Neoprene face mask from a ski/snowboard shop. It was great for those cold days you refuse to cage it.

is that similar to a balaclava? i've got one shipping from motorcycle-superstore now. if i plan to commute into november again, i don't want to suffer like last year...

and, pledge rocks. i get my seat really slippery too. it's easier to slide like a hardcore racer that i know i'm not...

I got a balaclava last year n it will keep you riding well into the cold weather. It keeps me toasty on the mornings there is frost on my bike when I leave work.

Bagster tank covers and snap-in tank bags.

Popular in Europe and the West Coast.

Not many seen around Ohio.

Denali LED headlights. equivalent of a standard 55W headlamp output at less than 10watts (0.75amp) each.

Not meant for replacing headlight, just as auxiliaries.

I have a D1 kit, but will probably go for a D2 kit.

a pickle.

Makes a great chain-cleaning tool. Someone posted an article testing it a while back. Works great.

And the Pit-Bull trailer restraint system. I know i metaphorically suck it off on a regular basis, but I have a nervous disposition to begin with. Transporting my bike with straps would literally have given me ulcers by now. Every time I hit a bump, I would worry that the suspension was going to compress, and the straps would go slack enough to cause one of the hooks to let go.

with the TRS, I no longer need my wife to sit on the bike while I strap it down, and once it's clipped in, I am 100% confident that it's not going to fall over mid transport.

That alone makes it worth the money, but the fact that you can do away with straps frees up a lot of trailer space too.

I had Imprez55's bike on the trailer with mine. His fell over once during loading, and even after it was securely strapped down, routing straps to their appropriate anchor points was a royal pain. Using straps on both bikes would have been a nightmare.

which one? i got the alpinestars because of its functionality, but i'm concerned because some reviews said it's really big.

and ReconRat, are those to replace your lights, or add more lighting? my stock lights are kinda lacking in the brightness department.

And my TRE (timing retard eliminator) made my bike so much more responsive on the low end and helped with cold starts

I thought my wife bought it from Iron Pony, but she picked it up at Revzilla.com also. I looked up the pictures this morning (no tag inside) and it looks like it is a ZAN and was $12. I was looking for one with the smallest seam across the top of my head.

can you route plan on the 755t?

like actual route plan, as in map your route on the computer then transfer it over to the GPS and it will give you turn by turn of what route you plotted on the PC

i ahve the 755 and it can indeed be done. I use mapquest to map a route then you can send the gpx file directly to the GPS. The only downfall is every once in awhile is that the gps doesn't like the whole route you plan and will change it. I've only added about a dozen maps and only experienced this issue once though

The Grunge Brush for cleaning the chain. The thing makes it so much easier since it has bristles on three sides that you can slide over the chain.

LOVE my grunge brush, highly suggest to all
