You guys alright? We sure missed it. That dude was heading straight for us and then took a turn north to Galveston/Houston. Down here in Rockport, we saw water over the Fulton Beach road yesterday and are probably 15 miles inland. Wednesday, had mandatory evacuation, then Thursday, it was...

Since Andrew's departure, anytime it's been a while since checking out the board, I'm always reluctant to go on, hoping there's no one missing. Today, talking to a friend from Ca, mentioned Meyer's seats always highly recommended by TWN. Then, tonight, finding this out. Totally stunned...

I am one of the few here that got 10k on the stock tires then 10k on the Avon Storms from the group buy. Liked them so much, bought another set heading for another 10k. Something about the harder compound on the top is meant for mileage and the softer compound on the sides for grip in the...

Paid $14,100 tt&l out the door for my 06'. $11,400 is a great price! Take it. I drive almost 3 hours to Yamaha of SA for tire changes because of the bad customer service in my area. They're on the North side of SA on 35 and would be worth the drive. You might call Robert to see if they have...

Hauled mine from FL to TX in a Dodge Dakota (6 cyl). No problems at all. Do remember that it was a lot easier unloading than loading/securing. git-r-dan :beach:

PMC - WOW! Read your post and thought about how that "Smart Tire" has done its job for me so many times now. Best add-on safety feature installed on the bike. It gives you notice as soon as you hit a 7 psi difference between front/rear pressures with an extremely bright yellow light. It has...

Condolences to family and friends. My prayers go out to you.

Corpus Christi area. If your ever up this way, holler. (it's sizzlin HOT in McAllen during the summer) I have the throttle rocker and have pondered getting the one for the left side as I'm clutchless anyway. :beach: git-r-dan

Did good. All in all, it was quite a challenge as the sprinkles of rain were keeping me from getting started up. The owner and staff were top-notch and then finally relocated me under the awning which was where it should have been set-up in the 1st place. The owner said there were lots of...

Gig's this Saturday night ... hopefully, ready for public consumption. "Paradise Key" (restaurant/bar) at Key Allegro Marina, Rockport, TX. Starts around 6:30 out on the back deck over-looking the boats. Still lots of prep ahead before Sat. Didn't get to all the request here but did get a...

Now, after several rides, I've determined a few factors that are making the ride uncomfortable. "The Pocket" is located too far forward. I sent several pictures of my riding position and believe I mentioned in the questionaire that I sit back in the seat. At 6'1", the further back I sit, the...

OK, have made three trips on the bike at about an hour at the most each way. Also, have made these trips with the pillion. Seems that I have to keep adjusting myself back on the seat from sliding forward. I've noticed applying more pressure on the handlebars keeping myself from sliding...

No question about it ... AE was the right choice. Any '08 AE forum members yet? Dreamer, you need to get you one. Sure like that darker silver. Topanga, as for future colors, I sure liked that sand color from the UK posted last year. That would be cool. git-r-dan :beach:

Thanks for the replies. Changed calves to thighs, don't think I was awake yet. We'll see how it does after a few rides. That's great news about their customer service and 1 yr. guarantee. Pics to follow soon. Going for that 1st ride.

Seat arrived late Friday night and opened the box like it was my first Christmas. The largest of the two seats ended up being the rear seat with much more padding. All the measurements and pictures were taken to make sure I received the right fit. So out to the bike my wife and I go putting...

So sorry to hear that you lost your Dad. Prayers to you and your family during this time. Stay strong.

I've put over 20k on mine and know that, if it is a normal take off with normal speed, it shifts to 2nd at 20mph and 3rd at 30mph, etc., and is butter/silk smooth with no clunks whatsoever. Why would you want to put extra wear on a clutch system trying to pull around 800#s from a dead stand...

Bob, Great news he's OK. Don't beat yourself over the head on this one. Sure agree he needs to get well quick and get back on but looks like he'll be in some rehab for a while also. You let him know we're all supporting him.

I love this bike. I have the 06AE and am going through my second set of tires with 20,000+ on the odometer. Yesterday, took a trip into town (80 miles) and am always amazed at the smoothness of shifting. It was about 57 degress and it just seems to run and shift better with the colder temps...

Believe those clamps came with the Shad trunk mounting kit.
