my life. The chin bar was broken thru, the forehead area was cracked and the shield was in two pieces. If not for that...

If this bike is going to mainly be a commuter, running on pavement 80% of the time or more, I would get tires that are more oriented for the street. I think that would be safer.

Gerry at CSC told me to use an oil that states it's for use in motorcycles because other oils have more detergents in them that don't do the wet clutch any good. He suggested I use a 20-50 and I too...

I think weight has a lot to do with the top speed of the TT. One fellow who weighs less than 150 lbs reported 80 + mph. And, maybe they break-in at different rates. Now I have about 500 kilos on and...

I was in full tuck too and I don't have GPS so I'm depending on the speedo for accuracy. The TT250 speedo will give us MPH but counts in kilometers; the odo is counting up kilometers not miles. This...

I would trust the dip stick and the site glass. 1.3 qt is recommended for the TT250. I've only changed my oil once and with the bike standing up 1.3 qt is perfect in the glass. I'm sure 1.6 qt is too...

further photo analysis

Looks like there are 3 2x4 cross members on the bottom of the pallet. The right one is obscured by the strapping. The left one is broken. These were placed next to the slots, possibly for two...
