I have been using these lights for several years now and they have been working fine for me. I have replaced them once because they were getting rusty. Once I tried the replacement bulbs but that really didn't work out well at all and for the price of these it really wasn't worth it to me. The one thing I learned was to put a touch of Loctite on the outer ring or they will shake loose. Mine are mounted through one of the bolts on the lower deflectors on the forks. It gives it more of a triangle pattern, the same as a train, which helps oncoming traffic in judging your speed. Here is a previous post of how I mounted them

Oh don't worry about it. Just shove it back in there wrap a bit of duct tape around it and flush it with Seafoam and you'll be good to go. What's the worse that can happen? Ok you could be driving down the road and it COULD come flying out spewing fuel all over your engine and legs just as someone in front of you tosses a lit cigarette out the window causing your bike to light off in a huge fireball distracting the driver of the fuel truck next to you causing them to slam on the brakes, jackknife the rig causing the tanker to rupture and send gasoline over 8 freeway lanes and closing a major thru fare for several weeks because that also lite off and destroyed the bridge you were on. But I really don't think you have ANYTHING to worry about. ;-) Ride Happy, Ride Safe

I've used Haul Bikes and would never use them again. Everything goes thru Milwaukee and gets off loaded and reloaded there plus it takes forever (read weeks not days) Another one I've used is EVT (enclosed vehicle transport) thing I paid $800 for San Diego to Charlotte and transit time was 6 days. Class operation and they kept me well informed the whole time. They haul classic and speciality cars so vehicle is their whole business. Ride Happy, Ride Safe

Glad to hear you all made it back with all your fingers toes and noses. Guess that heated gear worked good for you. Experiencing that arctic cold is something everyone should do at least once. Hard ti complain about it being cold if its not at least -20 after that lol. How you like the Fairbanks ice fogs? Ride Happy, Ride Safe

I have a friend of mine who when ever he was in a bar and seen a girl that caught his eye would go over to the waitress and have a drink sent to her. Right after the drink arrived he would walk over to her table, lean over, and ask her "do you know how to run a Husqvarna?". Of course they would always say "what is a Husqvarna?" or something along that line and he would say "nope your not the one I'm looking for" reach over take her drink, chug it down and then say "I paid for that" and walk away. He always got away with that until the day that the girl answered "not only do I know how to run one, I own two of them myself". He sat down and started talking to her. 6 weeks later they got married. That was over 30 years ago and Jim and Barbara are still married. I guess when you have standards you have standards. And no, I do not know if she still has her Husqvarna's. Ride Happy, Ride Safe

The construction engineering must have been quite a feat. I would love to find out more about the actual construction and the timing it took to build that. Ride Happy, Ride Safe

Many people forget that there have always been brave men and women from our neighbor to the north willing to do what ever had to be done where ever it need to be done to preserve the peace. Sadly many have lost their lives performing this sacred duty. Thank you for sharing this poignant reminder of that with us. Tiffany did a wonderful job with that. The only thing I could not figure out is why she made is so "bleary" almost like looking thru water. Ride Happy, Ride Safe

Yeah we did miss you (wink wink nod nod) Ride Happy, Ride Safe

I was waiting for him to do something I couldn't do ( if I wanted to that is). Finally seen it at the end. Don't know if I could do the jump over the barrier thing but other than that . . . Ride Happy, Ride Safe

Don't know how far south you are but I would expect snow on I81 through Virginia. Seen pictures of snow on the ground in Tazewell which is not to far north of I81 Ride Happy, Ride Safe

Ok, if this is acceptable then I will change it to you, your bike, and a street sign.

Well lets see. I did change the target to ANY "entering state" sign and I changed it to at least 100 miles from your home. I did keep the passenger instead of you and I explained that this was to encourage you to take your sweetie, wife, friend or maybe even a relative out for a ride to share the wonderful experience. There have been many targets I did not stand a chance of getting such as a lighthouse since I am half a day from a shore or the wild cactus since I live in the eastern US not the western US or the snowman since I live in the south. I didn't expect them to be changed just because I could not get them. Some I will have a chance of getting and some I will not. We have riders from all over the place and in some areas of the US they are just coming in to riding season i.e. the Southwest US. I did not think this was intended to be a competition but rather a way to encourage others to get out a ride and then share back with us their "discovery". That being said if you want to change it go ahead and change it. I'm just here for the fun.
