    Triple Tree Bottom Diameter Modification

    Hi all: I hope you're all staying warm. I have a question for you: My Max is using 1994 Yamaha YZF750 USD forks with a beautiful custom-made triple tree. The triple trees have a 50mm top diameter clamp and a 56mm bottom diameter clamp. Someone has recently given me a set of 1998...

    Would you dare to 'pull the trigger?' Two stroke triple trike

    On this Kawasaki S2 trike? It looks pretty-dangerous to me. I had an H1 (500 triple two-stroke for you whippersnappers) that was adventurous-enough. This engine is the 'little brother' to the H1, but I'm sure that anyone who has the nerve to run this to redline, will have a ride like a worn-out...

    Norton-Kawi 750 triple two-stroke

    Yes, A reputed Norton Dominator frame ('57) housing the "Widowmaker" engine of the biggest Kawasaki two-stroke. What a combo! Sure to piss-off all the Anglophiles. Allegedly built 1980 in CA, the owner/builder died in a motorcycle accident before it could be finished. Purchased from the estate...

    Have front tire widened on my '03 or sell it and my Speed Triple for a 2nd gen?

    I've got an '03 with an 18x5.5" rear with a Bridgestone 180/55 sport-touring radial, and an almost-matching Bridgestone 110/80 front radial. While many will say that a 110/80 works fine on the stock 18x2.15 front wheel, the fact is that a 110/80 radial is designed for at least a 3" wheel and...

    Triple Headlight Charging Problem!

    Hello, I've recently replaced my front headlight with 3 smaller ones. From what I understand the stock bulb is a 50-60 WATT lamp, now there are 3 100 WATT lamps connected in parallel which in turn drains the battery in a few minutes. I'm trying to find a way to make the headlights work...
