  1. I have the Diamond R saddle bag rail lights - and am very happy with the additional lighting in the rear and sides of the bike. I also added the LED's to the tail light and turn signals as mentioned above.
  2. J & M has a great selection - especially if you are wanting to talk with other bikes in the group. Or, SCALA is good as well.
  3. What an idiot - one day he will get his - but also endanger some poor innocent bystander. Does bring a new meaning to lane splitting though
  4. WOW - that is one awesome looking m/c.
  5. Great music. At first, thought you had a semi following you - cool way to mount your camera. Good job - thanks for sharing.
  6. Dang - that gril was amazing - her facial expressions told a story with her music as well.
  7. If only modern day vehicles were that easy - that was an interesting video.
  8. Pete, go new - and Buckeye Performance seems to be the only reputable one making such a stator - not sure of any others. I would also recommend replacing the rectifier to their higher output rectifier - most anyone generally recommends replacing both at the same time.
  9. First, thanks for the feedback, guys. I didn't initially share enough information like a hurried dummy. In Jan, I had upgraded to Rick's HO stator and rectifier. Got somewhere around 12K miles out of the stator. I will state that this week I have been in contact with Rick, and he is being very cooperative in helping me with this situation - they are out of stock at the moment on these replacement stators, but hope to have a new production very soon. I am installing a new Yamaha stock stator that I had initally received under warranty to get me through the next few weeks - let Rick test the old one, etcetc. Also, having the dealership test all the connections, etc., but for this particular repair, I have taken the bike to my local dealer who is Honda / Suzuki certified - but their senior mechanic working on this bike is 4 star whatever certified from Yamaha as well. Originally, I had a senior mechanic at a Yamaha dealership around here install Rick's stator and rectifier. What I was looking for - but probably didn't ask the correct question - was is there a page somewhere that I could pull from the web - that would give me the correct "readings" or whatever its called to compare the readings I am going to get after this stator has been installed?
  10. Is there a charging diagnostic page(s) somewhere I can find easily? I need to get that as soon as possible to diagnose / test my charging system on my 2005 RSTD. I tried some of the links in this post - and being not knowledgeable on this "stuff", I couldn't find anything. Any help will be appreciated!!!!
  11. Great to read you guys are relatively OK - sorry that that mishap occured.
  12. Wow - Dan - you had some restraint that I don't know I would have had. Good on ya and congratulations on your patience. I'm probably with couple of the others here - if I had seen him get in a car - I would have been on to 911 in a heart beat.
  13. Hang in there, Steve - time will fly by before you know it. I haven't had what you had, but when I had my neck surgery / fusion last year, the doctor had me off the bike for 6 months - anything sooner he said would mess stuff up. Having met during that period of time, and known people who didn't listen to their doctor's with the same surgery I had, I did listen to my doc - now I didn't even know I had had the surgery.
  14. Good luck, Don, will be keeping everything crossed for a speedy recovery.
  15. Hey, that is a very interesting concept you have, Buddy - sort of see where you are heading with that. Like the skull, Brian. Great ideas - let's keep 'em coming.
  16. Prayers and thoughts for a speedy recovery - Rod.
  17. WOW - that is amazing to see how high that car got airborne.
  18. It was very close to this photo. Hope this helps.
  19. What part of the state of you located in Tim? There are some of us here in the Bay Area as well - couple or so are located in the Valley - due to the length of our state, we pretty much are all over the area, but "we are out there" - LOL.
  20. Just got back into the house from doing this ride this weekend, Squid - that is an awesome area up there!!! Rick - where ya going to be - maybe couple of us could hook up with ya!
  21. I just spoke with Kurt this evening. He is in the middle of working with a KOA and possibly another campground there - as well as couple of additional hotels (on top of the Skyline we have already lined up). Many of the places are currently filled up and extremely busy - with folks returning from Sturgis and final visitors trying to beat the snow (it snowed today at 7,000 feet there) - or the owners are on vacation - whatever - so there will be some definitive information / pricing that will get posted up as soon as the final negotiations have been worked out. Just thought I might share the latest news.
  22. Gotta watch out for those "birds of prey" ya know - LOL.
  23. Ridin' the steeds to Cody - gonna be a blast:thumbsup:
