Hello Gus. Yes, you are correct. The o-rings fits in a groove on the male part of the quick disconnect.

Ive got an 02 and am in the process of selling it. It, hopefully is going to Canada. The prospective buyer may need to have paper work stating that the recall on the crimp type hose clamp and o-rings on the fuel lines was performed. He is checking with the broker to see if they can wait till it gets...

Music to my ears.The TT is one thing I want to experience before checking out.

Short of an RT or LT the Aeroflow Touring screen and wings is the way to go. I love Nolan flipup helmets, but my Vega is a lot quieter and cheaper. I held off installing the wings for a while, mainly for aestetic reasons, but once installed they provide a quiet air zone from your waist to your shoul...

Here in the states they will give anybody a license. We, as a group ,are poor drivers,and get worst ,more complacent the longer we drive. I like the old German way of granting licenses. You must attend driving school and spend a lot of $ for it, then have extensive on road training with instructors....

Not who but what. In the mid 50's a Gypsy Tour came through Tyrone Pa. Alll were HD's We lived along a main road and when they came through my family ran to the roadside to watch. They camped at an old racetrack near Altoona and we drove down to where they camped to look at bikes. It is one of my mo...

I would like to have an on /off switch,so in cooler weather you could keep them off. If you mount them in front of the oil coolers you could hide them with screens that are already on the market. BTW on EBAY the was a guy selling oil cooler screen for about $10.00 ,I got one and they are great, espe...

Ditto to all of you. Since my parents have died along with all the Aunts and Uncles and most of the rest of the family, most of the togatherness is gone. We, my SO and I ,go to my sister. This is great and the time togather is enjoyed. But, we live relatively close and visit often anyway. Her kids a...

Agree with MIXR. I too bought the mounting plate from GIVI. It is the only way to go. Bought the V46 box on ebay. I then bought the backpad that mounts on the box. But with the back pad installed my SO had no room. I removed the pad and she uses the box directly for support and has no complaints, ab...

Bought a genuine honest to pete ,right from the dealer, BMW gel this spring for my R1150R. $95.00. I installed it in 15 min. New to me bike , so there was some fumbling. Didn't remove tank. Disconnected hoses and elect. connector and proped rear of tank up with a peice of wood , a little tight but i...

Have Aeroflow Touring shield with Smoke colored ower {recommended}. Great improvement over anything stock, More protection that Cee Bailey. Other than the Hannigan fairing thats available , the Aero flow is about the best protection you can get. I am 5' 11' and this shield protects pretty well. Air ...

Bought an 02 in May. It came with some sort of factory screen. Needed more protection. Bought an Aeroflow touring shield. Marked improvement. Pricey, but I enjoy the ride much better. Wife, back seater, says it is a lot better on her too

Got my Roadster back last W-day. Put 600 mi on her in the last 7 days. Bike runs super. Thanks Velocity Cycle for putting her back togather right the first time Total was $2524.00 Dealer told Ins Co the Motolights caused the frying,so the Ins co wouldn't cover a penny of it. The modification of the ...

A few weeks ago I posted that the harness melted on my 02 Roadster. Bike is being fixed on this coming Monday, the 7th. Approx.$2500. $1800 for harness and the rest is labor. Insurance adjuster called today and gave me the bad news. They will not pay. Dealer claimed the Motolights that were installe...

You lucky dog. I have an 02 Roadster that on Monday coming is going to have a wiring harnessectomy. Burned up rigtht under my seat. Don't know if I'll keep it after repair, depends on if insurance will pick up the bill or not. Have been interested in the F800ST. for quite some time. Great report.

Fuze installed and not blown.

I may be redundant but, I just cannot understand how the lights caused this meltdown. I looked at my ins policy and under exclusions,things they won't pay for' is listed, electrical devices. Gulp!!! I hope the dealer didn't sail me down the river. However a couple of weeks ago on this forum someone ...

Don't know what amp draw of lights are. Lights are not connected to bikes electrical sys . except where is taps into a 12 volt source to power the relay in the light circuit. There is no damage to any part of the lights circuit. The circuits fuze is intact. I talked to a guy at the light vendor. He ...
