Thank you, it is the 36mm. I discovered that mine was finger tight at 8000 miles. I have torqued it to 85 LB Ft.

Asked and answered... I still don't understand this tool turning the photo... anyway 3000 miles on the darkside on this tire and with all the dang rain only 3000 miles on this tire so far but still 8/32 tread in all grooves.

Good morning, looking for the nut size. I found the torque spec 85LB Ft in the manual but not the nut size I don't have a socket that large currently. it is loose and a long way to a dealer.... better if I can go purchase the socket but what size I'm guessing about 35MM but not sure?

Well Freebird... apparently Rumbling pride no longer honors the code posted. "invalid coupon code" is the message.... so still paying full price and the full shipping price.

Good Morning, So, I found that the clamps were not tight enough when clamped to the engine guards; So I drilled a single hole through both the clamp and the engine guard and tapped the hole at 1/4" x 20 and then threaded and tightened the round head screw to prevent any twisting. No, I did not have any need to cut the plastic.

You are correct this tire is not a run flat. I may look into one next time. so far 700 miles and great ride

I turned the whole garage on its side

Look closely at his photos, earlier version of the Venture was shaft drive, his photos show the right side belt drive

Her ya go... and YES these are on my 2018 SVTC rides great. this the second bike on which I've gone to the dark side. Love it, better braking, traction, and more sure footed one my one mile of sandy dirt road in S.E. GA I also used Dyna Beads to balance the tire... Love these.

YOu are incorrect, the TPMS is not located near the valve stem, it is actually located 180 degess from the valve stem and CAUTION! very clearly explain this to any shop doing tire work on your tires. I took my rear wheel to the tire shop yesturday morning to have my car tire mounted, sooner than I planned as I ran over a screw. long story short they broke off the TPMS sensor. Now I have no wheel until they get it fixed and then mount my tire.

The phots are of his '18 SVTC, he has had older versions too

hope this helps. this is another SVTC owners post on FB

Not that I've experienced. They are higher than the foot boards and I think you'd be down before you drag them

Not yet. I purchased it but still have a couple thousand miles on the oem tire. others have installed tires this size this has been discussed on this facebook group's page as well https://www.facebook.com/groups/781935901987573/

that's a lot of wishfull thinking...I went through multiple motocycle tires avg 9800 mile on each one....like 7 at 220.00 each vs 2 at 68.00 each

This is the tire I purchased for my SVTC - Achilles ATR sport 205/55R16XL 94W I used this brand and style tire on my '09 Kawasaki Voyager and of the 104,000+ miles on that bike I got 30,000+ miles out of the first one and had 10,000+ on the second when I sold the bike to buy this one Link to this tire for $57 https://www.tires-easy.com/205-55-16/achilles-tires/atr-sport/tirecode/MAA205516W

Wow... wish I had known that.... and thanks

These are the few mods I've made so far... the rechargable streamlight stinger does not obstruct two helmets in trunk, the pushbutton waterproof accessory switches are shallow draft as there is so little room under those covers, the flag mounts are from Rumbling Pride's TCM series mounts and the $70 Amazon black highway pegs, also replaced the 12v cigar plug outlet with a 4.2 amp dual usb port with weather cover. I have ordered an air horn and have the Rox 2" risers to install this weekend. Love, Love Love this bike

I agree with NNY, for me the ROX risers are a great option. here is a link to the best price I found on google for the part number that will fit the SVTC http://www.directcycleparts.com/apparel-helmets-vendor-catalogs-drag-specialties-2018-fatbook-handlebars-controls-mirrors-speed-speed-p2rx-inch-pivot-riser-black-p-79072.html?_vsrefdom=adwords&gclid=Cj0KCQjwvqbaBRCOARIsAD9s1XBWCWHqnL1wq-mN9RwT4StqlUveZ_EzLZLEbS1HZe-WNpY5n_b0YzQaAp44EALw_wcB

One note on the Black pegs from Amazon the clamps are supposed to be for 1" bars, they were a bit loose when tightened; so I tapped a hole and added a black pan head allen bolt 1/4-20 to prevent any twist of the clamps.

So the black $69.99 Amazon pegs are in and on. I like them. The kuryakyn chrome long horns that I had on my Kawi Voyager blistered and peeled. I just wasn't willing to give the the $173..99 for them this time.
