Higgin

Beer in hand and watching Chitty Chitty Bang Bang. Eh, the kids are still awake after the fireworks. Kind of hard to be mad while watching Chitty. I went online to buy the bolts that got stripped. Ron Ayers shipping cost more than the damn bolts. Going back to the Chitty Chitty on the tube.

Thanks all for the more detailed instructions.

Wow! I have not seen that movies since I was probably 8 years old! I had totally forgot about it, but I now reember liking it a lot when I was young. Hope you get the brake pedal figured out; I'll probably be back to look through this thred in a month or two as this is the next mod my bike needs. Once I got my corbin and heli-bars on, the pegs just are too high up now on long rides. The corbin seems at least a couple inches lower than the stock seat.

Hey seb.....I might be interested. Could you please pm me the details? Thanks!

New Zumo 660 released at CES in Vegas. It is on the Garmin stie.

Figures, I just get the 550 and start using it and a newer, better, cheaper model comes out - Damn-it :huh:

Newer and better maybe, but cheaper........I don't think so, at least according to what I've read....

"The Garmin Zumo 660 is expected to ship in Q1 2009 for a pricey $799.99. "

It does look like a nice unit though......but that is a LOT of money!

Work'n on making them better, (Brighter).

Thanks for the link. That was before my time here on VFRD. I do really like the idea though. I was thinking about doing the mirrors with signals built in, but I like this idea better. I think I'll have to give it a try sometime soon. Unless I missed it in that link, i didn't see what kind of leds you used, or where they came from. Any extra info would be awesome! Thanks!

And thanks for the mirror extenders, Lobster. I bought an extra set for my friends' 6th gen and put them on as a surprise. He is super happy with them, and so am I. Altho, being super happy with them when its icy and 0 dergrees out involves sitting on our bikes in the garage making VROOOM VROOOM sounds and being able to see the garage door and not my elbows. :lol: Nice product!

SO has anyone had luck modding this for an 06 yet??

Rivcyko, is it just me or an optical illusion, or are your extenders clear with a light in them? If so, thats a nice idea instead of mirrors with turnsignals..... :thumbsup:

I remember seeing this bike for sale on ebay like 4 -5 months ago. I agree, the keyless start is cool, but I can't imagine it would come i nthat handy, except for the "cool" factor.
