I've ridden that road only once and I intend to ride it again. Glad it wasn't a worse slide. If you've never experienced that road on a bike, you're really missing a great experience! Thanks, John, for the update.

How long before we see "The Darkside Special Edition" model? And maybe the trailer towing equipment package?

I looked at mine as I readied the FJ-09 for a ride into work. In the rain. But afternoon is looking to be warm and dry so I'll be taking the long way home.

rbentnail, I don't recommend using blue Loctite (242) on anything that potentially comes into contact with plastic. Loctite 242 (blue) and 271 (red) will breakdown some plastics, polycarbonate (Lexan) in particular. I learned this lesson the hard way. Loctite makes another product #495 that...

+2 from Newburyport. Probably Friday and Saturday night, maybe Thursday night(hopefully!)

Jeff, Its been a pleasure doing business with you over the years. You have a well deserved reputation for excellent customer service. I wish you best of luck with your medical challenges and future endeavors. Russ

Helmet is in very good condition. This model has a flip down internal sun visor also. Bought this a couple years ago for my pillion, turned out to be just a little too small. She decided to use my daughter's HJC size L instead. So the Bell's been collecting dust for a while, time to sell it...

Buy the FJR, you'll be a happy rider. And don't let the greased spline issue dissuade you. Greasing of the splines is a 30 minute (tops) process when you're changing the rear tire. I usually do it every other tire change. I cannot recall ever seeing a failure of an FJR drive shaft spline...

Fred, Regarding post #9 above: Area of the piston varies with the square of the diameter, therefore the ratio is not linear. For your first example (33.96^2 - 30.23^2)/(30.23^2) X 100 = 26.2% not 12.3% Cranking through the rest of the equations is left to the student. JSNS

Here in New England we're having a late winter nor'easter today. 2-4" inches of snow per hour (18" total forecasted) and high winds, coastal erosion, etc. Looks like the bike stays in the garage a while longer.

Iggy, I'm sure that 'Blue LED' can be delicately integrated into your epitaph.

Last one is spoken for. Thanks everybody.

I just put a new Seth Laam on my 2014 with the SR357 rack. It is a tight fit, but the seat will go on. If you want to see a photo, PM me your email address. Be aware that every seat is constructed differently, according to the info you give Seth. Its worth discussing the fit with the Givi...

This year, as in previous years, I make an extra balancer in case one of the units gets lost or damaged en route to it's new owner. All of this year's hardware made it to their new home, so consequently I have one new balancer that is not spoken for. If you are interested, please PM me.

Got out for 25-30 miles on this unseasonably warm (and sunny) February day. Got my first miles on the new Seth Laam. Best thing I can say is I didn't really notice it. Looking forward to many more miles when real spring arrives.

Got my new Seth Laam seats put on the bike. Feel pretty good just sitting in the garage making vroom vroom noises. Too much white stuff on the roads right now for a proper evaluation. I know Seth has had a tarnished reputation for his communication skills and business practices, but I did not...

I was traveling for work on 2/5. Ended up watching the SB in a bar/restaurant in Florida. Boy, there are a lot of Atlanta fans out on the Florida panhandle. They sure got quiet in the 4th quarter. At least the got to enjoy the commercials.

Might be worth the time to give Heli a call (800-289-1047). They're very helpful and knowledgeable folks.

Damn fine reporting and photo documentation there DC. You're killing us New Englanders. We're looking at 6 more weeks of winter..

Talked to Seth Laam for about a half hour as he was preparing to make my seats. He asked a lot of good questions and we had a productive conversation (I think). Seats will be in MA next week.
