    Harley Davidson to enter personal computer market

    Awesome! The HD owner here in the office had a few comments but thought it was funny too. We were laughing like crazy by the time the flaming edition was mentioned. Thanks for sharing.

    Vista Cruise Options

    Ditto with the link Ignacio provided. I used the same Yamaha specific VC as in the link. My installation procedure was the same other than trimming the VC collar versus trimming the grip. Works very well too. My $.02

    HappyRider - Well... its mentioned again. I will try to go back out tomorrow wearing a different pair of boots (smaller) and see. Hell maybe its just my dumb ass being dumb. I just can't figure out why the 2nd to 3rd upshift is the only problem. That's why I thought it was a mechanical...

    2009 2nd to 3rd gear issue

    Whoa Wfooshee, I goota think somethings through. Let's see: Is the shifter coming down after shifting first to second? ---I believe so as there are no issues going from 1-N-2 and back down 2-N-1 (obviously not actually stopping in Neutral) You can't pick third if the ratchet han't reset...
