    Suspension Upgrade: Need Help

    Thanks for the info on the Penske James. And yep ! There is always room for improvement on riding style and skill. I try to work on it during most every ride. I've had to adjust style and agressiveness from the CBR1000 to the Busa to the FJR. I'm just struggling with the FJR and hoping not...

    Suspension Upgrade: Need Help

    So I've done as much as I can with the stock suspension on my new to me 07A with 2500miles. Given my riding style (more sporty, less touring) and my size 6' 240# I'm really not happy with stock. Can't get sag correct, not rebound happy. End result is turning peg feelers into molten metal...

    NorCal CHP - Using Laser on the Freeways ???

    I've seen that little "roadside party" on the way back from Tahoe, but always thought it was an air patrol arrangement. Seems like the only time my V1 alerts to Laser is in the presence of an oncoming INFINITI or LEXUS with what I've assumed the laser cruise control active...or when stuck in...

    NorCal CHP - Using Laser on the Freeways ???

    Crap. Folks say that laser is not real effective on motorcycles given the small frontal area and lack of reflective surface (ie..front plate). Fact or Fiction in your experience up North ?

    NorCal CHP - Using Laser on the Freeways ???

    I was on I-80 this AM traveling from Sacramento to the Bay Area and spotted a CHP parked on the side of the road. He was leaning against his cruiser holding a boxy looking thing with a lens-ish attachment up and "sighting " oncoming traffic. The Valentine did not alert, (I was in the cage...

    BarEnders Helmet Lock Group Buy is over

    Bet bet would be to contact BarEnder direct to ask, but previous conversations with them when setting up the buy indicatd that all sales outside of the continental US would be via the folks at aerostich. Unfortunately the group buy discount would not apply to those sales

    Ditto. Just got home and they were on the front porch. 3 minutes later they were on the bike. I am tremendously pleased with the quality. FYI.. I received a message from BarEnder this afternoon that all orders to date have been shipped. One name on the list has not ordered yet. I will send...

    BarEnders Helmet Lock Group Buy is over

    PMs are out to Draggon Rider and Recreate. Draggon: Galaxy hit it on the head. A Single (BE-6A) would give you one lock end, for one side only. The Single with Dummy (BE-6B) would be a Lock End and a Blank End (Dummy) so both sides match. The Dual or (BE-6C) would be 2 lock ends with...

    I guess you could double bill them as environmentally friendly rain collection devices if you hung your helmet there in the rain. In event of rain I would either take my lid with, or stuff it in one of the side bags. Whichever was more appropriate.

    Galaxy, Thanks for the update. Larry seems to be one heck of a stand up guy. He has been an absolute pleasure to deal with. I am tremendously pleased with his service and communication on this Buy. I wish they made more stuff that I could add to the Farkle list. 8 down, 7 to go, or 16...
