    Bar end helmet locks?

    I got the Barenders from the website yesterday, and am pretty impressed. I ordered the two lock set, so I got two ends that come off, and four keys that open both locks. $94 to my door. They are heavier than stock, didn't have anything to weigh them with, but you can feel the difference while...

    Bar end helmet locks?

    Thanks for the input, I ordered two locks from their website, they have a fitting chart on the site. Even though the FJR has 7/8ths bars, it takes 6mm ends, I would have screwed that up for sure. I'll try to post up if no one else does, to answer the other questions raised when I get my ends...

    Bar end helmet locks?

    I'm planning on doing some work to my bars (Vista, Bmw's, bar ends) and thought I would try these bar ends from Aerostich. I couldn't find any info on here about anyone using them. I don't have big helmet storage issues or vibration issues, but these look like they would improve both...

    Skyway spacer help needed

    Sorry, I missed the side note that you had an 2006. I'm not that used to the format here, and offered help that pertained to my 05. I usually don't visit here often, and thought I would help. Won't happen again.

    Skyway spacer help needed

    You need a phillips head screw driver and a 4mm allen wrench. Remove the phillips head screws that hold the color matched portion of the windshield "W". Hold onto the windshield as you take these out, they are what retains the windshield. After the "W" and windshield are removed, you will see...

    Fenda Extenda Install Question

    Are you guys that are gluing removing the tape that comes on the Extenda? I noticed Warchild left it on in his how-to, but I wondered if a full glue bond would be better. I plan on installing this tonight on my '05.

    Mount GIVI Monokey case with a plate only??

    I drilled the stock rack and mounted the E450 base to it. The factory case uses part of that rack, and I am comfortable with it's abilities to hold the loads I intend. Of course, I did it today, and it has no miles on it. We'll see. I looked around first, and even found a post from someone who...

    Green Light Triggers

    Hit your start button. If that does not work, it is legal in Iowa to treat a malfunctioning traffic signal as a four way stop. If it does not change for me, after a reasonable wait, I'd say it's malfunctioning. YMMV.

    Best price on Autocom...

    uhh, Who is Kieth? Is that his user name that I would PM? I searched, but could not find any postings with Kieth and autocom anouncing a sale or anything. Sorry for being new.

    Oh yeah, listen to that sweet music!

    Bounce, what was the cost for the items on your website? I am looking into molded plugs, I see that Aerostich is selling a "at-home" molding kit, and I am trying to see what the best course is. I am looking locally, I would like to try some more genral ones with a helmet. I am not sure how far...

    Replacement 'Moko' style Aluminum Sliders

    Do you need the Moko bracket, or are these a complete slider? They look great, BTW.

    Bike-to-Bike Communications...

    That was kinda my point with the marine band, too. I don't see any enforcement, and think that my plain black uniden would go unnoticed by the fuzz. I am not LOOKING to break the law, but the Uniden seems to have all the features I require for motorcycle use. I carry my cell phone for...

    WTF??

    Personally, I'd rather do my own maintenence, because I have the shop manual, the correct tools, and I do it like my life may depend on it. I am pretty sure I care more about my life than the high school dropout that is thinking about getting in his girls pants more than the correct torque for...

    Bike-to-Bike Communications...

    Has anyone considered Marine band? I have a Uniden marine band handheld that was less than $100, has choice of 1 watt or 5 watt transmitting powers, and is waterproof. It also comes with a 12v adapter and a rechargeable battery. It also has weatherband. The range on land is at least as good as a...

    Did I get one of the last new '05 FJRs?

    I really wanted that bike, I ended up finding another at a different dealer , but Mike at Rock River was great to deal with. The hang up for me was selling my FZ1, and I had to watch both his sell on E-bay while a tire kicker had me twisting in the wind. I talked to Mike several times, and am...
