I got my wife the gerbing jacket liner. Works very well. She wears chaps when it's cold out and the liner. Most of the time all she needs to do is wear the liner and not even turn it on because of the extra insulation. However when the temps drop or if it's windy the liner keeps her toasty. Body heat loss (at least for her) is more noticeable than legs

Yes that works Now as long as the grey hair leaves my brain cells alone so that I remember we are good to go...

Sounds GREAT Ben. Looking forward to this.. Count us in.

there is a guy in this area that kept the two tone scheme but used brown and orange like A&W colors. Different and looks Amazing.. wish I had a photo

Have not met you yet Puc. Actually looking forward to that at some point. In the meantime saying a prayer for you to get better sooner than later..

Hey Bongobobny.. I know you are south of Buffalo a bit but wondering how you are making out with the snow? How much have you gotten so far? AND BIG TOM? You are closer and more or less in it's path.. Are you OK?

Hey Evan When did you get a time machine? Can I come along for the trip?

Thank you Puc.. now what do I do with the liquid in my eyes?

Yup washing is a necessary evil on occasion.. maybe next time I'll invite you over to watch and take pics:happy-emoticon:

Letting the Blonde go was a VERY hard thing to do and I still miss her.. IF I had the space I would have owned two bikes..

In my opinion it is just a matter of time and the "upgrade" will be necessary. Even though I'm an Old Fart and hate change I realize that sometimes it is inevitable.. I'd say that now is as good a time as any and you've already spent the many hours and sleepless nights trying to get this right. I am sure that I am not alone in appreciating you and what you do for this site and all of us that call it home.. So I'd say go for it and we will all get use to it.. I'm sure there will be some growing pains and a learning curve but hey.. It's all about the people not the face of the site..

There use to be a member here (Rumboogy I think) that runs a formum just for zumo. http://www.zumoforums.com/ and you may get someone there that can answer this question

Well in the spring I bought an MM RSV from my friend Abdul. It has taken me a whole summer to actually feel like it is my bike. My 84 Blonde was sold quickly and I was torn for quite awhile about that. She was my baby for a long time and I had spent time and $$$ making her unique. Local folks have seen the new RSV while Abdul had it and some have seen it while I've had it. She came with a lot of extra$ but I took a couple of them off and added some of my own and now she is feeling like mine.. Also we have experienced a few things which also makes for a bonding time. Twice over the summer I've had charging issues (which is a longish story I won't get into at this time) one of which happened while away in PA on Vacation. All seems good now though. Got a question.. There is a large chunk of chrome on the rear of the front fender. I was curious if this is a MM thing or an add on? I'm attaching some pics because I know the rules and want to brag a little.. even got the vanity plate I wanted... Last photo has yours truly in it so ya'll can get a gander at the ugly dude that gets to ride this pretty steed

I believe they are the same.. I know the stator, middle gear and water pump are because I've used them and I think the tranny cover is also the same

Wow!!! Sounds AWESOME!! Congrats on the 25 years.. Hope you guys really enjoy the time away in Paradise.. I think we are all looking forward to pics..

It's a little tight but I put the straps over the bottom brace of the triple tree and ratchet them tight enough to pull the forks down about half way. Not worried about bending anything and stays solid. Use the rear crash bars to stabilize the back end from bouncing around. Yes trailering an RSV is sacrilegious BUT if she is dead (bad regulator and stranded on the hwy miles from home) you sometimes just want to get her home to get her fixed..

1082 Canadian.. 180,000 Kms Looks and Runs GREAT...

I was having this problem (still do on IE) and switched to Firefox. The interface is more similar to IE than Chrome but both work just fine..

Rick's makes a good stator and I would guess his regulator would be good as well..

I don't know how many here have experienced this but it is NOT fun.. After a very nice Wednesday night ride with MarCarl I headed home and checked the site and mail etc.. Started feeling some pain in my side but at first thought it was the way I was sitting. The pain got worse and worse and came in waves until the point where on a bad wave I started heaving. Didn't really bring anything up but went through the motions.. After this the pain would subside from a 10+ down to a manageable 4 or 5. Once a wave hit I actually started looking forward to the heaves because after that the pain would start to reduce. My wife who was asleep woke up and started asking me if I wanted to go to emerg but I was thinking Gas and was hoping it would pass. Nope not a chance. It just kept getting worse and I could not handle it any more so she called for an ambulance and off to the hospital I go. Spent the rest of the nite passing a Kidney Stone.. Sure hope this never happens again and also hope none of you have to experience it. Worst pain I have ever had.. Now sitting here in somewhat of a Daze due to lack of sleep and a dull ache in the side (around a 3) Got so much to do but don't feel up to it at all.. So for those of you so inclined a prayer would be appreciated.. Wayne
