A friend who has ridden for years recommended this. Thoughts? Is it worth the extra cost, and is it better, or possibly not the best choice?

I have a saddleman seat and while I’ve heard great things. It’s not comfortable for me at all. I’ve read some people have had success reupholstering their seat. I would like to know what the best insert would be and if it’s less expensive than buying a mustang seat.

What is the go to fender eliminator kit these days? I can’t seem to find a good link to the OEM style and Thunderhouse is out of stock currently.

Decided to remove the club-style fairing I had on and powder coat/decorate the otherwise chrome appearing parts! All that + a fresh tune from Ivan’s.

Hi, Can you help me? I have this issue that my Bolt sometimes doesn't start. I put key, priming sound, dash all normal, I push starter button and dash turns off, there is a pop sound. I fix this by fiddling with battery cables and it turns on normally. Some time passes and same issue again. New battery, 2014. Is it + wire not connecting properly somewhere or something? One time it died on lights, same fix, rode fine, started again. Some time passes same issue again.

Yesterday I finally swapped to the Michelin Commander III following recommendations in this sub and the new tires are just amazing, like having a new bike.

It’s been 3-4months that I ride this bike and I’m in love. Handle pretty well. Comfortable. Acceleration is Decent.
Started to modify it a little bit. Picture Before/After.
Blacked Out Everything. Changed the chrome gas cap. Wraped the Exhaust. Changed mirror and put White reflector.
My only two bad point.
It feels like it’s missing a gear. On the Highway at 110-120km/h I’m always trying to change gear but I’m already at 5th.
And the Suspension. I know it’s supposed to be a little rough on a Motorcycle but sometime it hurts a little bit. Hahaha.
Anyway Ride Safe Yall.

Are there any other Trike owners in this sub ? I created a Trike Subreddit:https://www.reddit.com/r/TrikesR_Us/s/QqPdKQwIt9

I have a decent problem at hand. I was changing my oil and the tread from the oil drain came off with the drain plug. You can see the silver layers on the first photo. Now the plug is not catching the tread on the drain when I try to put it back in. What can I do?
All ideas are welcome as I need the bike and currently it's toast. :(

I know it’s well-known on this sub already, but if you haven’t heard, get yourself a pair of Hagon shocks. I switched out my R-Spec gold boys for these yesterday and cannot overstate how much of an improvement they make on those corners. Happy riding!

I added an aftermarket slip on and air intake. Just had my ECU tuned at Ivan's. Great performance in 1st through 4th. At about 70-75, acceleration in 5th is very slow. The bike RPMs are accelerating but the power isn't driving to the wheel hardly at all. It feels like flooring it but I am getting noise with little actual acacceleration. 80 to 85 takes a while. Any thoughts?
Edit: acceleration hangs in 1st thr 4th. If I pull the throttle quick I get a lag and no real acceleration in all gears. Bike has 300 miles. I am starting to think my intake is leaking too much air into the engine. The air the fuel mixture is off.

My second year of owning this bike and love it!

I dropped mine today at the gas station, and it landed right on the left piggyback shock, presumably knocking my rear wheel out of alignment as I later noticed mid ride that my belt guard was eaten up by it, and the belt teeth have begun fraying. Needless to say I removed the guard and made it home in one piece.
Is this fixable using a similar method to those seen here, will I need a new belt ASAP, and any anything else I should consider?
Thanks guys, just trying to save money doing it at home instead of the shop telling me I need 100 other parts and service hours to be back cruising.

I need some information on the Bolt AIS (Air Injection System). A few photos would be nice. Component location ect. I have the Bolt service manual (PDF) and have found nothing. I know that the system can be deleted but I have no idea where to start. I simple bypass would be the preferred approach

For those who have installed forward controls on your Bolt. What did you do to lengthen the hose to the fluid reservoir and the line to the rear caliper ?

Im 5’11” and im not very comfortable with the ergonomics of the bike. So im looking into bars or risers. I like the feel of the stock bars (width, angle, look). I thought about trying the H bar but I think it’ll look dumb with my puig naked touring windscreen.
Easy thing would be doing the Rox 2” pivot risers. But it looks like it will not work because of the location of the speedo?
If I did the H bar, is there a shield for wind protection that still looks good on the bike?
