    V1 RAM mount??

    Good call, but sadly, mine is right side up. I'm still looking for a RAM plate with ball that will work. The only one I've found so far had the super large ball on it. :(

    V1 RAM mount??

    The shelf's are cool, but I use 2 different windscreens, and they come down to low to make a shelf posable. Also, I think its clear, but just to make sure, the V1 is not interfearing with my GPS, the RAM mount Magnet for the V1 is whats causing the problems.

    V1 RAM mount??

    I have the same setup as above minus the velcro and my SPIII is in between my bars on a stem stand, not a RAM mount. There might be 2 things that are helping cause my problem. One is the older SPIII GPS, it might have less sheilding and stuff then a new GPS? Also, the stem stand is all metal...

Here's the problem... The Magnet for the V1 is interfearing with my GPS!!! Its been explaned to me that the GPS...

    Wfo4 Dinners

    Whats the $18 room charge? And... while we are laying it all out on the table and stuff... I was able to do the STN-N dinner for 80 people at $15 a head after tip, setup and clean up at a Best Western conf room (we had room for about 30 more people if needed). Granted the food was so-so, but...

    Wish List

    I'm not sure what you mean here? The V1 has a rear facing detector, and I think the X50 does too. The V1 also has arrow indecators so you know where the signal is coming from. If you just talking about pacing, then a detector wont help, but thats where your other skills come into play. You...

    Wish List

    Acutaly, its much more of a rarity to see a cop being very selective when running a trap, at least not to the point that someone with a V1 or Escort X50 isn't going to see 2+ miles out. Of course the amount of traffic on the road is going to make a difference, but thats where common sence comes...

    Wish List

    Espia4ci great write up! Its always nice to see what the “other side” is thinking. Keep your friends close and your… well you know. However, after spending almost 100 hours in a patrol car, over 60K miles on 2 wheels in the past 3 years, and a few hours in a court room I’d like to offer up my...

    Radar Detectors, Anyone?

    THe nice thing about the HARD unit is the little LED light is movible. During the day I have the light pointed right at my eye ball, mainly becues I'm usualy wairing sunglasses and need a direct beam. If I"m not wairing shades or its not very bright out, I just point it away from my eye ball a...

    Farkle Time

    Nice farkel! I like the tint of the screen. Hey... could you do me a favor and take a non-flash pic of the rear bag stickers in the sunlight? I'd like to see what those look like when they are not reflecting.

    Iron Butt Rides....what's The Point??

    For me, its nice to get into a whole new area of this amazing contry in a very short amount of time. I like to change it up between superslab and 2 laners, but at least for the first 500 miles, I've "been there, done that" and really just want to see something new or havent travled much. When...

    Fjr1300 Euro 2006

    After 20K miles I'm still shifting into 6th, or at least trying too. If they do put a 6th in there, I hope they dont touch the first 5 gears, cuse those are setup perfect! But like others have said, it would be nice to drop the R's to 2500/3000 when crusing at the edges of slab speeds. ;)

    Radar Detectors, Anyone?

    Radar does work in tank bags, but on this last trip I took I got to find out how well. My riding partner had to borrow a bike last min and was forced to put his V1 in the map pouch of his tank bag. I had my V1 mounted about 1" over the brake res via a RAM mount setup. It seamed like I was...

    Radar Detectors, Anyone?

    If you have time, take off your gloves and put them on top of the detector.
