  1. That thing only retails in excellent condition on kbb for $5180
  2. I've been thinking about this for a while and I want to start things in motion. I what to hit all the extreme points of the contiguous United States sometime on my bike that your can drive to. These points include most northern which is Angles Inlet/Lake of the Woods Minnesota, southern most which us Key West, eastern point at West Quoddy Head/light house in Maine, western point at Cape Alava,Washington. Would also like to hit the highest and lowest points in elevation which are Mount Whitney, and Badwater Basin, Death Valley both in California. This is something I'll probably streched out over several years and ill save the longest routes for last. I'm thinking about doing the eastern most route first since it is the easiest and shortest. Not going to make it a race or an ass burner just take the time enjoy the scenes in a few points interest along the way and enjoy it. Not really wanting to camp in these trips, my thoughts are being on the road all day its nice to have a nice dry bed and a shower etc to kick back and relax in the evenings. I'm not opposed to camping it just wouldn't be my first choice. I know I've got the right bike, riding gear, and luggage, will eventually need to get a better GPS set up. There is some gavel sections in the Angles Inlet route that I would have to deal with but it's only 20 or 30 miles worth. And the out west trips would require oil changes and maybe tires mid trip. Main thing I would need I is a partner, I know my wife would not want to so this and for safety reasons and to split the cost of hotel rooms ect somebody to go with me would be beneficial. Would anybody else consider making this journey with me our at least parts of it? The shorter trips I would like to knock out in the next 1 or 2 years the out west trips im probably looking more like 3 or 4 years out but i would just like to get things in the thought process. Thoughts? Input? Suggestions?
  3. I finally got it to power back up and did a flimware update (which I did Friday too) and all seems good for now. I switched units with her so I can use it all week to work and back. We will see
  4. when I say hers died I mean the unit is dead the battery is fully charged
  5. I've used mine for 2 days now with no problems, my wife use hers for the first day and it died. Rode down to Cabelas it was working fine, came out of the store and it turned on just fine, a couple mile down the rode I lost contact with her. So I puled over and looked at it and it was dead, I played with it for a few min and got it turned back on. A couple miles later, dead again and now I cant get it to do anything. Only thing I can get light up is when the battery is charging. I even tried the rest pin button on the back.
  6. i was on my phone so I just tapped the number to send it a text, so really I never even read it
  7. I got a nice ride in today out around kersocton, never rained a drop
  8. Well I found me a lid. Its not the quietest but it will be better than the exo400. I decided I wanted a modular and there was a short list. But in the end the only 3 that fit me were the Shoei Neotech..but price was way too high...Shoei Mutitech but it didn't have the top gun sun visor and I didn't like where the strap hit me.. and the Nolan N90..it fit perfect, love the ratchet chin strap, has the contoured visor for a better seal, top gun style sun visor, blue tooth speaker pocket and it actually was the cheapest option coming in at just under $200
  9. $30 prescription sun glasses from www.Zennioptical.com ...FTW!!!!!!

  13. Never got ahold of him so I guess he's gotta come pick it up now. I almost called Carl to see if he still wanted to come get it but I didn't want to be a dick about it to Blitz
  14. No I texted it... I got the Verizon message that it was a land line. ..lol
  15. Oh my God I didn't even make the connection. ..lol.. of course I wasnt singing it
  16. I rode down to the pony today and I brought his tank bag with me but I'm unable to get ahold of him to see if he wants to come here to pick it up. Anyone could message him or text him and let him know I'm here or message me and I'll tell you to tell him my number just thought I would save him a trip. I'll check my phone several times while I'm here
