Flasher relays are under the seat on the fender...

More than likely under the trunk! I relocated mine with short extensions. The flasher relays are pretty robust and seem to have an extremely low failure rate, but when they fail it is a PIA to get to them.

I am looking at your list of Oklahoma motorcycle laws and I see the last one says "Accept Motorcycle Endorsement From Other States" . That's something I hope every state accepts. I've never even considered the possibility my license would be invalid anywhere in the USA or Canada. I wonder if that a...

I wonder how much current was going through it to get it hot enough to do that.

I put my money on a either a bad connector or solder joint.

I disassembled the switch and cleaned and lubricated it. But you get to see what is in there. Admin has a great tip about putting the switch in a big plastic bag because there are springs that will attempt to escape.

Replacing the incandescent bulbs with LEDs will be the quickest way to freshen up the look. The other way would require either modifying the existing parts yourself (like the reflector panels on the saddlebags and fairing) or purchasing aftermarket replacement parts. If you are handy with a solderin...

Is yours a right hand drive?

Are you entertaining ideas of reaching 300 mph?

I put on a set of bias ply E4s in December and now have a little over 4K on them. They have a slightly harder compound in the center which should give you good mileage. The handling is just as good if not better than the E3 in the turns and our rain grooves don't seem to affect the 1500 at all. I wa...

...Some one from back in Georgia bought something from a store there for $500ish bux, a store that ran the sale up as "Card Not Presented".....

Sounds like the employee of the merchant was not trained to reject the sale or could have been in on the fraud.

You should try a wolf whistle. I read where wolves are the natural predators of deer. That would clear the area.

You've gone from them paying partial attention to the outside world to zero attention, as they focus all of their attention on their phone trying to figure out what happened, and reconnect their call, or re-send the failed text message, etc...

You can't go wrong with a few more lights all around!
As far as the rear of the bike goes... there are also units that will initially flash your tail lights when you apply the brakes and then stay on steady. This is a good attention-getter.

Precision and high technology finally meet!

What a find.

Since I know how and when to down-shift... I, like you, do tend to spend the majority of my time with the OD light happily shining on my instrument panel. Most of the streets and roads around here do not have stop signs at every intersection and the highways are, well , just that. No need to have my...

Good heads up riding!
Sometimes I think I have perfected invisibility when I'm on my wing. Even with all the extra lights!


Note to self: Focus on the "Wimpy Horn" issue.

I have heard that Pledge Furniture Wax works pretty well for restoring a like new appearance. (Not the lemon variety)

Yup. They do look awesome with LEDs in them. LED Side 1.JPG First photo is with the flash, the second is without. The flash shows up the reflective pin-striping. Its black pin-stripe on a black bike. As for the LEDs in the marker... my lens fell off and I took the opportunity to change the lighting ...

The 501 would be too large to fit without major modification. The four inch will fit well.

These are a little bit more but better quality.

A lot of us are using the Polk Audio DB401 for the rear and DB351 for the front. A little bit of the mounting flange must be snipped off on the 351's to accommodate the mounting screw, but they will fit right in and sound great. I believe these are also weather resistant as were the stock speakers. ...

Assuming you don't want to just change the bulb to the LED type, you will have to gently heat the assembly to soften the adhesive. You can do this with a heat gun or in an oven at very a low temp.

Hello fellow wingers I am asking how to take apart break or saddle light assembly to change the bulb with led light because of is strong seal.Is there any how to or any suggestion please? Thank you and God bless !

You have a long list of bikes under your picture. Which one are you referring to?

The clear protection cover is all cracked and brittle falling apart on the radio should I remove all of this before I install the new radio decal I have, I hate to see it peel away months from now because I did not do this step. Has anyone else done this. Yes. Remove the old one first. I replaced t...
