    Tail & Turn Signal lights

    Thx I have used Posi taps but removed the accessory from the taps so I don't believe its a cut of the wiring. Checking the fuses there was power to the Signal fuse but none to the Hazard fuse which I believe indicates a problem with the hazard relay?

    Tail & Turn Signal lights

    I'm installing additional brake lights on a Gen 3 and not sure what I've done in the process but my tail and signal lights aren't working. Brake lights work and the signal fuse and hazard fuse appear to be intact. Removed the taps from the oem wiring and still not working Help

    Es Model worth the extra money?

    Totally worth it .... handles so much better than my Gen 1. Frankly I don't care if there great deals on different versions or `13s etc. We all have limited shelf life and a finite time to ride so don't compromise for a few thousand bucks. Get what your heart wants

    Radar detector

    There's a bunch of ways depending on your jurisdiction. A cheapie way is just Velcro to your brake reservoir. Also there's the radar box with a ram mount or Tech mount sales mounts off of the main bearing nut. Since I'm in an illegal jurisdiction I use Velcro and a tank bag

    Radar detector

    Its pretty simple actually ... the Redline does not emit any signal that can be picked up by the Spectre the RDD that law enforcement uses to detect the use of an RD. Valentine has never been able to mask its emissions due to the two antenaes it uses to enable its arrows. I'd encourage you to...

    Radar detector

    Veil Guy has a blog currently reviewing the V1 which is quite informative. If you plan using your Rd in a jurisdiction where they are illegal then you should go Redline. If not ... I'd probably go V1. Of course you can't rely on them to protect you from laser but that's another story

    Passenger seat height

    I've been renting a 1200gs to tour Ireland and my SO has mentioned she can see over my shoulders unlike the FJR. Has anyone raised the height of the pillions seat to allow for a better forward view?

    Raising the 2014 tank

    Quick question ... I'd like to raise the gas tank on my 2014 but there's an extra panel (compared to my 04) behind the tank that Ive removed the screws and quick fasteners on. Does it just require a tug to pull it free or am I missing something?

    Gen-III Highbeam Relay Location?

    Please take photos of your tap in .... the Darla instructions don't show a very good view of the 2006 + model . It appears to be a yellow wire in all models
