    Does anyone here also own a GL 1800 & FJR

    Ahh, I was wired..BUT the speaker thing I solved (yes autocom speakers bite).. Autocom has a lower cord that allows you to plug in the standard earbuds. I plugged in ER6i and took the speakers out of my helmet all together, That left the mike active. I wanted to go wireless.. But never got...

    Does anyone here also own a GL 1800 & FJR

    I had both at the same time.. Use the GL on board system.. I had Autocom gear in my helmet. the big online GL store has adapters to make them talk. The I put an Autocom system on my FJR (For sale BTW it is a PRO 7) Then I could use the Autocom on both. I did not care for the JM setup. I did...

    Fred,, I replaced my pads with the HH Scintered from EBC.. This made a HUGE difference. I had to re-calibrate my two finger pull as I was applying to much through practice and muschle memory. Andy, I have been in that situation a couple of times, I live in Utah where the traffic courts send...

    OMG, Ok lets review.. No, I am not mad because my bike does not have a clutch, I dont have a bike anymore because I crashed it.. So your premise is incorrect and yet you base many conclusions on your incorrect premise.. (As I said, lets keep up here ladies) Pertaining to.. That is way to fancy...

    Carl went down

    On a GENII 6K RPM In SECOND gear is 60MPH, In 4th gear you are somewhere close to triple digits +or-. I used the 1K per 10MPH in 2nd as a gauge for downshifting when riding spirited. It is almost dead on. 1 to 1 This officer seems to be talking out the side of his mouth. Unusual too, I have...

    I did not have the bucks for one that sold for 1200 bucks.. I think it was a 94 as it was an import (guy was stationed in Japan) I dont htink they were bringing them in their entire production run from there

    OK, I will bite. What "Victim" are you referring to. Did someone get hurt? If someone comes on here and asks if they need a better steering wheel on their car because there is a shimy in the wheel at 55 should we limit our answers to the steering wheel? Or does it make more sense to explore...

    It is far less simple than braided lines and 3lb of pressure and so on... Understanding your bike and learning from an experience is the best course of action.. Posting about the experience here and taking feedback for what it is worth to try to learn is a noble and intelligent thing to do IMHO...

    Need More Brakes!

    I dont want to transport cones to and from the lot.. I thought about it. I use the parking lines, trees, and planters as barriers. I found trying to miss a planter or falling off a good motivator to look where you want to go and the threat of a slow speed getoff a good motivator for training out...

    I don think I am faster without ABS.. Exactly the opposite.. I think it is a great tool to make up for human reactions. What I was trying to share was I am attempting to train the "Knee Jerk" reaction out of myself.. Target Fixation is another one, rolling on the throttle when scared instead...
