Comments are right on the money. Thank you. But. Hahaha, I have many more farkles than the ones listed in this thread. I was just focusing on my refit project. Also on the goodies list are: Phids lighting with custom switchgear Upgraded stator Multiple powerlets for gerbings gear Heated...

I'm loving the comments on this thread. Thanks everyone. I should note that the genesis of this thread was for me to refit my '05 and explore the feasibility of using a tablet to simplify my cockpit set. Where I landed after doing more homework is a slightly different place... Up upgraded my...

You can put Ram style ball mounts on either handlebar control pod. They come in a number of configurations (single or dual balls, etc.)

Yeah, my issue was with the bead connector. I ended up trying to pry it open with a diagonal wire cutter. Unfortunately, the bead broke and I lost one link in the chain. I successfully attached in using the next link. The chain has almost no slack at this point. Hopefully it will operate ok...

Okay, fellow farklers. It's time for a project update. Parts have been coming in and I've been working on this for the last couple of days. A bit broader context... My cockpit upgrades are part of an overall bike refit that began two years ago. At that time I installed an all new Ohlins...

They made this transition in aircraft 20 years ago. Time for motorcycles!

And, sorry for the misspelled thread title. It's an Audiovox. For some bloody reason my spell checker likes it the other way ;-)

Greeting all, At the suggestion of a prior post, I've diagnosed that the likely culprit of a broken cruise control is a failed servo. And, thanks again to this board I found Murphs kits and secured a replacement servo. I'm in the middle of the install and am now recalling the many steps I did...

I think the new Sena 20S is supposed to have even longer run time due to its new, more power efficient bluetooth protocol...

I just ordered the servo replacement from Murphskits. The problems I had with my CC sound exactly like the described servo failure. If this install works, it will be a huge win and not that much money. The original install was a lot of work I care not to repeat. Looking forward to getting the...

Gents, Thank you again for the input. I have plenty of time to experiment with my upgrades, so I plan to test various configurations and report back. I decided to purchase a Sena 20s and Garmin 590 with touratech cradle as the base components for the upgrade. This will replace a Zuma 550 and...

I'm vertically challenged and am always looking for high quality products. About 7 years ago I bought a pair of the Daytona Mstar boots. Crazy wonderful quality and they offer some added height. I'll have the same pair another 10 years. Best footwear I've ever owned and I've tried MANY different...

All good points. I do use radar and have played with numerous setups over the years. The last time I almost gave up on radar I was 20 miles from home on a 3,000 mile journey and got a ticket. UGGGH! I've largely opted out of audio-based signal alerts for radar. Too many false alarms that...

dudeckp... I love your cockpit, but will likely not go down this road. My goal in utilizing a tablet is cockpit simplification, not to augment the typical GPS setup with another ancillary screen. I'm hoping to simplify screens for the things I rely on and use most -- GPS/route planning and...

Okay, I plan to experiment... have placed orders for an upgraded Garmin (590) with touratech mount and Sena 20s. I'll compare functionality with existing autocom, etc. and will report back. Looking forward to losing some of the wiring clutter. I'll wait another few years for a more radical...

Twigg, I think you're right on the money and on the right path with an upgrade path for me. I need to learn about Sena. I also want to make sure my new setup is two-up friendly. I need intercom functionality, passenger music and sometimes I use radar, too but have been using visual aides for...

Great question! I have a garmin 550 that is tired.. it has some winking out problems and doesn't integrate music as nicely as I'd like. In replacing my GPS, I'd like to have more capable audio control that is ideally bluetooth based so I can reduce the wiring complexity on the bike. I have...

Greetings fellow farklers... I have a 2005 that I heavily customized shortly after getting my new machine. It's been updated a couple of times, but I fear some of my electronics are getting long in the tooth. I'm wondering if I can simplify wiring and setup by using a tablet-based cockpit for...

I have an '05 with 26k on it and its ready for fresh kit front and rear. I'd go for a GP suspension setup but I'm too lazy to go to Portland for the install. Anyone have experience with suspension work at Desert Valley Powersports in Prosser? What are the recommended top shelf components? Mogan

Uhhh, actually YES. I have the pulsing LES brake lights. But, I never had problems before... two+ years of CC use. Will do. Will do.
