in the topic Helmets in the forum Motorcycle Discussions

Outlaw makes the ultralight 1/2 helmet that's DOT approved. They were just released last year, and there have been supply issues so vendors are having problems getting them. http://www.amazon.com/dp/B0034ND4JO/ref=asc_df_B0034ND4JO2500398?smid=A2KGOPCQK5LP0X&tag=sdcbing593-20&linkCode=asn&creative=395105&creativeASIN=B0034ND4JO This post was edited by Jay at May 7, 2013 11:32 AM EDT

in the topic Universal Laws in the forum Off-Topic Discussions

I have an almost lost bolt story... I was riding in the mountains of West Virginia. I noticed my mirror sagging, and when I went to adjust it, it was wobbling all over. Then I realized that the bolts holding my grip and master cylinder onto the bars were visibly backing out while I was going down the road. I pulled over and put them in as tight as I could by hand, but had to constantly twist them with my thumb as I rode down the road to keep them from falling out, until I got to a hardware store where I could buy a Torx set so I could properly tighten them.

I just put a Michelin Commander II on my front last month. I've been pleased with it so far.

in the topic road side service programs? in the forum Motorcycle Discussions

I'd say white should mean stop. Tying a white rag on the door handle or closing the window on a white rag has been a symbol of distress for cars for ages. Why change the color and confuse people for bikes?

I try to stop, but most often I encounter that awkward moment when you realize they're peeing on a tree.

LOL, we call those that hover their legs out there at low speed "outriggers". As soon as the bike is moving my feet are on the pegs.

in the topic Easter Bunny Pulled Over for Driving Motorcycle without Helmet in the forum Motorcycle News

That's a very scary point Steve. He should have been wearing the helmet, and had the bunny head in the sidecar, then a block away, pull over and put he bunny head on before pulling into the event.

in the topic Highway bars/engine guards in the forum Motorcycle Discussions

Get it!!! I put one on my bike, and it is well worth it. It saves the bike from damage in small mishaps. Once I was riding in a gravel parking lot at 3 MPH. Car pulls out without looking. I hit the brake, and go down. Bike rested on engine guard bar instead of falling over, bending the bars, denting the tank, crushing my leg, etc. It also saved me a few weeks ago when I dropped my bike on my leg taking it off of a truck. I believe not only did it prevent damage to the bike, but it provided room for my leg underneath, saving me from a broken leg. Think of it as cheap insurance. The bar is about $200. A new tank & paint is over $1,000. This post was edited by Jay at April 11, 2013 1:16 PM EDT

in the topic Be Aware of what "they" can't see in the forum Motorcycle Discussions

I'm paranoid when I ride too. I wear blaze orange and reflective gear. All the lights on my bike have been upgraded to extra bright LED's. I upgraded the stock horn to an air horn. I feel that its saved me a couple times, but you still have to have an escape route planned at all times because some people just cannot, or will not pay attention while driving.

in the topic How Many Miles To Change Tranny Oil ? in the forum HD Touring

Oclaf is right. It is illegal for a dealer/manufacturer to tell you that you have to use a specific brand oil to maintain a warranty, unless they supply it to you for free. As long what you use meets the minimum manufacturer's requirements, they cannot deny a warranty claim based on choice of oil.

in the topic Question: New Yamaha or Used Harley? in the forum Motorcycle Discussions

I say ride what you like/want/can afford. As they age, Harleys will depreciate slower. If you're planning on not riding the bike till the wheels fall off, Halrey's higher residual value may help you get into a newer bike at trade in time. Otherwise, it just don't matter. yes there are Harley snobs out there that only want to associate with other Harley riders, but those people are jerks anyway, and I try to avoid then anyway. Test ride everything you can get your hands on, and make the best decision for you. Just about any bike made now will be reliable if properly maintained and not abused.

in the topic How Many Miles To Change Tranny Oil ? in the forum HD Touring

Although my bike is a Dyna, it has the same motor and transmission that is put in the bigger bikes. I use synthetic everything, and change transmission, primary, and engine oil every 5,000 miles. With synthetic fluids the transmission and clutch behave so much nicer. On conventional oil It would miss gears, and shift hard. As soon as I switched to synthetic, all those problems went away. It shifts real smooth and nice now. Currently I use Mobil1 V-Twin 20W50 in the crankcase and the primary, and a special synthetic transmission lube that I got from my dealer. I couldn't be happier.
