I've never used one of them and am personally not a fan of half helmets but I can tell you that the Scorpion helmets get great reviews. I did a Google search on that particular model and it too gets great reviews. Some rate it as the best half helmet on the market. It does look good. I see that New Enough also sells it but the prices are about the same I think. http://www.motorcyclegear.com/browse/search?query=EXO+100 Don

I've got to be honest with you. If I had received that response, I would have been very ticked off about it. BUT....it happened to you and therefore, I have to admit that it was a teeny bit funny. That being said, I would not buy from him again if he had responded that way to me.

Alternate Fairing Broken Tab Fix

I used JB Weld on my left lower. I applied it to the inside where it had cracked. It has been there for about 6 years now and has held well and did not damage the plastic. -
That's fantastic news. I'm glad that got things corrected. I would sure settle for 20/70 in the right eye.

I really don't know of any MP3 player that can't be plugged into the auxiliary port on the RSV. Anything that has a headphone out jack can but plugged into the aux port.

You know, I was never very good at picking up on any signals from women. My wife has told me that I have no idea when a woman is flirting with me. I just assumed that they never do. I told her that if a woman was flirting with me to PLEASE let me know....judging by her response, I'm assuming that won't happen. Anyway, as bad as I am about picking up on such things...even I can read the signs in THIS story.

My son has played for about 6 years, through Junior High and High School. He never really got too excited about it though and since graduating from High School, the horn has never left it's case. Too bad. I've tried to tell him that someday he might really enjoy making music and should practice it from time to time. He really has no interest.

Hold it...that confused me. Actually...I think you are right or was it the 70's.

Like...far out dudes....I remember the 60's....the only time I know when brownie's actually could give you the munchies.

Many people have tried to find out but nobody ever has. Yamaha does not publish that information.

You are not thinking clearly...she DID marry me...that may be a clear sign that she wasn't completely sane to begin with.

The problem is that the accessories for these bikes have always been difficult to get. I know for a fact that since the bike was introduced in 1999, there have been more times than not that one accessory or another has been on "national back order". I have also never had much luck in finding accessories at dealers, they were always special order. I know that some of the very largest dealers did stock some but most shops never did. I don't feel that Yamaha has ever handled it very well. Don't misunderstand, I love my RSV and have no intentions of getting rid of it anytime soon. I have owned it now since May of 1999 and still haven't seen a bike that I like better. It has always been a somewhat limited model though and due to that, there was never really an aftermarket parts supply developed for it and even factory accessories have not always been readily available.

OK....I guess that you folks think that all I have to do is sit around and add every single little thing that you can come up with. The sad part is, you are pretty much right. Anyway, I added that first one but that bottom one is WAY to big to be a smilie.
-
Well yea....but...I'm the driving FORCE.
-
It's not the parts, it's the accessories. I agree that they seem to be discontinuing more and more of them. It much be very disheartening to buy a new bike and find that the factory accessories are already discontinued. I absolutely do not understand how Yamaha cannot see what that would do to customer satisfaction.
-
OK...just my opinion and I hope others will help out here. I'm going to say between $7500 and $8000.

There are adapters available. Here is one example. http://www.kuryakyn.com/Products/810/Mirror-Adapters

Yes, all of mine were on motorcycle also. I would color them all in otherwise.

I know what you're thinking Tom...you're thinking "I sure wish Don would come visit again"...well...it's not going to happen as long as that white stuff is deep. I actually need to go see a customer in Rochester but dang if I'm anxious to do it right now. I'm thinking he can wait until April or so.
-
I wouldn't mind doing it except that I've never used them so don't have a tire that I can have checked.
-
It just seems that it would be very easy to settle this issue. All somebody needs to do is put one of the wheel/tires with these beads on a quality high speed spin balancer and see if it indicates that it is balanced. It either will be or it won't be. Any "seat of the pants" type opinions are too easily influenced by perception.
-
Yea right...you think it's that easy to back peddle around here? Nope, your words are now carved into STONE and you have to live with it. Now where is that picture of Mini holding the little cap gun.

New Guy, I sent you a PM with instructions.

Now THAT is one heck of an accurate description. Well done Squid Boy.

Hey...nobody mentioned removing the "more" button and why would you want to?
