Re: Baby, it's cold out there...

Interesting that in the hotter weather that the "feels like' like temp gets hotter than actual temp. That's one of the reasons I don't wear mesh gear.

Re: Sargent Seat Opinions

I love mine. It has been the only seat I have had so I can't compare to others.

Re: Pilot Road 3

I agree. I have done the same through the years as the one model is going away and the new model will usually take it's place.

Re: Clear Lens Breakdown

I can tell you that the clear lenses are way more brittle than the orange ones. I ended up going back with the orange although I did hit them with some "clear smoke" spray paint on the inside to give them a dark tinted look. I'm not sure how legal this is but it looks good!

Re: I am so excited to be back!

Welcome back! I'm 5'6" and have the Sargent seat as well. I don't mind not being able to flat foot the bike for the exchange of this comfortable seat. I sold my MT risers to someone on this board years ago. It made me too upright especially on the highway.

Re: 2002 R1150R Sputtering

When my hall sensor went it would not start again at all. I replaced both my coils a few years ago because I was getting sputtering in the rain only. The new ones fixed that.

Re: How to determine which hose goes to which port when replacing gas tank?

I have made this mistake as well. Next time you disassemble, leave one barb connector on the tank side line and the other barb connector on the bottom side line.

Re: Smart turn system

I have this which does the same thing although the safer turn system seems "smarter". I like that the Signalminder allows me to run my directionals as running lights for more visibility at night for sure.
