Not my bike, but I did the same thing. That's a Tylt inductive charger. Keeps the phone secure, while charging. Use CoPilot with offline maps. Easy enough to find a cheap old smart phone.

I'll admit there was an intimidation factor my first time. I hadn't been on the forum much and didn't know anyone. Thought I would be mocked for my lack of skill. Turns out you don't have to be a mechanic or engineer to go to one of these. If you doubt your ability or skill, there is always...

I think I cut my angle bracket a little more than yours. You drilled a new hole where I just cut the bracket closer to the first hole. I also used a countersunk bolt so that surface was flat. But to get it into that position, I had to loosen it to get it to rotate and then tighten it...

Sorry guys, no 2016 for me. I decided to experiment with the dip switches. The #7 switch, which is the Tach Source Select was Off. That means it was set to ECM instead of Coil. Flipped that back to On and that was consistent with this install. Took it for a ride and now the cruise is rock...

So I'll tack on my install to what John did and some of the things I observed. It gave me something to do during Tech Day. First of all, a big thanks to John for his initial write-up. This would have been much more challenging without it. I ordered the 13 Position 090 MT Connector from...

I think Bill forgot his camera. My only real picture, but I think it says a lot.

Spoken like a true AFD.

Do either of you know a good divorce attorney?

Made it back about 2:30 PM. Cruise control is still misbehaving, but that'll likely be a project for the next Tech Day. A chance to do some homework on what the problem could be and be better prepared with things to do. WynPro plates are on the list I think. Thanks to Andy and Sooze, you are...

Got to work early so getting out early shouldn't be an issue. On the road by 3 PM is the plan. I haven't decided which way I'm going yet. There was a lot of construction on 75 last weekend, so I'm leaning towards 69 through Fort Wayne. Same same as far as Google is concerned. We'll see what...

My fault. I'm thinking a Friday arrival is going to be much more likely. Hoping to go in early and leave early for work. If I can get on the road by 3:30, I can probably get there by 8:30-9:00. Nick's wimping out. He doesn't have anything that needs to be done to his bike and doesn't want to...

New 2017 color. Now everyone's happy!

My plan is to not sleep on the ground, outside, or anywhere that isn't temperature controlled. Hotels aren't exactly in walking distance. I didn't think I'd be the only one going to a hotel. If there's room indoors, I may just bring an air mattress with me so I can participate in evening...

Andy, you could have a 2016 by Tech Day. Salvage what we can off from your old bike onto the new one and both bikes would already be where we need them. Great report. I would love to take the wife on one of these trips.

Tech Day cemented my appreciation for this forum and the members of it. I had poked around the forum doing research but didn't post all that much. I had a cruise control that needed to be installed without skills, tools, or patience to do so. I saw the Tech Day post and sheepishly (heh...

I'll have the soldering iron and good selection of heat shrink. I've got to do an inventory of what wire I have available. I think I have some black & red 14 AWG from last Tech Day. Don't think I have much other than that. I'll check when I get home, but having too much wire is better than...

In all likelihood, I'll be staying at naskie's house on Friday night in Commerce Twp, and then we'll ride down in the morning. You're welcome to ride down with us. It depends on when I get out of work on Friday and what the weather looks like. I'm not a fan of riding at night. It's about a 5...

Think I'll wait until Spring Tech Day for tires. I'm probably close now, but its unlikely I'll see the mileage to wear them the rest of the way before the snow flies.

I get that. If I can find one, I can find the other. I think this is it. https://www.easternbeaver.com/Main/Elec__Products/Connectors/090_Connectors/090_connectors.html#MT But its a minimum order of $20 and it ships from Japan. I'd like to find something state-side if I can just to get it...
