    Electrical Issue (not enough power?)

    JJD952 ELECTRICAL - I Googled this and only got this thread, one other in this forum, and one in a Mazda car forum or something. What is it I am looking for by searching that? Is that a part number or something? So I took my battery to CTC (Canadian Tire) and had it load tested. The one he used...

    Riding Time Once Again

    All great reminders, thanks! I'd like to add to make sure you check tire pressure pretty frequently if you live in a state, or in Canada like me, where the temps change significantly in the seasons. Heard of too many people in my area checking them on that first ride morning, adjusting...

    The Riding Game!

    Oh this is so cool! Totally going to try to jump into this game once the freakish weather around here levels out enough to ride (had the bike out Feb 3rd, was like 6C and clear roads. This weekend has been dipping down to -12C and massive ice storm, snowed last week too, lol). Current challenge...

    Re: April 2016 BOTM - uploads enabled Lol thanks, was last summer, went for a ride to get away from it all. Was reading there and got hot in the sun so stripped my gear off and the idea hit me lol. Look forward to the flowers and more windmills!

    Electrical Issue (not enough power?)

    Green, good to go, will take it in next week! Ohhh, I think I finally understand about the headlights now. That sounds cool, I don't think mine does that, I think both HB are on fo HB but will have to check. I like the sounds of the BD43 mode better anyway, now that I understand it. I thought...

    Any Ontarians Still Around?

    I use Whatsapp with some riders I met when I first started on my Ninja 500 (the last of us to ride a ninja still just sold his and bought a Duc Scrambler, SO sexy). You can do pics and video and voice there too as mentioned. Don't know about location. Uses wifi and it's a free app. Even got my...

    Help me choose my first replacement tires

    I second Shoop! I'm curious how the OP's tires held up for him. Seems you kind of wanted something between a single and dual compound lol. I'm really surprised no one mentioned Pirelli Angel ST or GT's!!! They ranked either tied or just above or just behind the PR4's in all the reviews I...

    Electrical Issue (not enough power?)

    Thanks again for the reply! I posted a link once or twice in this thread to a tutorial on beefing up sportbike electrical systems. The write of it has an electrical background I think and is convinced most sportbikes have weak systems (as I think Motogiro or yourself also mentioned earlier). It...

    Any Ontarians Still Around?

    Yeah, I have family that live in McArthur Mills and I've been doing survival courses up there for over a decade, so I get mixed up sometimes lol. 62 is really scenic and a quick ride (not much elevation change or twisties, good visibility and not much traffic when I've been there) and would be...

    April 2016 BOTM - winner - VEGASRIDER

    Re: April 2016 BOTM - uploads enabled Don't worry too much... the would-be posters probably just came in and saw my awesome creativity and figured they'd lose this month anyway. So they're saving their pics for next month when they have a chance lol.

    Electrical Issue (not enough power?)

    Thanks guys!! Battery is on tender now, will get it load tested soon and proceed from there. Townsends, do you think that triumph electrical upgrade tutorial I posted would make a difference and allow me to run 2 filaments, gps, heated grips?
