    Old Helmets

    What do you guys do with your old helmets? I have a couple sitting in a closet that are too old to be riding with.

    Hi from Northern BC, Canada

    I have the Hornig shifter extensions on my bike. Easy install and helps a lot. The only complaint is that the o-rings need to be replaced frequently.

    Question SeaFoam (Annual Maintenance)

    I use it to over-winter my bike as a fuel stabilizer. I also use it in my lawnmower and other combustion engine tools. Dosage per the instructions on the can. I think 1oz/ gallon. I also add it to the oil on my house's backup generator to remove water condensation since I live near the ocean.

    R18 Louvered Performance Plates

    Interesting torque curve. BMW specs the R18 at 158Nm (166ft-lb) at 3,000 rpm.

    Machined engine housing cover decorative trim

    Thanks, Star-Lord, that's what I was looking for! My only other concern is interference with the Wunderlich oil cooler cover that I have installed. How far down does it sit on the engine cover, and how is it attached?

    R18 Louvered Performance Plates

    I think it should be a scoop design similar to a hood scoop on a car.

    Oil Site Glass Replacement?

    Was the old oil "milky" when you changed it? That would indicate condensation / water in the oil. Try adding some Seafoam to the oil to absorb the moisture.

    New to driving a sidecar rig. Talegating the car in front. What could go wrong?
