    Powerlet + Battery Tender

    Your talking about the plug in the attached photo right? I believe has an inline fuse, I forget what size. I think this cable came stock on 07-09 models. If that is what your talking about then yes you can totally use it for a battery tender or other things. I will not comment on tenders...

    I wave at anything with two wheels including moto cops. Most wave or nod back even the cops and harley riders. I have given up on the scooters since none wave back.

    To Honk or Not to Honk, that is the poll

    I am a commuter on my bike in Los Angeles City Freeway and street traffic. My left thumb is always resting on the horn button so if I need to use i can use it immediately. That being said I must agree with everyone about looking ahead for danger so you do not even need to use it. If i even...

    Read This! RPM, Gear, Sprockets, Tire = Actual Speed!

    Read This! RPM, Gear, Sprockets, Tire = Actual Speed!

    I think you might have a mistake very minor though you calculated Sidewall height to be 3.897 Sidewall Height (SH): SH = 7.0866" X 0.55 = 3.897" but in your formula you used 3.189. Using 3.189 should have gotten a tire diameter of 23.378 but you got the tire diameter using 3.897 which gives you...

    Well according to the calculator provided and double checking it with the math provided by finalimpact my top speed is 159.1 MPH @ 14000 rpms I have everything stock except 15 tooth sprocket in front. With a stock 16 tooth front sprocket it is 169.7 MPH@ 14000 RPM

    Clutch Slave Levers - I'm making them again

    Killer it looks like you edited your original post to say you are done making levers for this round. I guess I am too late to get one of these. If that is the case I can wait until you are making them again, but if you are still making them I would love to get one

    You know your an Aussie when..........
