@Tardy_Productions19 күн бұрын
Definitely bigger, I’m 6’ and the bolt doesn’t feel spacious but absolutely bigger than the rebel. If you do get a bolt, I’d recommend finding some 13inch rear shocks, they will make the bike fit you a lot better.

"This Ring" is the fork tube bushing. It is why the tube does not just rattle around in the bottom half. To drive that top seal in, just slit a piece of schedule 40 PVC down one side slide it down over the tube, and whack the seal in.

It's really tough and now I can get an easy and cheap replacement on Amazon for 80$. I love it and it has those rubber foot rests in just the right spot for the highway.

So 10w (cold) is thinner than 20w(cold), and 40(hot) is thinner than 50(hot). With the Bolt being Air Cooled, if you live in Arizona, Texas, etc.. and generally ride in over 90-100° ambient temp. definitely think about stepping up to 20w-50. Sometimes 10-40 is difficult to find. Any new oil is better than running on old oil. So use what you can get. Any oil labled "Meets or exceeds JASO MA2" will work just fine, and more than over kill for these bikes. Pro Tip: The Bolt has a wet clutch system, the clutch shares the same oil as the motor. So the clutch is at the same Temperature as the motor oil.... so its much easier to cook your clutch when the engine is Hot. Get some air flow over those fins every couple dounts!

I have ridden my Saddleman for well over 5,000 miles and it has still not broken in. On rides I had to revert to the stock saddle for comfort. Also, the gel inside heats up here in Phoenix and so that the saddle is unbearable to ride on. I complained to Saddleman twice and they offered to 'test' it and if there were no problems I would be penalized with postage. Lousy customer service! It is what it is....looks great BUT crazy hot gel in the summer and hard as hell. I just ordered a custom Whiplash 'Brown Bomber' after reading on line reviews and I am confident it will be a big step up from the Saddleman!
