Thanks gents, very helpful.

So the rear tire on my SM is past due for replacement at a little over 5000 miles, and I'm ordering a replacement. I've installed plenty of tubeless sportbike tires before, and a few tubed dirtbike tires, but never a tube inside a tubeless tire. Anything special I should look out for when...

Thanks to everyone who replied, and especially Leeo45 for all his research. I switched both my bikes over to Foremost today with full coverage, and I'm paying about 1/3 of what Progressive was charging me for full coverage on the Ducati and liability only on the Alta. Now I'm glad Progressive...

You could be right. I'm in the process of moving, and only have a small metric-only toolkit handy. All my SAE stuff is somewhere on the way across the Pacific. I assumed since the rest of the kit hardware is metric the big bolts would be too, but they could be 3/8".

I put them on my SM on Sunday, and am pretty happy with them. Quality is very good and they are solid. I got the mirrors too, which work well despite the small size, and help clean up the front end. The handlebar top clamp is a pretty close fit with the dash, and partially obscures the view of...

I had a similar issue with the NCR kit on my SM, but it only effected the taillight, the brake light and turn signals worked fine. I contacted NCR, they looked into it, and discovered the new firmware feature described above: the ECU load tests the circuit and shuts it off if it doesn't see...

Yeah, for me the SM actually lowered my Progressive premium, since they figured it would mean I'd ride the full-coverage Ducati less. I'd still prefer a company that offers full coverage on both.

Hi, I'd like to install a set of bark busters (not the full plastic covers, just the aluminum knuckle guards) on my SM. Has anyone been down this road before. I see MotoMinded/BRP has a set using Cycra guards with BRP adapters and a bar end tapping kit. Will this work on and SM? Any other good...

Who's had experience getting full coverage (ie. collision and theft) on an Alta (SM in my case)? I have Progressive on my Ducati, but they would only offer liability only on the Alta. I know of at least one person who had Geico full coverage, but would like to know if there are any other options...

Hi, I'm thinking about jumping on the bandwagon and buying an SM as a commuter/play-bike. From following the forums it seems pretty clear that having a good dealer is key to the ownership experience. There are only two dealers within a reasonable distance from my area, JT Motorsports in...
