    NO as you get used to keeping your feet off of the pegs, and so subconsciously you may not move your feet onto the pegs and encounter a road hazard and break your foot. I have seen it happen!!!!!!!!!! you need to practice the "slow ride" If you need motivation get a copy of the current version of "Ride like a Pro" DVD. I am not affiliated with that company but they make a great instructional video. Get your feet on the pegs/boards as soon as the bike starts mooving and keep them there untill you are at a complete stop. PRACTICE this at all times.

    I agree that you should replace the casatte player with the GPS.

    It looks like a motorcycle accessory for those who do not know how to ride a motorcycle. I mean that you must lean a motorcycle for it to turn to its maximum. it looks like that thing limits the maximum lean angle to the right, so it could make you crash. I would recommend to NEVER put anything on your motorcycle that limits the maximum lean angle.

    It is available. Try at a full service Pharmacy. or a custom Neon Sign manufacturer. You can get it a a lab supply like HERE for 100 grams. you can buy a new mercury manometer from Saber Cycles HERE or HERE with a long screwdriver... I have one and don't have a use for it anymore as I don't have a multi-carbureted bike. I is a good tool. BTW I have about 6 Oz of mercurey in a flask, if you lived near me I would give you some.....

    It has saddle bags.......... I would not call it a touring bike...... but a V4 in that configuration looks like fun. I like the exhaust note. I wish them luck!!!!!!

    Be sure to use Honda Moly60 grease on the pins and all three splines when you remove the Final Drive.... Part number 08734-0001 at a Honda or Acura CAR dealership will save you a few dollars. Yes it is 3 Oz in a 6 Oz tube..... so it comes half full, but it is a LIFETME supply as you apply it sparingly.

    I found a video on Youtube on Redline Water Wetter. Click on the video to watch it [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pApWgZdozQA]Water Wetter Video on Youtube[/ame] REMEMBER that Watter Wetter is normally used in race cars engines. MSDS is HERE it looks like they are useing PolySiloxane (silicone oil) Polymer as a defoaming agent and seal lube...

    actually it is s subset of Titanium, the Metallic Titanium http://powersports.honda.com/Assets/ModelColors/2010_GoldWingAudioComfort_color_MetallicTitanium_trans.png that is the quickest and the fastest of all the Goldwings.

    I have to add to that I just listen/feel through my hands and feet by the bikes slight vibrations for the RPMs
  23. KiteSquid
    Are you trying to get more light in your brake and turn signal lamps? Low cost LEDs usually have low output. for an affordable alternative click HERE to see what I did on my RSV.
  24. KiteSquid
    I just listen for the RPMs.... if too high for the performance I want, I shift up one or two gears and if the RPMs are too low for the performacne I shift down one or two gears. If the RPMs are about right, I dont shift.... My only problem comes when I am in top gear and am looking for more....... 6th, 7th, 8th, etc...
  25. KiteSquid
    BUT use Honda Moly60 to grease it. your splines and pins will out last you if you do..
