  1. The bolts for the RAM ball are the same width as the front tank bolts. I just bought slightly longer bolts. It fits nicely right above the top clamp and doesn't block my view of any of the gauges.
  2. See, I have the exact opposite opinion. I've been using CoPilot on my S2 Samsung with Bluetooth to my SENA since last season. Bluetooth integration is seamless. Turn by turn, phone calls, and the mp3 player integration work perfectly. Hell, the re-route is quicker than my old Garmin. It was a little tougher to pre-program routes until I found RouteConverter for the PC which saves in .trp format for CoPilot. The only issue I have is not being able to manipulate it through my gloves. And even then, sometimes a long press will work.
  3. Gah! My form is horrible!!! LOL
  4. Thereabouts. Blue Ridge Parkway around Little Switzerland NC.

    Wow. Never even noticed when this one went up. Thanks guys. Killbam, they are aftermarket. They're the Sato rearsets.
  6. I spent a long weekend running NC, and east TN mountain roads with friends. I'm a little annoyed because I thought the camera was recording while running Deal's Gap, but of course it wasn't. But there's still some decent video of some great roads.
  7. I'd like to know too. I got ~7K out of my PR2s. I don't ride hard, but I do a lot of flat road commuting. I've gotten 10k on a cruiser tire --- once. ---19k just boggles the brain. I don't get anywhwere near 7k out of any tire I've tried. Much less 10k. Share the secret!!!
  8. +1 Great bunch of guys and gals. That don't have any 15 tooth sprockets in stock... 6 to 8 week wait!!! And Jake Wilson doesn't have them either.

    Wow. I didn't think they'd make you tape your windscreen.

    VFR mods?

    I love going fast on a "slow" bike. And since I'm above the 40 year mark I appreciate the comfort that comes with the versatility. For exhaust I just did this. It made a world of difference without being absurdly loud. As was mentioned before, getting the suspension setup right is key. It really doesn't matter what you do with the stock suspension, it's not going to be good enough. I've got the Race Tech springs and valves in front and an Ohlins in back and it was a night and day transformation. I can completely trust the front end now and not have to deal with the rear wallowing around. And that right there would make a huge difference in the really tight stuff. And the best thing you can do is sign up for a couple of track days. The confidence you get there is directly translated to the street. IMHO, there are few things more satisfying than being confident enough in your bike to keep up with, or get around, literbikes that are 100 lbs lighter with 70 or more hp.
  11. Thanks guys. That was a fun day.
  12. Allright. Once of these days we're going to have to hook up and ride. We're in Brentwood. My GF and I run two up on the plateau all the time, but don't get to the skyway near enough.
