I will say that we are looking at different dates for the event but have other parties schedules to take into consideration. So until then enjoy the summer and keep the rubber side down!

Holy smokes, have you seen VRIDETV's billboard on the Icefields Parkway?

Vrod Radiator & oil cooler care
by Editor on 06/27/18
Friendly reminder to all the V-Rod owners out there to inspect your radiator and oil cooler. You will be amazed at all the little stones and debris you'll find in there. If left in there, the odds of a stone vibrating & potentially damaging one of these expensive components increase of over time.
This started by picking a single stone out, then that turned into pulling the shroud off and grabbing a flashlight and cleaning each fin with a pin. An hour later, all that debris you see in this pic was in the rad & oil cooler.
(I think I might have OCD)
Steady shot, rear motorcycle cam
by Editor on 06/19/18
In our ongoing pursuit for the steadiest shot possible more upgrades have been done to our rear cam mount. Previously there were three vertical supports, two on the inner fender and the other on the saddlebag "U" support. It was the latter that I suspect was the culprit for vibration.
Keeping the rear camera supports separate from the saddlebag mount should help smooth out the video footage. In order to do this I used two pieces of 1x1x1/4 aluminium angle and bolted that to the existing inner fender mounts, then attached a 1x1x1/4 aluminium flat bar above the licence plate holder for additional rigidity.

I really like this spot for a saddlebag lunch, it's at the Kilby campgrounds near the Kilby Historical Site. Great place to grab a few pics of the Red Rod
