    Dont ever ride............

    I'm with you. Coming back from the IMS in Atlanta last week, the entire ride back to Memphis was a pain in the ass. Wind was a constant 30-35 mph, with big gusts every few minutes for good measure. What a PITA. I was thinking I'd rather it was raining than this wind. My head felt like a...

    Atlanta Motorcycle Show 2/24/07

    I'll also be there, but not sure if I can make it by 1pm. I'll be riding, come hell or high water. Gonna stay at the Marriott right there and go watch a little Supercross Saturday night and ride back to Memphis on Sunday. I'll try and catch up with the gang.

    How hot is too hot..........

    I mounted my datel voltmeter and (2) heat-trollers in the "A" panel. I just ran the bike to operating temp and all my wires and relay are quite hot from the radiator hose and stuff under the panel. Wires were hot to the touch and felt very soft, but no evidence of any melting. There's also a...

    Arai RX7 Corsair

    I have one and love it. I've been buying my Arais from www.theservicepavilion.com. Great people to deal with, good pricing and they usually attend to Motorcycle Shows and provide custom fitting, which is well worth it. They also stock a bunch of parts for Arais, along with shields, etc, etc.

    Mine also reads 7 x 700. I'll install this week-end and hopefully the weather will cooperate enough for me to test ride.

    2006 corrosion

    How true. I'm also an avid dirt rider and my wife and daughter just can't understand why my new bikes get taken apart before the first ride. They're grown accustomed to seeing dirtbikes in pieces but were daunted / scared / perplexed when they saw a new '00 BMW K1200LT apart a few years back...

    Heated Grips Summary

    FJRVFR, How did you slip your new grips on? I changed grips on my dirtbikes 100+ times and usually squirt a little WD40 in the new grips, slip them on and twist wire. I wouldn't think that's be a good idea with the heaters. What did you use for lube and make sure the grips don't slip? Thanks,

    Steering Head

    I took the opportunity to perform this service while my forks are off at GP and was pleasantly surprised to find a whole bunch of grease in there. So no service needed.............!

    Hitachi Connectors

    How much load can a typical Hitachi connector handle? I'm wiring my heated grips and want to make sure I don't fry the connectors. Thanks,

    Getting custom earplugs / speakers

    I've never worn ear plugs and always used helmet speakers / microphone that came with whatever system I was using at the time. I've decided to take the plunge and get custom molded speakers for my Starcomm. For those of you with a similar set-up, how did you wire your microphone? Thanks,
