  1. Considering I just ordered and have not gotten it let alone used it, no I have no experience with it.
  2. Based on the recommendation of an OR member that isn't a dumbass (amazingly there really is one), I just ordered some 'Bike Bright'. He uses it for just this purpose and swears by it.
  3. So what does everyone do to get off the rain grime from the hard to reach places, and the undercarriage?
  4. I would suggest knitting. Lots of hot Grandma's do that, you could get lucky.
  5. I bought Fred's videos. Really helpful.
  6. Well that fucking sucked. Saturday took the wheels off to get new tires. I added a hidden receiver for a cooler rack under the rear fender so that had to come off. Sunday I put the new tires on, then put the receiver back on. Snapped a bolt that goes into a block that is welded to the trunk brace. Good half inch sticking out but it wouldn't budge. So I needed to heat it, but it's right up against the right saddle bag. So that had to come off. To get that off I had to pull the seat, two panels below the seat. The backrest so I could pull all three trunk panels off....then I had to unhook all the shit in the saddle bags. Manual release cable that goes to the left bag and a manual release cable for the trunk. FM antenna, GPS antenna and a fucking Bluetooth antenna for the passenger because it's too far to the front one I guess. Heated the bolt and it came right out. That took all of Sunday afternoon and night. Monday I chased the threads and got the receiver back on. From 5 PM until now to put it all back together.
  7. At this point I think your best bet is to get a new Goldwing and join the GWRA. Lots of old people in that group I am told. They know all the best places to go eat. Plus some of them have trikes!
  8. You have to join and involve yourself in as many groups as you can to find one that fits your style. No other way to do it.
  9. Kaw FI does this when a battery goes bad. Even running if the battery has low voltage the ECU will shut down.
  10. I will give you 10 bucks to stiff Tim and sell the bag to the midget.
  11. If I were selling this I would raise the price right about now.
  12. That may because you are a regular member instead of supporting. Let's page @Casper he can fix it.
  13. You can fix that. Account then Account Settings. Change your display name. Your login name will be the misspelled one bit it will display to everyone else correctly.
  14. Motorcycling is an outdoor sport. Sometime it rains and sometimes it's hot.
  15. There are no rules here. Hell I just told the owner of the board I was going to shoot him with his own gun after I bought it from him. This could have been a cool thread with places to eat all over the place. A reference these for every one. But now you 's ruined. You will fit right in here. We pretty much fuck every thread up. No race suit for you this weekend, I got to swap out tires. Next weekend.
  16. You fuckers are supposed to post pics of your food ffs.
  17. Unknown. At 5k now, will make 8 or maybe a bit more. But leaving on a 4k trip in two weeks and since @JustinNck1 won't be there to watch my tires gonna play it safe.
  18. Good thing my shit smells like new leather, he will never know.
  19. And we know you are happy with that.
  20. I would feel a heck of a lot better if we knew for sure that this thing actually fit you. I ride right through where you live all the time when I take weekend bike runs. How about we meet, I would bet I will be down there this weekend.
  21. It really does look brand new. Even still smells like new leather. It is an IXS Camaro I am seeing them for 300 at IP and Amazon. 150.
  22. Pull the plugs after a decent run. Should be mocha brown, about the color of @NinjaDoc Black or wet too rich. White, too lean. But yes, unhook that thing and try that. With only exhaust and no intake mods you probably don't need it.
