I had a problem with the mounting bracket on my 06 AE with the shift actuator mount. The mount came loose, broke the welds and was flopping around, and obviously not shifting the way it should. I took it apart, drilled three holes in the subframe and mounted it solid. That all went well, I put...

I'm flying out to Boston next week, we are staying in Cape cod for two weeks and I was hoping to rent a bike while I was there. So far all I can seem to find online are Harleys to rent and was hoping for something else, really anything else. I know it's a litle snobby and I'l climb on a tractor...
