    Can you see me now? (Mirrors on my 07)

    MultiVex mirrors Some here have strong dislike of them and voice such dislike at every opportunity, but they are an option. Probably the easiest to install, but cosmetically leave something to be desired. Function vs. Looks...kinda like my bright yellow Curious George suit I wear.

    Does riding make you go bald?

    Now I was told by a barber, that hair grows in as well as out. If it grows in and hits brain, it turns grey. If it grows in and hits nothing, it falls out!

    no, but perhaps balding makes you go ride... ..you start realizing life is short.

    ok, whats the tip about the plastic fastners?

    OK, I'll help I took **** a year ago for asking the same question.. In the center of the plastic fastener there is a smaller area. push this inward about a 1/4 inch, with tip of something small, ie small allen wrench or paperclip, then the whole thing will come out towards you with your...

    My Effort

    I would agree with Black's positioning. I found a 15 degree back angle was the most comfortable for the pillion. What angle is yours? I did not need a brace for mine - the weld is stonger than the adjacent steel if done properly. It does not bend with acceleration. Also, I figure if in a...

    Valentine V1 radar audio hook-up help needed!!

    If I recall, you have to buy the adapter from Autocom. Everything else is in the V1 box - unless you want remote display and that is extra. All that stuff will sit under the seat (near the autocom unit and your power source) Only the long phone line will thread to the front of the bike where...

    Legal Personal Defense on a Bike

    The bigger "hand sized" units easier to use especially with gloves on. A maglite flashlight holder will allow mounting of these in fixed location. visit local police/safety supply store and talk with them - often will sell to public; cannot take into canada Have to use with intent - can't be...
