    Custom Seat

    I guess it depends on the type of riding you like. For "sporty" riding I haven't found anything in CT that compares to Dutchess county. Well marked corners, smooth pavement, and some great scenery. Whenever I get a day to myself I usually try to get out of CT, either western MA or NY. Planning...

    Custom Seat

    My Bill Mayer saddle is actually lower and a bit narrower than stock. I'm only a couple inches taller than Teecb and with my seat in the high position I'm still able to get both feet on the ground when stopped, not flat-footed, but still....

    Custom Seat

    Lots of locations in central CT, none of 'em very good. All the good roads are north and west of you.

    I have a Bill Mayer and I'll extend the same offer. I live in Newington. Bill Edited to add: There's no way that I could've done 9000 miles on the stock brick.

    In search of quiet air

    +1000 IMO the tuning blocks are the answer, unfortunately I don't think they're available for GenII. At 5'7" I'm not as tall as the OP but after trying several shields the Rifle is far and away my favorite. With it raised to the point that I'm just looking over the top the air is still enough...

    Ducati Hypermotard S

    I rode the HM and the KTM Super Duke, the Ducati didn't really move me. I didn't like the riding position, alot of heat to the seat, and my ass was killing me 10 mins. into the ride. I liked the KTM so much I'm seriously trying to pay off my FJR early so I can get a Super Duke next year. If...

    Replacement ZUMO Security Screw / Knob

    Catskills on Sat. 7/12

    I'm heading up to the Catskills this Sat., was thinking about taking CT44 into NY and then catching 199 to the Hudson river, no plans from there. The maps show alot of nice looking roads but having never been there I'm not sure what's good and what isn't. I'm leaving early A.M. and plan on...

    @NEW GB@ Heli Tour Performance® HR Triple Clamp Group Buy

    I ordered mine on July 1st and was told they wouldn't ship till around the 17th. Fell asleep on the couch last night and when I woke up there was a box from Heli on the coffee table. They delivered it yesterday evening and she found it on the porch when she took the dog out. Going down to start...

    Fuse Block + Relay = Fuzeblock

    I agree, ordered one yesterday. I have everything mounted under the seats: heated gear controller, autocomm, power commander, so space is at a premium. With the integral relay I can eliminate the existing relay and the wires connecting it to the barrier strips (also under the seat), I can also...

    @NEW GB@ Heli Tour Performance® HR Triple Clamp Group Buy

    On Sunday I wrote down all the info I needed to place my order: Heli's phone #, part #, my forum ID#, and then left the note on my computer desk when I went to work. Got home at about 10 after 5, went right to the phone and called, too late, office closes at 5:00. Figured I'd give them a call...
