Here you can see the front bolt through the hole in the rack, at least I'm hoping it's the same rack. This is the one on my 2020 with the OE rack and boxes from the Adventure model.

It is fine for me. I picked mine up in Austin, TX in January 2020 and rode it home to Tucson. I've ridden it from Tucson to Chicago and back, and then down into Mexico.
Since I've moved closer to family I don't have as many big mile trips on my horizon, but it's my only bike so if I did then I...
I had a similar failure on my 1200 Sport. I can't remember all the steps I went through but I know I went through 3 separate dashboards until I finally sent mine to Carmo in the Netherlands for repair. There was water damage in the circuits, they repaired the circuits and then applied multiple...
Not a V7, but I'll bet my V85 experience is similar.
I didn't care for the big signals, but the worst was the spacers they put on the front signals to make them legal in the US. On my V85 it was going to be a bit of work to get the spacers out, so I decided to go with the Euro signals as I liked...
Every electric vehicle I've seen has the charger built into it, that determines the maximum charge speed the vehicle is capable of.
The cord is the EVSE, Electric Vehicle Supply Equipment, and it is how the electricity gets from the plug to the vehicle.
The EVSE for the Zero I test rode was...
Yes, 2008 1200 Sport. I think I adjusted the brake link arm because I thought it would lower the brake pedal, but it did not. But it may have made it so the brake didn't engage until I pressed on it.
I had previously installed some Buell pegs which required a lot of grinding to work and may...

These are what I had on mine. I didn't buy any extra lever extensions, the shifter could be repositioned and the brake lever was fine for me.
The standard US side stand touched the lowered pegs...
I've used Shinko 705 tires for a long time, I agree with Marco_Guzzi in that you can't beat the price and value. They will likely show up on my V85 at the next tire change.
I attended a Ride Like a Pro class about two years ago. I think Jerry Palladino created the class but individuals can become certified to provide it on their own, I was in Marana, AZ.
It was all low speed friction zone work; while I was worried about what I was doing to my clutch for a while...
When these things get hot they tend to do that, at least mine does. Once I can get some movement going in clear air to cool it all down then things get back to normal.
Unless you make a fix on the little arm that holds the adjuster in place you'll find your clutch will adjust itself in short order again.
I ended up fastening a zip tie lightly to hold the little spring arm in place and haven't had trouble since.
Here's a picture of the adjuster before I put...
While you can get the tubeless wheels of the '21 model, the newer bike has a completely different ECU the bits that go along with that. While anything is possible, I think it would be a huge amount of expensive work to make a 2021 out of a 2019 and likely cheaper to just sell your 2019 and buy...
I'm quite pleased with my 2020 and at this point would not pay an extra $2500 for the newer model. The tubeless wheels are worth it to me and it looks like they're about $1100 to buy new with about an 8-week wait.
