    Wrecked the '15 already

    Really, you're riding your motorcycle to the Doctor while your ribs are broken and sore? Hmmmmm I don't mean to judge, but I am not sure I would do that. I have had broken ribs, and I recall that any sudden jolt would make me cringe.

    Wrecked the '15 already

    I am so sorry to hear of this news. I am glad to hear that you are mostly alright though. The rib will heal. Eventually time will lessen the sting of this unfortunate event. You'll get better and the bike will too. Still, I know that at this time, it still hurts physically and emotionally...

    Mapping software

    The nice thing about being able to see your route in street view is that you can tell (pretty accurately) whether or not your route is taking you on dirt roads. Well, I like leaving dirt roads out of my routes anyway. BaseCamp was sort of a chore for me to learn, but now that I have been using...

    Front wheel lift by Venom

    Perhaps, but is it up there long enough for you to be able to remove the front wheel? I'd like to see that ;-) There have been alot of interesting comments on this thread. For me the jury is still out although Niehart's technique seems favorable to me.

    That's odd.....my 2014 ES has the hollow spot under the triple tree.

    Front wheel lift by Venom

    Has anyone used this type of a lift? There are several out there but I wanted to make sure that the one we get will lift the front of the bike high enough to get the wheel off. The one I was looking at was the Venom one...

    Gen III Mirror & Broken Sub-Frame

    Yes, it was a swag door prize at one of the EOM's. It has been in our garage for quite a while and I always thought it was a cool thing.

    Gen III Mirror & Broken Sub-Frame

    I have edited the first post to show more photos and to show what I did to mend the crack. I did end up buying the mirror sub-frame, but I felt it was worth a try to mend it first. Some may agree (and some may not) on how I fixed the sub-frame. I am just showing what I did. I currently have...

    Techspec pad for lower fairing behind front wheel ?

    I think Fred W may have used 3M 90000 Spray Film on the triangle piece behind the wheel. You may shoot him a pm to see how that is working for him. We have used the spray 3M on other areas such as the side bags. It works great. My bike had a tip over and the spray alleviated all damage to the...
