  1. Do they offer accessory coverage now?  I switched to Rider from Progressive and saved about 50% on my insurance bill, but the one thing I liked about Progressive was the $3,000 accessory coverage they included.  When I started my Rider policy, they were only allowing accessory coverage on cruisers and I couldn't see any way to add it to a sport bike.  I need to renew soon - if they now allow accessory coverage on sport bikes, I need to add that ASAP.

  2. Huh, TIL that inboxes fill up!  I would never have noticed, my bad.

     

    I'll be there as long as I'm confident that the Daytona will behave for the entire day.  After all the electrical trouble I had last season (that is now all fixed), I'll lose my shit if I get stranded yet again.  It has been running great this season despite a tapping coming from the intake/fuel injectors, which I am told is a normal Triumph triple thing but I plan to take things apart and inspect them for peace of mind over the next two days.  As long as everything looks good and is back together by Sunday, I'll be there.

  3. Just got back home finally. Bike died again at 16 and Cherry Valley, managed to push it over to the Speedway and called for a flatbed. Going to spend the rest of the day tearing into this thing and testing every electrical bit I can, starting with the regulator/rectifier.

    Thanks to everyone who helped get it push started and I apologize for holding the ride up. Hope you all have/had fun on the ride today and that everyone makes it home safely.

  4. Who said anything about that? I still have the scooter for street duties. :D

    I'm just doin a little wheelin n dealin. For the next few months I'll be the local used Triumph dealer, lol. Look for more bikes for sale in the near future.

    Any part-outs? I need track plastics...

  5. I used the 5x9 to drag my Daytona home from Charlotte, NC. You can definitely feel that it's a hefty beast, but the tie-down points are rock solid and even with no wheel chock the bike stayed firmly planted despite my novice trailering skills and the occasional pothole or nasty expansion joint. Since I live in an apartment with no place to store a trailer of my own, I'll be using these (or the MC trailer if i get lucky and they're in stock) to go to track days for the foreseeable future. Overall it isn't a bad option.

  6. Alright guys....meeting at the McDs in Buckeye Lake at 10:20. Leave there no later than 10:30 to head for KFC in Newark. We'll leave there around 11am and hit the route.

    Hoping to be back into Newark area by 2:30ish.

    I'll meet you all at the KFC. 161/16 is a much more direct route from my part of Cbus.

  7. This must have been a priority for longer than just since Thursday. Two weeks ago I was on 70 east between 71 and 270 - you know, where they have that totally useless construction zone where there isnt any actual construction - and there were 4 cops with people pulled over.

    Time to pay the driving tax, folks.

  8. Yes. A couple of ways to do it. You can export from google maps but that is a PITA. Or you can put in the basic destinations into the phone program and then drag the route around anyway you want. Doable but a bit annoying on a small phone.

    Excellent! I figured it would do that or it wouldn't have been mentioned here, but I'd hate to blow ten bucks on an app (the most expensive one I'd have bought to date) only to find out that it didn't do what I wanted. Thanks!

    *edit*

    Downloaded the Premium version and this looks like it is exactly what I needed :D

  9. Also Co-Pilot Live for Android and IPhone is very good. I have that one. Best part is I have maps for all of North America on my phone. I don't need a data connection just a view of the sky for a GPS lock.

    Does Co-Pilot Live let you build routes with a bunch of waypoints beforehand and guide you from waypoint to waypoint on the road?

    I've tried this with the stock Navigation/Maps app on Android but after more than a few waypoints it freaks out and doesn't know how to handle the routing. I'd rather use the phone I already own and a 10$ app to follow a 300+ mile route for a day than buy a standalone GPS unit.
