    Just make sure that the stuff you put on your bike works
    The Farkle shelf works.
    The only things that should be on your handlebars are the switches
    Autocom works
    Bluetooth Intercom is only for day-trippers

    I spray Lemon Pledge on all my chrome & paint just before going on a long distance ride, sure helps with bug guts removal after the trip as I don't clean my scoot while on a ride.

    Don't watch videos for mods on a 1st generation wing and expect the 2nd generation wing to be the same.

    The pegs scraping is like 90% of your lean angle. Take the noise as a warning, not a challenge

    Ice cube trays are a great way to keep track of and organize small screws and push pins when working on your bike.

    Let's stick to tips and tricks.

    I carry a small piece of plywood 4"X5" to place under my side stand whenever the ground or pavement is soft.

    I made an ole skool biker whip out of braided paracord with a panic snap on one end and attached a piece of diamond plate with a rubber back to the other for my kickstand. The panic snap attaches to my clutch lever so I never leave the pad behind.
