    J&M CB Audio Question

    Some sort of heads up display that projects onto the windscreen maybe?

    2200 LED Driving Light Experiement

    Oh yeah, absolutely. I'm running a set of 1100X's on the fork legs and generally have them aimed out a little toward the shoulders which gives me what I have considered good "side" visability. My thinking has been the next set of lights would be mounted high and I'd go for distance in the...

    2200 LED Driving Light Experiement

    Now that I've had a few minutes to look the photos over... Comparing the high beams only to the "I'm giving you all she's got Capt'n photo on the bottom it appears that the gain in overall distance isn't that great, but the increase in light intencity has not only given you more "width" in what...

    J&M CB Audio Question

    I couldn't stand it. Couldn't wait until this week-end, I had to know. Test 1: After reading the posts here about it not working I went and plugged up my phone to my J&M and laid it on the fairing behind the lockable storage compartment on the left and called my wife. She heard me, I heard...

    J&M CB Audio Question

    I was standing in the workshop (had to let the dog out through the basement) when I read and replied above. I walked upstairs and saw my wife and son standing there so I asked my wife if she heard me clearly and loudly, or did it sound like I was on speakerphone, thinking that possibly when I...

    J&M CB Audio Question

    If someone can think of a way for me to show you guys it's working I'll be glad to. Normally I have three cell phones (one of which would have to be connected to the bike) and a land line, plus assorted digital cameras, etc. As I mentioned earlier, I've got no dog in this hunt and for me...

    J&M CB Audio Question

    Interesting story there... Two years ago my son and I did a BBG to Jacksonville for the IBA party. Of course while we're there we go down to Daytona and check out all the stuff at bike week. We came up on the/a J&M truck at one of the vendor areas and figure we'd pick their brains. We had...

    J&M CB Audio Question

    Not a problem. I have no clue off the top of my head, but I'll check when I get home from work and post back here with the answer.

    J&M CB Audio Question

    No extra cords or anything. I (and my son prior to me yesterday) simply plugged in the J&M plug and it worked fine. I have no idea if mine worked that way before I got it because it's not the same unit I sent to them. When you send one in for repairs now they don't actually repair your...

    J&M CB Audio Question

    All of the handlebar mounted systems are technically JMCB-2003. However, there have been running upgrades over the years that were made and if you sent the radio in for a repair (prior to the new policy) they would automatically do any and all upgrades to the radio. As I mentioned, the units...

    J&M CB Audio Question

    I hate to be argumenitive being the noob an all, but after reading the above replies I went into the spacious well lit McCrary Man Cave & Motorcycle Workshop, unplugged my iPod from the J&M unit, plugged in my iPhone 4 and called my wife. We had a crystal clear conversation. Because I wanted...

    J&M CB Audio Question

    Now that I think about it... He downloaded an auto answer app on the Android,, but complained about ground noise while charging. A ground loop isolator would have probably fixed that. How funny - He just called about something else and I was asking him about it. He confirmed what I was...

    J&M CB Audio Question

    Yep, sure can. I haven't done it at all, but my son did with his Android phone and it worked fine. He hasn't tried it with his latest phone, but it too should work fine.

    2200 LED Driving Light Experiement

    Yeah, I'd love to have them too. But unfortunately I'm on a budget, and I need/want to do more with $850 than get one set of lights... But thanks for the suggestion!

    Auxiliary Light Brackets

    Here's a late but very much warranted update. Garauld and I exchanged several emails in which I expressed my concerns and needs from a bracket. He went so far as to send me CAD drawings of his brackets with one of the brand of lights I'm considering mounted in different configurations. He...

    2200 LED Driving Light Experiement

    Good looking lights! The bike looks great too! Your link to Anazon goes to a set of "flood" lights and some of the comments mention that the beam only goes out 20 ft or so. Do you have the flood lights or the spot lights? I'm looking for a pencil beam type light that will give me as much...

    Michelin Pilot Road 3

    Interesting thread, good read. FWIW, I've had three sets of PR2's back to back over the last 3 years, I take them off before they are worn completely out but the least I got out of the three sets was 10K, which I'm fine with. Just for giggles I decided to try the PR3's this time around...

    N/Line FJR Dash - If we can get enough people, they might make another batch

    Did that, and you're right, it helped, but apparently it takes both that and the well nut. Tell you what also helped, and this is strange sounding, when I went to the V-Stream and removed the Yamaha touring screen. I'm guessing the air flow over the edges of the dash slowed it down some... I...
