    The Hotel Booking Game

    A group of us went to the Virginia's and Tennessee in June 2011 and we used Room Saver or Hotel Saver coupons from a booklet found in rest stops and saved on Hotels that way. They give out a few rooms at the coupon rate and you need to get there early. We were stopping between 4 and 5 pm for the...

    Boneheaded Bike Drops

    Quote: "I managed to do it twice within a few months." How about twice in 1 day. Last June I was with a group in Vermont and the lead bike pulled off in dirt lane to decide which way to go since it looked like rain ahead. I pulled in and my front wheel hit some mud and over I went, broke the...

    **FOUND** Gen II or Gen III OEM Seats (just need the pans)

    I have a set I could sell, I need to get $150 plus shipping. Let me know if you're interested. They are from a 2006 and the front seat has had some foam removed to lower the height, the rear is original condition. I picked up a used Corbin last year and it is a huge improvement over the stock...

    Looking for low cost gps w/audio out port

    This may not be the solution for everyone but I bought a cheap Garmin Nuvi 40LM and pulled the back off and soldered a headphone jack across the speaker. I bought an extention cable and cut off the socket end and left about 4" and drilled a small hole through the case for it since there isn't...

    Looking for details on factory plugs for grip heater

    60 degrees is warm here but since I finished this yesterday and had to return to work, it was the only temperature I had. I rode the bike in on Weds morning and it was showing -1 celcius then which is 30-31 deg Wish I had the grips then to try! I'm hoping this nice weather continues for...

    Looking for details on factory plugs for grip heater

    No problem posting the photos but my bike is awful dirty, I was down to North Carolina in Sept and haven't washed the poor thing yet. I couldn't get the photos attached using the green 'image' button since the popup window didn't pop. I like how the controller is exactly the same size as the...

    Looking for details on factory plugs for grip heater

    Mihalis, Glad to provide the photos. The space on the throttle grip is for my Vista Cruise, I didn't have it on in that photo. I also normally use a throttle rocker and with the sport grips there is less room for it. I like the location of the grip controller also, the unit came with a bracket...

    Looking for details on factory plugs for grip heater

    OK, I got away yesterday for a couple of hours and completed the Oxford HotGrips install. I rode the bike to work after and these things get hot!. I found out that the 25% and 50% settings are fine in the 60F temps we had last night. I ended up wiring these through a relay and used the...

    Looking for details on factory plugs for grip heater

    Perfect. Thats exactly what I was looking for. I can use the blue green wire to switch a relay to power my grips. I got a deal locally on a set of the Oxford Sport model. The grips are shorter than stock but I made a spacer for the barend weight which fills in the gap and it still works with the...

    Looking for details on factory plugs for grip heater

    I have tried searching for this info but failed. I am installing Oxford HotGrips on my 2006A and want to use the factory wiring. Does anyone have any detail on the blue and white plugs next to the accessory box? My blue plug has nothing plugged in but the white one has a jumper attached. Just...
