What failled didn't stop the machine from running, has you can tell..to me its all minor stuff when the machine is still capable of running.... sounds like general wear and tear after 40km of use .... warranty company should tell you to fuck right off 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pedro Posted September 17, 2025 Share Posted September 17, 2025 My Touratech shocks exhibit signs of wear where there should be once opened for service, at 70.000km, I'm quite disappointed with this. I won't put them back on the bike, since they're now with fresh seals and oil I'll either sell them or contact Touratech if I can find an invoice from 5 years ago. Picking my new shocks tomorrow. They're golden and Swedish. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She was so scared to be by herself I came along for company. Good man Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He came back in and said why can't HD make an engine like that. Ive ridden loads of HD's but that is only the second FTR - I can't understand why anyone would buy a HD when Indian makes something like that. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buckster Posted September 18, 2025 Share Posted September 18, 2025 Heading south today, probably won't get to GA until tomorrow as I want to call in a couple of places on the way down. May take in the historic Indian battle site of Wounded Headstock. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Catteeclan Posted September 19, 2025 Share Posted September 19, 2025 I've done a ton of nothing today. Although getting Mandi a crusty cob loaf from Tescos was a little something. Nice walk, suns out today so thought I'd make the most of it. Tomorrows forecast suggests we'll be doing bugga all tomorrow too. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
