An Update. I emailed Tak-Lok to ask about disassembling the unit to paint it. They highly suggested against it, but mentioned that they have just started making a black matte version. They had me send in my chrome lock and exchanged it with a black matte lock. Think I'm going to like this...

Same here, I wanted the initial service on record. Past that, I do my own minor servicing (oil changes, air filter, TBS, etc).

FYI, the Cee Baily websight has that info here. (19" h X 15" w)

Still works? Could be. Still atattched to the bike after that photo? Probably not. :glare: :lol:

BTW, I have a friend on a GoldWing that is interested in joining me on this trip. Does anyone have any objections to me inviting an "non-feejer-forum" person along?

You're more than welcome to join me for the ride up and back. I haven't made any concrete plans yet, or even decided on a route. Probably will leave on Weds morning (Aug 1). Also, at this point it's just me since Janet has decided to skip this trip. I'll PM my phone # to you in case you want...

Yes, it does look kinda big hanging out there. And the whole chrome thing does kinda put me off. But if you're looking at a BreakAway, this is another option in the same price range with the same functionality. And it's stupid easy to install. I'm thinking maybe a rattle-can of black spray...

Edit: See update with photos in post #9 - Now in matte black! I recently found a throttle lock that I have never heard of before and thought some folks here might be interested as well. Tak-Lok. It works very similar to the BreakAway throttle lock – mechanically locks the throttle in place...

Feelin' the love! :blink: :lol: Lanny, talk to me buddy. What's yer itinerary...?

When did this happen?! Why don't nobody never tell me nothing?! Dammit, what am I going to do with this thing now.

Thanks, that's great info! How do they sound compared to the starcom headsets? FYI, the starcom headsets use the same connector as an old PS/2 mouse cable, although I've never tried using one.

Damn, the Europeans get all the good colors plus decals, and they get their choice of colors any given year! We just get one solid color per year, sans decals. Guess we're the red headed step children... Ocean Depth (Europe) = Cobalt (US) Red Sky (Europe) = Black Cherry (US)

Uhmm... you are talking about a motorcycle, right? And not a Na'vi from Avatar, right? Right?? Not sure if I'm reading motorcycle **** or sci-fi ****... :huh: :unsure: :D

I just noticed this post. Very nice Josh! Congratulations on completing the rally.

Dammitall Doug! Glad to hear that you're OK.

Ahhhrrrggg.

Hi Dan, I'm doing well. I remember when you first showed the picture of the photographer taking a picture of you folks taking a picture... :o ...you squid, you... :D

I'm sure what draws those types to both locations are the photographers at both locations.

At least I still need a hat... :huh:

Not my cup of tea, but there is some serious talent there. I've never seen a painted windshield before either...
