    ABS in the Red, along with my wallet

    Very good. Support is appreciated. Brakes working just fine as far as I can tell. Frickin' hale started coming down as I prepared for the after work ride. I barely have 100 miles on the bike from the weekend! Where is Spring? tnx again... rp

    Givi V46 lid color for '08?

    New gloss black Givi is on and it looks awesome. The contrast between gloss and the matt areas matches the side bags almost completely. Now I just have to figure a better way to wire the addmore lights. I like the Fred way better... tnx

    ABS in the Red, along with my wallet

    I rode my brand new 08A away from the dealer yesterday a very happy man indeed. The fact that it was snowing (Seattle) made the event that much more exciting. The beast is free! Anyway, turns out the ABS light blinks for a bit and then settles on red. Not a happy color as the manual says I gots...

    My opinion is that lots of folks buy expensive machines (mac and pc) without a hope of using half their potential.

    Givi V46 lid color for '08?

    Yamaha Top Case vs. Givi Top Case

    I like the Yami topcase but wonder if anyone has fitted a tie-down rack to it with any luck? Other aftermarket top box brands like GIVI have add-on racks for attaching light gear (like my tent), but I have not read of a similar option for the Yami. I know they worry about overloading a bike, but...

    Hey you guys from the state of Washington...

    Pit Bull? I wonder where the Pit Bull ranks in the freak index of beasty-freakin-ality. I don't wonder too much, my yeller lab would take a large chunk off me if I ever thought such thoughts and I wouldn't blame him. rp - Seattle
