All 19- New battery still no crank [image: View Post]karhawk, on 23 May 2012 - 06:18 PM, said: [image: View Post]YoshiHNS, on 23 May 2012 - 06:01 PM, said: Pull it up next to your car and use it to give it a jump. Then worry about a new battery. Yeah…
- Camera Mount (6th gen) I'm surprised that the video wasn't jumpy since the only thing smoothing out the bumps was the camera mount and the tire. Well done. A good camera handles that. :)
- VFR ride to Sierra@Tahoe Post pics or it didn't happen lad. That's the rules... :ph34r:
- Bay Area Unite! That ride is NOT a 'slow pace'. Leaving Newark at 9:45 and hitting those five bridges by nightfall is at least six hours of very aggressive riding. The page in that link says ' An Intermediate to Advanced level of skill…
- Completely dead battery ? [image: View Post]Veefer800Canuck, on 02 April 2012 - 12:24 PM, said: I was riding down the road one day, had been riding for hours with no problem. Stopped for gas, bike would not restart. Dead short between two cells…

- Camera Reviews............ [image: View Post]YoshiHNS, on 29 January 2012 - 11:08 AM, said: There are different models of the Contours. Oddly, the difference between them is whether the battery is removable or not. IIRC, the GPS and intro version…
- Camera Reviews............ I just bought a Contour ROAM (for 25% of what a GoPro Hero2 would cost me), so the GoPro would have to be 4x better to be worth the money. The ROAM has one big advantage over my other vid camera (a Tachyon XC) - it is…
- Sport riding while staying seated [image: View Post]johnmark101, on 27 January 2012 - 01:01 PM, said: Hanging off the inside of the bike allows you to take a given corner at a specific speed while using less lean angle than if you were taking that same…
- Sport riding while staying seated I'll throw in my oldeguy comment to this interesting topic. I've done a bit of roadracing, and can say with some confidence that on a dry track the only way to get the ultimate speed is to get your ass off the seat. You…
- SPEED channel rider education I happened to catch that particular scene - and the show (Stuntbusters) was instantly off of my 'watch' list.
- ContourROAM video cam for $89 shipped (SOLD OUT) Got mine yesterday, just gotta pickup the Micro SD card and I'll add it to my Tachyon XC. The ROAM is definitely easier to use. The best feature is the 'one touch' turn on/record.
- Riding Skills [image: View Post]festertruck, on 18 October 2011 - 07:40 PM, said: On this topic... Headed to California superbike school 2 day program in just over a month. Looking forward to improving the skills and having a blast…
- Handlebar risers for an '86 VFR750 [image: View Post]frodus, on 13 October 2011 - 04:20 PM, said: [image: View Post]FoothillRyder, on 13 October 2011 - 02:29 PM, said: Thanks guys. I'm looking at the LSL/Speigler kit, as it just replaces the existing…
- Handlebar risers for an '86 VFR750 Thanks guys. I'm looking at the LSL/Speigler kit, as it just replaces the existing clipons at the top of the forks with the mounts for the standard handlebar - no drilling involved. I'm thinking I might be okay with a…
- Handlebar risers for an '86 VFR750 I'm gettin' old, and while the riding position on my '86 VFR is comfortable enough to ride the bike all day without pain, I find it difficult to do that if the roads are both twisty and bumpy. Problem is my neck gets…
- my vfr project frankenVIXXER :D Hoping for a full recovery and the grand finale of BitsaVixxer!
- Haven't ridden in years, please help. I'm not an expert; but my understanding is that the R/R cannot properly rectify and regulate voltage if the stator is not supplying a 'balanced' 3-phase voltage. If you know that the resistance is out of spec on the…
- GoPro! Highway 36 Trailer Very nicely done lad! I wish I had the patience to do that.
