  1. If wind buff is the issue I'm not sure if new seat would help. Any adjustment to passenger seat that would raise her might make it worse. If you're happy with your seat and she likes her seat, just not the air, my suggest is new x-large / wide windshield. I like the F-4 custom. Great product and customer service. If you also decide on new seat, I would also recommend Russell Day Long. Will custom build for both of you. Not cheap but a great product.
  2. I'm surprised the tourmaster won't work. The tail may not slide all the way down behind the windshield mounting screws, but on mine goes down enough that the windshield will pinch the bag to the dash and it should hold fine. I have a different brand but very similar. Been on for the last 50k with no issues.
  3. I talked w my dealer last month. At that time he said not in sept. Think there is some dealers meeting later this year and he may get more info then. His opinion is we will get a new model next year, but who knows.
  4. I've looked at this and plan on using at next tire change. My question is, has anyone noticed a change in tire mileage? My thinking is it might help.
  5. Just getting home myself. Stuck around waiting for the rain to stop so late start. Good news was got home dry. Good to see everyone and a good time.
  6. Not sure what to think. I looked at weather.com this morning they said 80% chance of rain sat / sun. Just looked again and it says 10%. If I get to choose, give me 10% and let's have a great day riding!
  7. Not sure, but my guess is it will not work without some type of adapter like the carbon one adapter as it will not fit between the exhaust pipes to just hit the frame. IE, it's to wide to make contact with just the frame without hitting the pipes.
  8. I've looked at it before and think it looks like a good jack. Always wish I had bought one when they came out a few years ago as I think they were closer to $100 but everything has gone up. FYI, I do not believe you can use the 20% off coupon on floor jacks ( that's the way I read the fine print.)
  9. I would test the RTB controller to make sure it's working. If you have a simple test light, I'ld test both going in and out of the controller. Hopefully the disconnect plug under the seat is still there which is a very easy place for first test spot. Might help isolate the area of the problem.
  10. I'ld consider Day-Long. Very happy with mine and think most people who have them are. Some think they are pricey, but I think a great value if you want to be comfortable on long rides.
  11. F4 tall / wide. Had it for 4 years and still looks like the day I put it on. Over 30,000 miles with the tall. I also have a short tinted one from F4 with over 10,000 miles I use when solo riding. Also very good people to work with and I believe they are the best.
  12. You can get at any ace or other hardware store which keeps metric bolts. I actually changed mine to stainless regular SHCS as I hate button heads when hidden for normal sight. Also went slightly longer to make it easier to put back together.
  13. You can buy just the hardware kit on eBay. Item 171245522259 I think. $22 + 5 shipping. I lost one of mine so bought the kit and parts were fine. Plan on keeping spare for when I loose the next one. Good luck with it
  14. Totally agree. Had the pillow top for several years and liked it the first few years. Then it seemed to 'go bad' and wasn't comfortable. Sent to Russell Day Long for re-work. Couldn't be happier. Some may not like the way the Day Long looks, but I'm most concerned with comfort. For long rides you'll never regret having a Day Long seat.
