That's correct. If it has a speaker out jack, all you need is a common 1/8" to 1/8" stereo patch cord. Most electronics stores would have them.

OK...you lost me there. Why does it not allow you to take your hand off?

I do agree with going to Sierra. They are cheaper than buying direct from J&M and are a fantastic company to deal with .

Sleeperhawk, I've seen you mention a couple of times about not being able to hear with the Edsets. I don't doubt what you are saying but I am absolutely SURE that there was some kind of problem with your installation or something. I've had cheap J&Ms, expensive J&Ms and expensive AirRider headsets and none of them were as good, as as good bass, or as loud as the Edsets. You may have had everything installed perfectly but there was a problem of one kind or another. The Edsets are a very thin speaker. When I first got mine, I installed them in a helmet that had the foam cut out for the thick AirRider headsets. I stuck them deep into the hole that was made for the AirRiders and they didn't sound very well. I pulled them out and filled those old holes and jut put the Edset speakers right behind the helmet lining and properly center over my ears and they sound fantastic. They actually don't even need to be behind the lining. They are so thin that I have even used them on the outside of the lining and they are still very comfortable. I'm not trying to change your mind but for the sake of sharing information to those who are looking at headsets, they need to hear both opinions. I respect your opinion a great deal but mine differs on this issue. The Edsets are the best that I've ever used. Sorry they didn't work out for you. Did you sell yours? If not, l would sure like to get my hands on them and do some testing.

Are you talking about the cable that allows you to use your cellphone through your headsets? That's the only thing that I know of and BuddyRich makes it.

Yes, it will surely get deleted. For years now we have stated over and over and over....NOT POLITICS...NO POLITICS...NO POLITICS.....but here we are again.

Same here...never even heard of anything like that. Sounds interesting though. Of course, you have to remember that the paints are different now days. I would be a little concerned about any powder type product scratching a clear coat paint job. Maybe not but just something to consider.

I love it Bill. I never owned one but I always wanted to. That looks just beautiful.

Cruise Control dis-engaging

It does show in the factory service manual how to adjust it and what the free play should be. -
Bar weight most of the time for me too. That's one reason that I absolutely made sure to install them when I changed to the Flanders bars.
-
I have to agree with Eck...there is something else going on. I have the K&Ns on my '99 and I like them because they can be cleaned and re-used but I've gone back and forth once or twice between the K&Ns and the stock filters when I was researching a gas mileage issue and I can tell you that I picked up no noticeable power increase with the K&Ns.

uh....TOO MUCH INFORMATION.

Need picture of cable from cb to tuner
Freebird replied to GigaWhiskey's topic in GPS, Audio, Electronics
Here is a link to the CB installation manual. It will probably answer a lot of your questions. http://www.venturerider.org/forum/showthread.php?t=47845 -
Sorry to hear it but don't let it discourage you. It takes a little while to get used to the throttle and clutch. Too bad you don't have a small bike to practice on around the yard for a little while.

They charge way too much to sync them. It is very easy and you can buy a gauge set, mercury tubes or the Carbtune for probably less than they would charge you to sync them one time. Then you will have it for the future. AND...who is this TROY that you refer to? OH....maybe YOU are Troy. Besides, I don't know how close you are to one of our other Florida members but many of us have the tools to sync the carbs...maybe one of the members lives close enough to help you out. We like helping folks here.

Kent may have touched on the issue. It may well be the way he uses it. Unlike him, I seldom have more than one tab open and never more than two or three and that is always temporary. Also, I use my laptop 100% of the time, don't even have a desktop system, and because I travel so much, I never have the same connection for longer than a weekend. Even then, I close my browser unless I am online. So, I can't say what kind of problems I would have if I were using mine the way he does.

Check out this thread in the tech library. It should help a lot. http://www.venturerider.org/forum/showthread.php?t=56723

Very nice you old hoot owl. I think you may be owing him a steak dinner.

That's interesting. I'm using Firefox 4 and having no issues that I know of. This was indeed a problem with our host though. It was not the server but a router somewhere. I was on our hosts forum and there were MANY people with the same issue, not just us. They seem to have it resolved now but it may happen again before they get it all sorted out.
-
Some of you may be having problems accessing the site. I have wasn't able to access it for a while either. I have spoken to our hosting company and it is NOT a problem with our actual site but a routing issue that they are working on. Hopefully things will be back to normal soon. Apparently there is an issue with some routers somewhere along the Colorado border. Here is what I was told: We are experiencing a 20gbit DDoS attack and we are working to resolve the issue. You will be updated in this ticket when more information is known.

Those are good bikes. It should be a fun project. Be sure to post the "After" pics.

You are only half right. Please, let's not argue it here. Everbody just do their own research or believe what you wish. Either way, I still support our troops.

LOL....there is no DOUBT that he is trying to rip you off. I am in the sign business (wholesale manufacturer) and I visit about 50 sign shops a week. I can tell you that he doesn't have anywhere NEAR that much money in materials.

It could very well have three years of warranty left. It is not determined by the year model but by the date that it was originally sold and put into service. So, if you buy a one or two year left over, the warranty is still good for 5 years from the date of purchase.

Brad, My question was how much were you selling them for? I've forgotten but I thought it was only a couple of bucks.
