I have the trim tape. Might have a bit of the Dual Lock (or Scotch Lock), but would have to find it... Same unit is on eBay...

The RAM ball would fit the back of the head unit but I still have to secure it to the bike. The "Dual Lock" stuff I mentioned is like the "Velcro" product you linked. I just had another look and I think I can use double-sided trim tape (or Dual Lock) and attach it to a flat spot beside the LCD...

TPS?? Usually Throttle Position Sensor, but it doesn't flash...

I thought that was the case - it certainly used to be. Seems to me Dropbox asks you to join and provide info, but you don't have to in order to download.

I bought a TPMS off Amazon. Inexpensive, waterproof and the handlebar mounted display provides pressures, temperatures and bike voltage. Also has a fast USB charge port for phones, power banks etc. on the side. Head unit hooks to the bike so no batteries. Sensors have replaceable batteries...

I've been held up at the bridge at Wiscasset for as long as 20 minutes and another 10 minutes through town! I would have expected July 4 to be awful, although perhaps not as bad as a nice summer weekend. Lots of people stay home rather than hit the tourist roads for that holiday. I guess you...

OK, I know what you are talking about - I've never replaced them (or any of the other caliper bits either). As you said - quite expensive for what they are. I think I can edit in Libre Office...

I have not been to Fort Edgecomb - will have to do that some time. I have been to Pemequid. Very picturesque. Problem with some of the Maine coastal destinations is tourist crowds - especially summer weekends. (Ever try Boothbay on a warm Sunday afternoon in July?) The whole Route 1 from...

Nicely done. I will take this and modify for my Gen II (different plugs) and my preferences for lubricants, filters, and (EBC) brake pads. Great to have all in one place instead of digging through the shop manual for a torque value! I agree with your comment about oil drain plug torque - I...

I have 100,000 miles on my 2011 and it probably isn't good for much more than another 100,000. With a spare low mileage engine, the bike would outlast my remaining riding days! If it wouldn't cost a fortune to crate and ship, I would be thinking seriously (not to mention the logistics of...

Warm & Safe, Gerbings or Tourmaster. Jacket liner far more effective than vest IMHO - sleeve coverage makes a big difference. I figure my heated gear extends my riding season a couple weeks on either end and can make an enjoyable day out of one that has you on the edge of hypothermia. I also...

The heated grips are a treat - I see you already responded to the ones for sale on the forum (I was going to point them out). I think that a heated jacket liner (not just a vest) is far better bang-for-the-buck than a heated seat when it comes to cold weather riding. For the throttle, look...

I use ROK-straps. The non-elastic side attaches to the upper part of the "arm" of my Givi rack and the elastic side attaches to the lower part of the arm. I put the duffel in place and pull the back strap over the top and stretch the lower part up to the buckle. Trick is to get the right...

You evidently have your notifications set up to send you an email when someone replies to a thread you are following. This is an automatic email sent by the forum and you can't reply to them. You can easily change your notification settings so you are not inundated with email notifications...

Keep an eye on the cable ties. The R/R gets pretty warm and even if they don't melt, they could become brittle or chafe through. You can get stainless cable ties or maybe use stainless wire. (need something that won't corrode)

The bag and your suit even match the bike! This is mine - with the dry duffel bag...

Quite a few people do. I manage anywhere between 5 and 25 days per year. In terms of equipment etc., depends on the object (cheap accommodations vs going mainly for the camping). This will affect everything. Personally, it depends on the trip for me. If it is on a longer trip where camping...

I think it bolts through? I haven't actually had mine off so I couldn't tell you for sure. I'll have a look at some old posts. This photo was taken by @dcarver . I KNOW he has had his off~!! Look here (this should help). https://candybuttorg.ipage.com/cba/node/520 I'm sure someone who...

This is from the right side of the bike. The silver thing is the cover for the R/R. My shock in front of it is covered with a Shock Sock... Let me know if you need more photos...

Above and directly behind the rear shock. Just in front of the rubber "mudflap". This is for a Gen II
