  1. PIP and then the Cody run Looks like this is going to be lots fun.
  2. Just changed mine. It is behind the right lower cowling and pretty simple to get at. 7-7 of the manual tells you how to remove the cowling 7-35 give you a description of the fuses

    high tech

    If your coming to Cody.. I will show you High Tech. Blackberry, Notebook, Netbook, American Cell Phone. If I don't take the office with me I would never be able to leave the city. Sad very Sad.
  4. Had one on my FJR 1300. Was nice to know. Miss it on the RSV
  5. Not sure whats up. Your Zumo should come with North America and when I upgraded mine to version 9 it just updated the whole thing. May be worth a call to tech Support. Garmin's support is pretty good.
  6. I have the Zumo 550 and the XM puck. I use it on the bike and in the truck all the time. The XM is great traveling on the bike and reception has been excellent. I cannot remember a time when I have lost XM reception. Have lost the GPS satellite's occasionally though . I got mine from gpscity. the price was good, delivery quick and service excellent.
  7. Do the heated vest, heavy gloves, heavy leather jacket, long johns (thermal kind), chaps, thermal socks and good boots. Also do a sheepskin on the seat. Toasty to about 32 F or 0 C. After that this little baby heads inside. My last bike had the heated grips and I found them useless. You had to wear heavy gloves in the cold to keep the tops of your hands warm anyway. Have not tried the heated seat on the bike but it sure is nice in the truck when it's cold... If you really want the powered route, I have seen someone put aftermarket heated grips on a Venture and Aerostich sells a heated liner than can be put into your stock seat.
  8. Have almost the same outfit on my RSV. Zumo 550 with the XM puck. I use a mounting plate from cyclegadgets. Works great and only $5.50. http://www.cyclegadgets.com/Products....asp?prod=ZUMO The plate sits just behind the Zumo mount and works with the magnets. Looks exactly like the picture previously posted.
  9. I trailer my bike in a travel trailer and also have a motorcycle trailer. I use a wheel chuck for the front tire and use the crash bars front and back to hold in place. Found if a strap from the front crash bar to the rear eyebolt and a strap from the rear crash bar to the front the eyebolt the motorcycle sits solid with no movement at all.
  10. 85 is the fastest. Only run at 65 with the trailer on as I found that I had to stop every hour for gas... The RSV is a real pig over 65 when towing any weight... With me it is probably has to do with all the weight that is already in the saddle...
  11. That worked Now I can tour around Bemidji with the back seat and backrest on. Thanks
  12. It was late last night when I looked at this. I was looking for the thread size. I know the bolt head is 10mm
