    Name of that tank bag w/ gps mount?

    Ya know, I can't find the bookmark of the tank bag I was going to replace my Ocelot of 9 years with..... I saw it here and it is mounted above the fuel filler neck (kinda levatated off the paint on a bracket) on a bracket for quick on / off. Also, the bag was able to be powered and an...

    Garmin Zumo Mount

    I mounted mine on the clutch bracket wtih the supplied Ram mount. I wanted a techmount so the GPS would be mounted low and center but did not have the time to wait b4 a big ride. Actually it worked out quite well where it was and I really did not mind it's location. I used a few black zip...

    PCIII saves the day

    I am also using the 001 map from Powercommander.com (Stock exhaust, O2 sensor disconnected). Simple download. While the bike was apart I also did the simple verson of the air box mod. Before cutting the plastic I spoke with a DynoJet rep on the telephone and he informed me the air box mod...

    PCIII saves the day

    While I'm sure there are plenty of posts on how well the PCIII works for fixing the throttle problem I just figured I'd relay my two cents. If you don't have one on an 06-08, you need one. Completely changed my riding experience. I so very wish I had this PCIII when on my 2k ride south a few...

    Premium Gas

    In addition to the above listed posts.... I can also tell you that octane is the quiet and not well known robber of power. If you engine runs well on 87 then 91 will show less power at your rear wheel. Octane simply resists combustion. Think it's crazy? Rent a dyno and see for yourself. My...

    ecu recall and mpg change on 2007

    1. can only report what the confuser told me 2. pretty much flat as a pancake here in the flatlands of Illinois 3. Try hypermilin! Sure it's fun to rip it (and see my post for that change of mpg) but sometimes it can be just as much of a challenge to keep the bike over 50 mpg. It's difficult...

    The Dragon ,The Snake and New Roadsmart tires

    I love that area of the globe for riding!!!!!! I hit the dragon last year on my Beemer and it was HORRIBLE!!! I counted 13 LEO's on the TN side of the gap and it was terribly crowded. Unsafe riding due to the rapid freak out breaking of the surrounding bikes who all piled up due to a LEO in...

    Close call today and a reminder

    When I traffic I do my best to stay dedicated to the idea of controlling my surroundings... Keep a good distance between all vehicles around you and never get into a blind spot. Use the acceleration of the bike to open / close gaps. VIP....keep it in a usable gear at all times. It boils my...

    ecu recall and mpg change on 2007

    I did 50.4 on a 25 mile run and I brought the average back down to 38 after a 10 mile run! That 1300 mill knows how to tip em' back when your on the go!! Has anyone had any bad experiences with the swap out?? (Messed up or loose panels, items etc,,,) I want to have mine done but sometimes...

    Would you buy a Heated Seat? Why or Why not?

    I had a heated Rick Mayer saddle on my BMW R1200RT and I did not use it much. It took awhile to get the heat into my rear end but on the days where it was cold and or raining it sure was nice to have it! I'd say that I would purchase a heated seat again. Just don't expect it to put ya on the...

    Dynojet Power Commander (PCIII) Group Buy

    I read in and earlier post that the shipping may be delayed a few days / weeks due to specific warehouse shipping locations. Does that delay relate to order confirmation? I'm not worried about it or anything.. I know there have been many very satisfied buyers on this board and I fully expect...

    Chicagoland Forum Member Gathering - July 6

    Hello, Larry, I chatted w/ you the other day about the PCIII and I'd love to join you guys on this ride if there is still space. I know the request is short notice but it is the best I could do. Please let me know if there is room for another feejer. I would be happy to meet you at the...

    Throttlemeister / G-2 compatability?

    Thank you to all! I'm gonna have a go at it. Rondo777 I agree w/ you. That throttle off / on thing should never have gotten past the Yamaha team. Borderline unsafe. I was in the hills of WV last week and I was nearly as focused or sometimes more focused on applying the throttle so that...

    Throttlemeister / G-2 compatability?

    Hello all. I'm beginning my quest to fix that #$%&^@ throttle abruptness that so plagues my 06. I'm prob gonna go with the PCIII but I'd also like to try the G-2 in addition (or solo each). -My question... will the G-2 allow the Throttlemeister to function properly or will it render my cruise...
