  1. Where are you headed? I have a few more honey dos to finish, maybe if I hurry...
  2. I bought this last year for my wife. She has had second thoughts on riding solo, so I think we are going to try and go a different direction (concours 14 for 2 up riding). here is the skinny on this bike: we picked it up from a distant friend last spring at 409 miles. she ,the friend, had developed some medical problems and can't ride anymore. unfortunately, before I bought it she had a slow speed spill on the bike. the tank and front fender took the damage. we spent most of last summer riding 2 up when I had the time, and trying to teach my wife how to ride. clean Alaska Title (not a scam, I'm active duty military and Alaska resident), I still owe the ban a little for it (I will pay it off before the deal). other than the 2 dents in the gas tank and scratches on the fender, the bike is almost brand new. the bike books out at 8,240 and replacement tank is $600 and fender is $200 from Honda. pictures coming tonight or in the morning.
  3. My best friend had one fail, it was not taken care of properly and the failure was due to rust. No damage to the bike, the front tire holder rusted in half.That being said, I currently use the SMR600 (I think that's right) i bought it after his failed. I already have a 20' trailer and didn't want to buy another trailer to haul the bike. I used to put the bike in the bed of the truck, but unloading by yourself is just too dangerous (IMO) even with 3 ramps. I can load or unload my bike in a matter of minutes by myself. I've only owned it since last spring (after sliding down a ramp for the last time) and it's been from here to deals gap 4 times and to georgia once. The new models don't rock as much as you would think. I also agree about the hitch, but my hitch/truck is rated for about twice the 500lbs.
  4. I would try to make it, what city? I could bring my bike as an example if needed.
  5. I carry glock 22 and 20 IWB with alien gear holster, both are full size, pretty comfortably. About 4:30ish is pretty good for me.
  6. Sorry Casper, I never knew I had a reply. I do pass thru on my way to the mountains. I'll be breaking out of the great white north as soon as I see a nice break in the weather. Maybe February?
  7. I used a set off a gsxr 600, not led but they do the trick.
