    Clutch level too far out

    In the reviews, few complain that since shortie clutch lever fits only two fingers that they ache when friction zone is engaged over extended duration, like in slow moving traffic or frequent traffic light stops. How bad is it? Is it better to go with standard length adjustable levers.

    Clutch level too far out

    Clutch lever too far out Similar to front break lever, is there a way to adjust the clutch lever so that it is closer to the bar end grip when fully disengaged? I have started doing some slow speed drills that require the clutch to be held in friction zone most of the practice duration, and...

    Is this the OEM battery?

    How often should battery be replaced? I have a 2013 bike, bought used two years ago, and haven't had any starting issues to date. Battery never on a tender/trickle charger, even during winter. Bike always starts on first attempt. Not sure how old this battery is. Should a battery be replaced...

    Marthy Tribute Exhaust.... Oh yeah!

    I used the hanger that came with ds70 even when i had the exhaust Can under the bike (now i have it on the side). The oval was diagonally oriented. I used a metal strip with holes on either end and twisted it slightly along its length, so that the hanger bolt lined up on one end, and a...

    Oil change and dipstick reading

    If the bike is upright, the level is about 70% of the hashes. Since I put exactly 3 qts (almost recommended 2.96 qts) with new filter, it appears this is the level manufacturer wants. In the past, when one of the shops that did oil change filled it all the way to the top of the hashes, another...

    Marthy Tribute Exhaust.... Oh yeah!

    Not sure, it could have been a customized Danmoto exhaust. But it certainly was not a Delkevic.

    Oil change and dipstick reading

    I did an oil change and it was my first time doing it. I had the bike on side stand, drained most of the old oil and changed the filter. But when I added 3 quarts (or 2.96 as per manual), after starting the bike for 3 minutes, the dipstick level without turning is only 40% wet of the textured...

    Marthy Tribute Exhaust.... Oh yeah!

    The previous owner of my bike had Marthy exhaust installed, but without the hanger. As a new rider and new to bikes, I had no awareness of an exhaust hanger and its need. None of the mechanics that worked on my bike found the hanger absence a safety risk. I had the bike lowered shortly after...
