JayMT07 Posted September 13, 2018 Share Posted September 13, 2018 (edited) Installed the smoked TST integrated tail light on my 2018. I'm quite pleased with the brightness and various settings. Pics were taken with the sun directly behind the bike with no overcast. Edited September 13, 2018 by JayMT07 2 Instagram: @jayparrington Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JayMT07 Posted September 16, 2018 Share Posted September 16, 2018 Great news on the TST smoked integrated tail light. My wife and I just came back from a little day ride and she said both the brake light and turn signals were very noticeable. I was happy to hear this after the TST flush mount pods weren't noticeable during daylight hours. 1 Instagram: @jayparrington Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

phanomenal07 Posted September 19, 2018 Share Posted September 19, 2018 I installed the spiegler brake lines today. They look fantastic. Performance wise I feel little to no difference with the rear brake. However the front brake feels drastically different. Much better feeling. also I took the triple tree clamp and handle bar off to finally get to the bottom of my steering damper problem from the dealership. Turns out they never seated the collar of the steering damper all the way down to the backbone of the frame so it was pretty much just floating around the dust cover and steering stem nut. Now the steering damper finally feel normal again so I believe I corrected everything that the dealer messed up. FINALLY!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did you get the original set up or the alt set up with 2 long front lines? Glad to hear the front feels better.

shinyribs Posted September 20, 2018 Share Posted September 20, 2018 I had to tighten my rear engine bolts. The bike had started making a fairly loud click upon takeoff. I double checked everything regarding the chain ( ...again), but all was well. Popped the rear wheel off while the bike was up and checked the wheel bearings - no problems there. Cleaned out the cush drive while the wheel was off and found a HUGE amount of grit inside! Kinda stinks that this cush drive isn't sealed to the hub with an o-ring like all my other bikes. I figured the grit crunching around must have been the sound, but a test ride proved otherwise. So back up on the lift for a look and I find the rear engine bolts are loose. Not like finger-tight, about to fall out loose, but I tightened each of them over 1 full turn. Creaking/clicking sound is gone now. The sound was the engine moving around in the frame....spooky. Check yer bolts! 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

5tonfan Posted September 23, 2018 Share Posted September 23, 2018 Was going to try and repack my M4 exhaust, and after fighting with the rivets. I cracked the tip while trying to separate the cannister. Think I'm going to just put some rivets back in and order parts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

3crows Posted September 24, 2018 Share Posted September 24, 2018 (edited) Well, I was at the Y doing my mile swim, had ridden my bicycle there, about a 25 mile round trip. Ran into my wife's boss who has several motorcycles and trades through them regularly. He mentioned he had wished he knew I wanted another motorcycle because he was thinking to sell his 15 Street Triple R. So, basically, what I did to my MT-07 today is buy it a garage buddy: It has just over 3,000 miles and a few quality mods. Treated gently. Yeah, yeah, the newest Street Triple R has more engine, look at it this way, it has 109 horsepower and 50 pound feet of torque and is fully capable of blistering acceleration the MT-07 could only dream of. I plan to keep both. I got a good price on it and paid cash so I will enjoy it for a while and then pass it on to a deserving fellow. The MT-07, I think is a keeper, well, both of them may be.
