    Continental vs. Avon

    I'm thinking I will. I'm thinking of going with the Conimotion. Even if they need replaced a little sooner it would take two sets to equate to the Avons. The research that I have found hasn't shown in difference is regards to safety.

    Starcom1 Advance Motorcycle Intercom Review

    My dad and I just got these for our trip to Savanna in a week. At low speed my dad could hear me fine but at highway speed all he could hear was that I was transmitting and could not understand what I was saying. I tried to adjust where my mic was but that didn't seem to help. Any setting...

    Knee Pain After Riding

    I get sharp pain in my right knee after about 30 min. of riding. I noticed that if I make slight adjustments left and right on the seat that it eases the pain. I also do some of the leg extensions discussed by others.

    What do you all do for a living?....

    I am called a schedule planner. I work for one of the leading fractional owner aircraft companies. Basically rich people say I want to go from A to B and I find the airplane and crew members to get them there. I agree with Chillin the biggest girlymen are in his and my profession.

    How and when do you surf the Forum?

    I work 12 hour shifts over night and have the forum up most of the time. Right now our main computer program is undergoing maintenance so I have nothing to do but homework and surf the web and read posts. I too tend to read more than I post. Many times I"m looking for knowledge and feel I...

    Slider Install

    Thanks for the input. I picked up a torque wrench today. I've needed one on numerous occations and finally bought one. I'll go exchange the locktight in the morning for the blue stuff. When applying it, abacall says to apply it to the last few threads I'm assuming that means the threads...

    Slider Install

    I know there are a few threads about sliders but didn't see anything about the install. I bought a set of Shogun sliders and the box says to check out the web site but I couldn't find anything there. I'm assuming it's pretty straight forward. I read on a generic sight to use locktight under...

    Dumb Cagers

    Have you seen the magnets that motorcyclists throw at cars telling the car they did something stupid to the motorcyclist? A guy at work has them. I'm curious how he gets them off his own tank while riding. I like the egg idea better.
