    Thank you for the suggestions, I will try to check these out soon.  Hoping for an easy fix instead having to spend money on a new assembly. Thanks

    Sluggish throttle return

    Hello all.  It's been a while since I've posted here, mostly because I haven't been riding much.  I'd like to change that this year, & the bike was due for a valve check, so I decided to dive into that.  All were in spec, & I started putting it back together.  I had a heck of a time getting the...

    Need good deal on Schuberth helmet

    Wow. That knocks about $200 off the price for what is around here. I wanted to get the Shoei Neotec, but it's on backorder everyplace. Ordering through them would make the Schuberth cheaper than the Shoei. Will this void the warranty? In the Revzilla review of the Schuberth, it says if you...

    Garmin Zumo 550 Memory Limitations

    +1 I had not seen this thread before today. Over the weekend, I finally decided to update my 4 yr old Zumo map. I was a little disappointed when I ran into problems with the map install. Figured I'd browse the Zumo forums, but decided to check in here first for something unrelated. Thanks for...

    aerostich guy;s

    I went with a 2 piece & have been very happy with it, except for the color. I went with grey with black ballistics. However, it has more of a green tinge to it. But, functional wise, it works great. Never worn the jacket without the pants, always zipped together.

    Butler Motorcycle Maps

    I use MadMaps (https://www.madmaps.com/roadtrips/categories/), which looks similar to Butler. What I like about them is they include motorcycle specific points of interest.

    switch for driving lights

    I went with the Little Pushbutton Momentary Switch (5A) Tall (https://easternbeaver.com/Main/Elec__Products/Switches/switches.html) from Eastern Beaver when I got my relay from him.

    Need help, broke down on road trip

    Well, I didn't have any issues today. It was a different type of riding because it was all national parks & backroads, & the temperature was a lot cooler, but I'm confident it's fixed. I'll still be real careful every time I open the cap when it's that warm out. Thanks again to Bustanut &...

    Need help, broke down on road trip

    On a road trip from Michigan to Colorado. Two days in a row now, after putting a few hundred miles on & in the high heat, the tank is extremely pressurized. The first time it happened, gas came shooting out of the filler when I opened it. Let the bike sit a couple hours, filled it up &...

    Driving Lights - Routing Wire Harness

    I recently installed lights on my '05. I'm trying to do a write up to post here, but it will likely be weeks, if ever, before it gets posted. I did as Patriot mentioned, used posi-taps & posi-lock to hook the Eastern Beaver relay into existing. You should be able to just remove the 4 panels...

    Great Lakes Ride (s)

    Well, I had hoped to go, but my work schedule just won't allow it. The offer of my house as a maintenance point still stands. I'll PM you. Good luck, ride safe. zom

    Question about MotoFizz bag

    Thanks for all the responses. I've decided to just wait for the medium MF to show up instead of going with the large. If it doesn't make it in time for the trip, I've done a number of long trips without it, so I'll survive. The only time I've really wished for more space is when I have to...

    Question about MotoFizz bag

    Looking for thoughts from those that have any of the three sizes of MotoFizz seat bags. I have a week long trip coming up & wanted to get the mid size. So of course Aerostich is out of stock for 3 weeks, which will be too late for me. My main goal for the bag is to keep all clothes for trips...
