It's a blue one. Do you need any other reason? ETA(darnitall, just saw you fixed it)

If you use the aux light switch, don't use the red wire, that is always hot. D

Ditto on the cost question (minus shipping).

My salesperson didn't have a clue. I think that is a reason he doesn't work there anymore. D

My heated gloves experience was a 6 hour sub 40deg ride in Mo and Ok in March. For starters, the gloves were gauntlet gloves and the plug was on the outside so if you ran wires down the sleeves of the jacket you then had to snake them back up over the jacket/under the gauntlet, then over the...

Article? Umm, yeah. Now it makes sense.

Please forgive my ignorance, but whats the advantage of a girder front end over stock. It would appear to lengthen the wheel base under compression, (albeit not very much) as compared to a conventional that will shorten wheel base under compression. Does it just not steepen the steering angle...

upside down mounting bracket For those that flipped the mounting bracket. Troll mentioned he has shorter bars so I was wondering if anyone else that did this mod had clearance issues with the tank at full left lock? thanks D

I'm just glad to have a bike with a side mounted radiator that works. It is hotter here this summer than it was last summer and my VFR radiator wouldn't keep the bike cool. You could hear the fan and watch the temp gauge go up. I would stop around 230 def F and let the bike cool down. This...

I need to go look at it but what if you put a spacer in between the latch and the seat, added some bumper height on the front and left the rear alone. It still might slightly lower the rear (lifting the front lowers the rear a little) so a spacer in the hook on the rear might be required. I...

Re: Interesting YES clause Yeah, after reading it again and typing it up I realized it doesn't say FINAL DRIVE 'Coma" CHAINS/BELTS OR SPROCKETS, DAMAGE DUE TO FINAL DRIVE "Coma" CHAIN/BELT BREAKAGE" We can let this thread die
