...had a hood fly off a late 70s Camaro on the back of a flatbed tow truck directly in front on to the right of me. I was in the #2 lane on the freeway at the time. The hood hit me straight on, as I was in the middle lane and had nowhere to go. Lucky for me that day, I was in the cage, and it...

LMAO....ROTFLMAO Bet it only takes one ride like that to retrain her!

That's it! I'm getting me a headlight modulator!

Welcome to the club Back in the Saddle. I am very familiar with that area. I grew up in Camarillo! Let the farkling begin! As for the HD owners, they are usually pretty easy to pass, since they are usually pulled over to the side of the road adding more oil!

Aasland, Dump that hunk of junk! I might be able to find a recycle place for you and sell it for scrap metal for .... say $1500. J/K .... I wonder if someone on this forum would let you ride theirs with the PCIII in it? That would answer your question definitively!

Happens frequently for me, day or night on the feejer. Have a black Cortech jacket and an 06AE. Silver helmet with graphics even. Half the time it is great, as everyone just gets over on the freeway, the other half the time it sucks, 'cuz you get that ****** that goes 54 in the flippin fast...

Let's See. My last bike was a 1978 Suzuki GS 750. At 70, it felt like it just might shake itself into a million pieces, so ....uh...yeah. I go faster. I go faster and I like it. I like feeling confident and stable enough to pass in the blink of an eye. I like keeping up with traffic on the...

Just my 2c worth, but usually those who have had problems with engine feedback have one of about three problems: 1. The gauge wire you use to run from the battery to the unit is too small 2. The path (but you have already figured that one out) of the wire, and yes, left side appears to be the...

I get 46 consistently, mixed city, highway. I have ever since the break in period was over. I went on a trip with it a few weeks ago (2-up) and the mileage only dropped down to 45, but to be honest I was riding very conservatively with a passenger, and I really do NOT (as much as I probably...

It is a sad day when we are all talking excitedly about how GREAT it is that we are paying just under $4 a gallon. I remember doing a cost-benefit analysis of getting a Honda Civic for the wife vs a Hybrid for her travel (she puts about 24-30K miles/year, and we live in BFE) back in early 2006...

I suspect it was the local delivery guy!

To my knowledge there is only one solution, and though the post was likely from 2006, I do not believe enough has changed with the 2008 model to make the procedure any different. Maybe someone with specific experience with an 08 with the Audiovox solution will post their setup (with pics would...

My Experience, I had DirectTv when they first came out, installed it myself because cable was like $90/month and DirecTV was like $29 (this was 10 years ago). Switched to Dish and HATED it for the same reason others say they did not like direcTV, the channels would take like 10 seconds EACH to...

Well, She was not happy, and neither am I, to be honest, but missing 4th vs Missing MotoGP...let's just say I was never that crazy about fireworks anyway. She was kind enough to (after only putting up a little bit of a fight) give in and let me go, but it will also depend on everyone else in...

I had a hard enough time trying to convince the wife to let me take off for a weekend with the boys. Now they put the race on a holiday!!! This is going to make it much harder (and more expensive for hotels, etc.) to attend!!! :angry2:

Yeah. We rode up that same way on Friday, stopping at the pit stop in SLO. I won some free tickets to the IMS show, and a T-shirt. The 1 is still one of the nicest highways to ride on, even though the fire took its toll. How did you like the wind up north of Big Sur? I swear I saw it PICK UP my...

That would be a GREAT first bike for a teenager. I have a 14 year old that is all about looks. This thing looks faster than it is (top speed of 75 said another site), fuel efficient, and yet economical, so as a concerned parent, this would be a perfect first bike for him. Yamaha seems to be...

LaRoo....wow, those are nice pictures! I hope you are there next year. I was unable to get the parade lap as they were sold out, but after parking on Wolf hill, I will not make that mistake again!

Wholly Smokes! I would be seriously PISSED OFF if I had things falling off my bike after only 3500 miles!!! I would seriously be taking this up with the dealership, and making them pay the replacement cost of my lost parts. For as much as we shell out for these machines, you have to be able to...

"I am just amazed at the issues I have had with this bike. I have never experienced this with any of my other bikes. Is it a Yamaha thing?" You aren't the only one amazed with the issues you have had with this bike. I too have been riding since I was a kid (dirt bikes at 8, street bikes the day...
