    Effect of 2005 clutch slave cylinder on 2007

    Never a Gen I owner but I can tell you in stop & go traffic the Gen II slave cyclinder was wearing on me. Replaced and now have a much more liveable clutch pull. As for the throttle, after 1400 miles, this is really a big disappoint for me. I have the G2 tube and compared to any other bike I...

    Where do you put your IPod?

    +1 AirClick. I do think the AirClick uses a fair amount of power even when not using the remote that much. Mine seems to drain the IPod in about 3 hrs and I dont use the remote that much.

    Thank You

    I am with you on this one. Initially this really pissed me off. Yamaha is the only maker that wouldn't let me test ride ( asked three dealers ) and I have owned bikes ( and taken many test rides ) from all the major brands. I don't buy the insurance issue either as here in IL you just sign a...

    Scorpion Helmets

    400 here as well. I like it and no fog problems at all ( but it is new ), a little noise ( but I wear plugs ). The 700 and 400 are essentially the same. The 400 is poly based. Motorcyclist did a comparison test and the 400 scored a little better than the 700 and it is cheaper. They have a...

    Wife getting better after the accident....

    +1 If the ticket was for too fast for conditions ( or some equivlent ) I doubt you can get out of it. If they can prove that a accident occured then no matter the speed or conditions you didnt have the vehicle under control and that is what the ticket is for.

    Want a Black Cherry AE?

    I would do it. I wish I would have thought about trying this when I picked up a BC. I have always liked the Silver the best.

    Looks like the '06+ VStream is finally available

    Called to order one from University today and they informed me they will not sell anymore because there is something wrong with them and they dont fit right. All are going back. Saga continues ....

    My daughter is the victim of a Myspace hacker

    I know that Corporation electronic assets are governed just like any other asset. Meaning there can be legal action taken for malicious acts. At the very least I would contact mySpace and maybe the people who host the website and let them know that this individual has illegally accessed...

    Harley's mission statement - The video!

    A year ago when I first started considering a FJR I was amazed by the amount of Harley bashing that seems to consume the FJR community ( both this board and others ). The HD forums I am on almost never talk about other bikes. Mostly because I think HD owners don't generally care about other...

    Tank Pad

    Anyone tried Tankslapper? Complete kit of 3M and some other film that covers much of the bike. Tankslapper Kit Price is $45. Been thinking about trying this as I am already kicking the bags a little too much.

    HT Air Overpants

    Thanks for the feedback guys. This is a great idea. I can sometimes miss the forest for the trees :rolleyes: I will order a pair, try at home, and return if not a workable solution. Changing at work is also a possibiity just my second choice.
