  1. I tried installing a ZG screen ~5 years ago and at that time many people were having trouble with fitment (breaking tabs) during installation. Same thing happened for me (they replaced it and I sold it). I went with a Puig screen and love it (no fitment issues and does a decent job of wind management). The ZG screen is more of a smoke color and the Puig is more of a dark ink color. Just my $0.02.
  2. I agree...India Pale Ale (in limited quantity) does help with the procedure. Cheers, R.
  3. 100% Engine Ice...it is very efficient at gathering and dissipating heat. What I mean is that when you stop on hot days the temp will rise fairly quickly and then when you get airflow going, it cools back down fairly quickly.
  4. Mine was delivered today and can't wait to get it on the bike! Thanks Seb! R
  5. Deposit sent! Thanks Seb!
  6. We're getting close! Come on gang! R.
  7. You can count me in! R.
  8. That's the one that I have and really like it. It's been on my bike for about a year and has not faded or clouded.
  9. All great things mentioned here. After you take care of any Preventative Maintenance, have cloths/rain gear for most weather situations and the aforementioned credit card and phone you're good to go. Once you get on the road, enjoy the sights and don't worry about the rest. Stop at the diner that has all the pick-up trucks and not McDonald's or some other chain. Take the back roads...it's all part of the adventure. After this trip, you'll feel better about even longer trips. Remember, they patrol the Dragon pretty hard. Be sure to have your "cool" look on when you pass the Killboy camera (not implying that I do look cool in photo). Cheers, R.
  10. Thanks for the find Seb (and the clarification Dutchy...I was also hung up on the size difference). Cheers, R.
  11. I found mine on eBay (it had been listed for about 5 hours...I got lucky when I decided to search). The person that posted it had it listed as "VFR Rear Wheel" without the year or "8 spoke" in the title. Make sure your ebay notification will find all of them just in case. Be patient and good luck with he search. R
  12. Got mine also! Thank you! Cheers, R.
  13. I have the Puig screen and really like it. It is more of the "dark ink" color as opposed to "smoke" for the ZG double bubble. I also went with the Harris hugger since my bike is ABS. If you decide on the Red Fox hugger...I have a brand new, never installed one I could sell you (it is also from last year, so it's the "newer" one that are not supposed to crack, etc). Feel free to PM me. Cheers, R.
  14. Come on last caller...I want my new brake lines!
  15. Sign me up...I had to bleed my brakes anyway, might as well upgrade the lines (that's at least my flimsy excuse). Thanks for setting this up! R.
