honestly, in our BRC we weren't taught that we had to engine break. we were taught that we could and that it's good to be in gear... but not that we had to engine break. but we were taught not to put it in neutral. even if you pull the clutch in and just dance on the shifter until you get to...

thanks for the update. i have a givi trunk and have wanted to add some more lights on the rear. this is one of my options. i feel a little better leaning this way with that sorta CS.

in a way i have to agree with you. you posted about tank slapping. thank you for doing that. i already knew about it, but there are always new riders and people needing to learn. and bring it up every now and then allows for discussion and reminders on how to stay safe. as to how this...

no nothing about the seller. this is just the first auction i saw so you can know what i was talking about. ATV Motorcycle motorbike Helmet Speaker Volume Control | eBay

i start with earplugs. then i have a cheap set of helmet speakers i got of ebay. i think they were 5 bucks shipped. they attach with velcro to the inside of the helmet. plug it into my ipod and i'm good. cranked up it just feels like a normal listening volume. and i know it's not killing...

anything can be done. and everyone has their reasons. but i honestly don't see why you would. feel free to be the first. take a lot of pics and documentation and post it on here so we can all see your creation.

that's one of the oddest things i've heard of. so when the engine dies are you having to hit your starter button to restart it? how are you restarting the engine. also, because i'm slow on the uptake... are you saying (a)you're rolling along squeezing your clutch in... then you let it out to...

dang. too bad you don't live closer.

the blue one does look really nice.

my gas lock was acting like this recently. got to where i couldn't even turn it. i got some graphite "lube" from lowe's. it took a few times of using it but it seems to be acting right now.

i need the "c" shaped part that the turn signal comes out of for the 2006 blue.

it's a newer model. check out the swing arm, subframe (passenger pegs), and calipers. and that's the newer smaller fairing. and i believe that's the seat that the rest of the world saw starting with the '07's. i have no doubt it's an '07 (or later) bike. i'm just wondering if yamaha did...

i've read good things about motobatt. if i looked everything up right you can get our battery for 63.00 plus about 10 bucks shipping on ebay.

even with the bad weather it was a great trip. if i knew the weather was going to be like that, i'd go again. i'd just work harder at the start of the trip to go further so we could see more of maine. that was really the only bad part of the trip to me. i didn't get to see much of main at...

hmmm. i'm not too sure what i think about that. it almost hurts my eyes looking at all the "different" parts "thrown" together. what year is it? are there other examples around the world of mixing frame/engine colors?

Hey guys. Thanks for the offers you made. I actually saw it while on the road and wrote a reply. I was going to tell you where we were actually heading (and some other great info) and then the hotel i-net kicked me off. Then I lost my post. Since I only had my phone I didn't feel much like...

oh, forgot to mention... i go to the CP... hit the "choose file" button... select the file... hit upload... and then i get the message... "unable to save image: at the bottom of the page it says my file is 198 x 100 pixels and 4kb so unless i'm brain isn't clicking on all cylinders i should...

very nicely done. yet another advantage of the 07+ bikes.

sorry to be thread digging but i tried to upload my new "states i've traveled map" and can't. what's up. it's smaller than is required and i have an elite membership to the site so what gives?

sorry i didn't get to your question earlier. my thought was a pic per item. since i didn't state it at the start i'll accept mulit-item pics IF they've been taken before the posting of this response. but from here on out no multi-item pics. btw, pretty excited because my mom lives about 4...
