https://www.mslmagazine.co.uk/tested-jw-speaker-8790-adaptive-led-motorcycle-headlight-review/ So, I know it's a bit of a zombie thread, but I found a solution other than buying a BMW. Also, I know it won't fit a stock (or not stock) VFR, but it'll fit my xVFR. It's also not cheap, but, I've had their original 8700 for at least 6 years now and it's been a great light. So, I guess, if anyone has suggestions for what to do with a single, non-adaptive, 7 inch round light, I might be looking for suggestions. . . maybe I'll craigslist it or see if I can find a local café bike nut or something?

I got the PBL14612 on no problem (and no leaks) so, I /think/ the newer style seems okay? I'm not 100% sure about the difference though. . . The first picture is definitely what the one I installed looks like, and I think the second picture (with the logo and different views) is the 'old style' ?

Confirmed your plans yet? I was looking at some of the reviews on these on Amazon and on the CalSci site and it looks like they were redesigned recently and may not work?

100% not a joke ;) An electric skateboard is a pretty much exactly what it sounds like, skateboard with a motor and batteries. Speeds and ranges seem to vary from 15-40mph and 7-25miles on a charge. Evolve makes my current favorite boards, but I can't bring myself to pay for one of their newest ones right now. But, other people can, and they're selling the previous boards *shrug* I'm definitely aware this is a motorcycle forum, I've been here for years. It also happens to have a lot of helpful, intelligent people who've dealt with purchasing stuff that could be risky if someone were shady. Speaking of which, thank you for the ebay tip. That's exactly the kind of thing I was wondering about :D For more electric shenanegins, this guys blog can be a pretty fun read too (also not VFRs though, questionably motorcycle related): https://electricbike-blog.com/

No problems with someone hitting buy it now before you do? Or is there a different way to make it work out for an agreed price? I do like the additional protection offered by some sites. PayPal seems to have good buyer protection, with the exception of the exemption of 'motorized vehicles.' I'm hoping I don't have to find out details about what's considered a motorized vehicle.

I've had great treatment and honesty from VFRD members, but I don't know of any selling an electric skateboard right now ;) Still more than happy with the front end purchase though :D

So, I'm actually looking to purchase another electric skateboard, but it's online. Basically, I'm looking for general tips for making a transaction smooth when you're dealing with expensive items and can't meet face to face. Sorry if I picked the wrong sub forum... and, thanks ahead of time for the replies.

I don't have the same aftermarket dash that you guys do, but I do have a 4th gen with the factory speed sensor working. I think your problem might be related to the number of signals sent by each unit. The magnet will send one signal per wheel revolution, so the speedo just mutiplies whatever you said your tire circumfrance is by the number of revs it's getting and does some math. I don't remember the exact number, but the stock speed sensor sends something like 7 signals per wheel revolution. So, I had to tell the dash I've got (acewell) that I've got really tiny tires. It still has a cap to how fast it will count though, and the speedometer never exceeds 82mph or so now. If I moved back to the magnet, it'd read fine, but for me, basically I know I'm speeding if it says 82. . . So, might have to do with how fast the dash can count. Love both your bikes by the way, they look amazing. *EDIT* I almost forgot, my stock speed sending unit was bad when I got the bike, so when I tried to hook it up at first, I got no signals at all. It should send a pulse similar to the magnet, so, if you're not getting anything at all, maybe see if someone you know will let you borrow their speed sending unit for a bit. I think there's just two bolts and one plug that connect it to the bike.

So, the stock reservoir / master cylinder is what I'd like to replace, something like the brake setup seems like it might be worthwhile. Anyone know about switching different parts around for it?

Can't check mine, no factory dash. Sorry. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-N900A using Tapatalk

When I hold the clutch in, it very slowly moves towards engaging with the lever held in. It usually doesn't engage, and squeezing the lever a couple times returns it to 'normal' but it's pretty awkward to start moving without knowing where the friction zone will be. I'd consider rebuilding it, but I'd rather replace it with something similar to the brake side reservoir. I'll snap a picture of the bars when they finally let me out of here. For now though, looks something like this:

Is it possible that your bike and/or dash aren't originally UK spec'd?
