    Bikeeffects.com

    I've bought multiple items and a Starcom Digital system and accessories over the years and have nothing but exemplary service from Jeff and Bike Effects. The best I've had with about any company I've dealt with over the years, pre and post sale.

    waterproof riding suit

    +1 Road Toads. Bought them last year and wore them in a tornado producing thunder-boomer. Dry as a chip, except where I wet my pants from the inside.

    Trailer Hitch Help!

    Have you tried Classic Industries? They're in Australia but I got mine in a week. I can't say what their delivery time is at present and I don't know what type ball you need for that particular trailer. I love their hitch use it with a Rally Wagon. Classic Industries

    Kendon trailer

    I saw one of these at a rest stop last week. He had his bike on the lift and also towing a car behind the lift. It looked like a sweet solution. Click on "Click here to see the Overbilt Electric Motorcycle Lift in action" near the bottom of the page. Overbilt Lifts

    Put Out to Pasture

    You are a wise man. I guess we all have to start giving up things we enjoy as our age increases and/or health decreases. The great thing about life is that, while you can never replace the particular joy you had in rinding, there is still an abundance of undiscovered simple pleasures out...

    AE Cornering Suggestions?

    You may be onto something. Although experience with the AE cleared up my issues with throttle abruptness out of corners, I do seem to remember an improvement after the ECU change was done.

    iphoJRne and starcom

    I have the Starcomm Digital and purchased their iPhone cable. It has the standard 3.5mm plug for the iPhone and then splits the Starcomm side into a connector for the "phone" input and one for the "music" input. I have not been able to get it to fully work. I can hear audio from all sources...

    Mapping program for Mac?

    I love my Mac but there are a few PC only applications that I can't live without. I use Parallels and run a copy of XP on my Mac. It works great. A free option is to run BootCamp on your Mac. That too works very well but you must choose to boot to Windows or OS X when you power on. When you...

    Ready to pull the trigger

    Got it, love it. No problems, just bliss. Ridden many different bikes for many years and have no desire to go back to a clutch lever on this particular class bike (sport-tourer).

    Sheepskin Deat Pad Group Buy

    I checked the weekly specials Saturday night and they no longer had the medium in charcoal, just black and cream. They did have a larger size (for the RT1100) in charcoal so I thought I'd order that and just make it work. They called me Sunday morning to inform me that the medium is the better...

    iPhone on the FJR

    Yes, talking on a cellphone while driving increases risk substantially; I don't think anyone is arguing. But surely we are skilled enough to glance at a map and listen to some music as safely as we check our speedometer and fuel level. And if we want to pull off the road and make a call - to...

    New FJR Article

    I just got back from a sunset ride through Bluegrass horse country. I feel truly blessed that I can just hop on the bike, take a turn out of my little town, and be on the twisties past beautiful thoroughbred farms and historic distilleries heading down to the KY river and back while dinner's on...

    Moto Fizz Med. + Garauld Rack

    I bought this for my large Moto but I haven't used it yet. I have a friend who swears by it for his camera gear. There were pictures on the PacSafe website from a guy showing the results of someone breaking into his car on a hiking trip and trying to remove his camera backpack wrapped in the...
