Xciting 500 / Re: Water bottle? GPS/phone mounts?
« on: April 03, 2013, 03:59:51 PM »
Regarding the GPS, I mounted a stand alone Garmin Nuvi with a hardwire that is connected to the key. It shuts off when I turn the bike off.
For the water, I keep a bottle or two in a tail bag seeing that I live in the desert.

Speaking of lift, I just got done tonight stripping the rear axles and control arms to send out to the powder coater. FYI, Don't use brake cleaner to clean stuff with. It ate alot of the silver paint on the control arms and made a mess of things.
I had some other stuff "Micro polished" while the engine is out. Hopefully I will succeed in making this car look new again

I paid $2800 for a new '09 leftover. Best deal ever. I will agree that the paint/bodywork will cost $$$$ unless one can do it themselves.

I've got one of them newfangled PIAA "yellow" lamps. I love the light output, color rendition and overall appearance.

Sorry Steve, I'm no use in this section... Talk TR6's and then I can help! Aside from that, my bike has only 2500 miles so no issues of experience yet!

« on: August 07, 2012, 02:49:36 PM »
I looked at the Amazon link. The trailer is intended for bicycle use. Those tires are probably not meant for speeds greater than 30 and under constant use. I will admit, the trailer is a cool idea, but not something I would use on any highway or for more than a few miles. You'd get sued out here by the cell phone toting soccer mom in her lifted F-150 if she broke a nail trying to avoid you when you get a flat on that trailer.... Crazy world, I tell ya.

I've added Seafoam to the mix last week and after riding it around in 114º heat, it's been fine.

No worries Axy... We are headed for those fuel prices. More than likely after the summer months and towards November when the US of A goes into a nasty all hands down recession.
