Happy Birthday, I was scared to open this thread at first afraid I'd find pictures of your birthday suit.

Wifey got me these for my birthday. I wanted some overpants style pants to commute to work and these seem to fit the bill with the liners removed and worn over jeans or slacks they’re comfortable. Hope to test them out tomorrow. https://www.revzilla.com/motorcycle/sedici-alexi-2-mesh-pants kids gave me a Venture rider guardian bell too!! also got a new shirt and hat from vacation

Late as Usual but hope you had a happy birthday just the same.

Have you checked the first gen parts for sale section?

Thanks for the wishes! as for the Alexi 2 pants I wore them over jeans today and because the leg zipper is only near the ankle you can’t put shoes on first easily. It was 60degrees on the way in and they were comfortable. A bit bunchy in the back of the knee but I did rush after the shoe struggle at 0430. 88 and sunny on the way home, took my time putting the pants on without shoes before leaving work and they still were mostly comfortable but bunchy in the knee still, I think the Armor doesn’t sit right for me. Being mesh they are very heavy weight wise but I could feel the airflow nice when up to 50mph. So while they aren’t the ideal overpants I’ll keep them and see how other jeans or slacks feel. These are also just an alternative to my riding jeans that I can easily wear shorts under. And the thermal liner seems to be welcoming come fall.

Happy Birthday

Thanks, Ron. Hopefully I won't need it. UPDATE: Again, the switch fought me every which way. Took an electric jack hammer(kidding) and a drill to get the other 2 screws out, to get to the switch assembly. Finally got it apart. The contact were clean. On both sides! Contact were nice and shiny. Not bad for 16 years. Meter time. Wait a minute... No continuity between 2 contacts and their wire ends! Brought out the large soldering gun. Zapped them both. Continuity! Put switch back together. There now is continuity between the 2 little wires that I didn't have before. The blue/yellow and the blue/black now are bridged electrically when key is on. (Thanks, Ben for wire education. Interesting how much I've forgotten!) SO...my educated guess is...the switch will now work. Unfortunately, I won't be back in Phoenix for a couple of weeks to see if that's the cure. Thank you to everyone with ideas. The forum works...again!! (and of course, I forgot to take pictures)

In memory and sincere gratitude for those who shed their blood and paid the ultimate price so we could live in freedom = THANK YOU!!! Puc

In a moment of weakness 27 years ago today I exchanged rings and ate a cake so I got the bike out and we got in around 100 miles to celebrate today.

I’m jealous that you’ve ridden 50k already, hard for me to find the time.
