Re: [ST] 3K service



Yes, the other shop used the Triumph Mobil 1 in it.  I guess I just thought
I read that next oil change was due at 3000.  Again, not that I am
complaining.  Just means I put the extra money I saved on the new helmet.
Now I should have it paid off and picked up this weekend.

Scott, you will love the bags.  I have used them quite a bit and have had no
problems - besides the Triumph sticker that came off and a couple screws
that came loose that I tightened.  Now I just need to get off my butt some
time to see how long it will take to remove the brackets and put the exhaust
back in the "up" position.  And the TBR can will be going on over the
winter.

So far it looks like the sproket change was a good move.  I rode home with a
passenger on the bike and haven't had a chance to have fun on it yet, but
the bike DEFINITELY accelerates much smoother and easier.  Especially in 6th
gear at highway speeds.  Passing is not a problem without downshifting.
Should have more time on it tomorrow and through the weekend.
