Installed the TomTom Rider today. The S has a built-in, OEM cable so it was pretty much plug and play.
Nice lift cant beat it for the price

It took 4 guys (me being one of those) at the store to get it into my wife's car. The comment was "I can't believe it, he'll be able to close the hatch!" We took it out of the crate, since I knew it wouldn't fit in the crate. It sure as hell wasn't going in the Mini! I got it out myself, without damage to her car, at home.
Princess Auto is our equivalent to Harbor freight from what I can tell. It is a solid unit and better than the one we have at work, both wider and with a better ramp. There were cheaper ones without air-hydraulics, but this was the only one in stock, and part of my Christmas bonus went to this indulgence. It has replaceable and rebuildable components so it should last a lifetime.
Nice buy!
Princess auto is what Canadian tire used to be, back in the day.
For some reason, princess skipped our province... can't blame them, actually.
I wonder if they make K60's in a 190?
Got my K-60s in! Went ahead and got the front also because even it is more aggressive than my Avon Distanzias are.
Here is a comparison of my Distanzia to the Heidenau's on the Tiger.
Nice, let us know how you like them.
I had my Heidenau's installed Saturday and went for a 200 mile ride Sunday. My ride was all paved on as many twisty roads as can be found where I live.
The only issue I have is when slowing down between 10 - 15 miles per hour it vibrates like crazy from the front. I assume it is just the right speed for the tread up front to resonate. Because of that I am glad I did not go with a more aggressive front.
The tire profile is fairly flat compared to a sport radial. Because of that turn in requires a little more input but once there I felt planted for the way I ride. I never felt uncomfortable.
I will do a little single track forest run here in a few weeks and report back on off - road.
I still plan to do more experimenting with tires. Next up I want to try the Full Bore Adventure tires. They have a pattern very much like the 705s but with wider tread gaps. Full Bore Tires - Adventure Touring
