Use Chrome. Edge in my opinion is a PIA. The College I work at dont even want us to use it, they have us use Firefox It updates Microsoft garbage when they want it to and it is susceptible to bugs more so than Chrome or Firefox.

Looks good. I wore a Simpson shorty for a few years. Then when Scorpion came out with a shorty that had a drop down sun shield I bought one. It's still my shorty when I wear one. Usually I wear my Bell Mag 9

From my experience doing just a valve adjustment, I would say not. It was all I could do to get valve cover off. If studs come up thru heads, you wont have enough room to go up and over.

So what is your plan on headset? You going BT or wired? Are you trying to run GPS thru bike stereo system? Does the GPS have a headset/audio out jack?

I see this going to be a settlement somewhere in the middle. But this is why our health care insurance is so freaking high. Why does it cost $800 for self pay, twice as much for medicare and 50x if an insurance company is involved. The hospital somehow deemed it necessary to transport less than 40 miles by air???? Who is on the air ambulance board of directors at that hospital. BS call me an Uber. I hope it gets all settled out without them going to the poor house.

Looked at the wire diagram for the HD vs RSV. Looks like they run 2 shields separate and a 2 wire mic. Which would give the 7 pin. I will admit I didnt study it real hard. I have some 5 pin plugs if your feeling froggy and want to give it a shot. Maybe use a couple jumper wires and see if you can make it work, then cut it off and solder in the 5 pin.

Long time no see Barry. Good to see you got a day off.

There is ways to get around it. I think it's called "frewire" from SENA. But it aint cheap they alone are like $250

Heck at that price go wireless with SENa or one of those units. I have the SMH 10 (which is a little older now) and they work great. Wont help you for bike radio unless you get a blue tooth transmitter. I think I still have my 5 pin plugin to 3.5 output adapter here somewhere.

How bad? Could a body shop take care of it? If so see if the shop will repair it.

Whats up the headsets you have? The RSV takes a 5 pin, are the HD the newer 6 pin? I think anyways

Boy the few threads I have read on forums, it is almost like someone tried hard to make the unit hard to operate. From day one with the firmware update on.

Good luck. I'm still working on the boss to let me replace my pick up. I'd still like to have a Vision, but I dont see that happening.

Yea the whole pharmacy thing in our health care system needs watching. Some drugs are cheaper to buy off the street than thru your insurance program. The wife just ordered some of her meds thru our med program. It has went up to $53 our cost for 90 days, so she looked up a couple online programs and it was over $330 for the same. Yikes

Hope this get straightened out Don. Best of luck.

Also the aftermarket ones take a different air filter from the OEM if i'm not mistaken.

I had the same year 900 in a classic model. Put 40k+ on that bike. Some long haul to NC 1 up and 2 up, some long 1 up to Ohio and back to Fla. I went from the 900 to the 2nd gen RSV. Was a big jump in weight. I rode the new venture when it came out up in Daytona. Defiantly lighter feeling than the 2nd gen. Felt similar to my Victory XCT. Then engine for that Indian should be good and a bit cooler on ya. It was going to go in the "new" Victory touring bike that was in the works to replace the Vision. My advise is by a nice clean used one unless a dealer will get you a good deal.

I beg your pardon Sir. I was enlisted and know whom my parents were. LOL But thanks, I knew where it was because I used it to slip the forks up in mine to lower front end. Takes some doing, but it sure helped short legged me.

Try looking thru here.

For me, I find it very hard to pay $150 or whatever for a pair of sneaker looking shoes for only riding. Heck I wont pay that for boots for work I use 5 days a week. And then if I dont get over a year out of them I thnk I get ripped off. My go to work boot is a Wolverine dual shock. Good riding boot also if you prep them right. Most GI's will know what I'm talking about.

I bought a pair of Bates Boots a couple years ago. I have a pair of Himalayan gortex boots about 10 or 12" tall. Nice in cooler weather and long road trips. But I was looking for a little shorter boots so I got some bates. They are a military style with a side zip and about 6" or so but an over ankle boot. But Bates does make some powersports boots now

Side stand switch could make sense. Hit bump pulling in somewhere, and now no contact. The other thing I would look at would be the handelbar switch.

Unique for sure. Needs a taller windshield though. LOL

I just let the dirt pile up along with the miles. When I get caught in the rain most of it rinses off. LOL Actually I use plain ole spray detailer from Oriely's or one of them. Its a blue bottle Ice I think it is. Every time I see one of those F 11 ads on you tube I think to myself snake oil?

I seat the bead up on tire after install. Then deflate and pry down a spot. Being the tire has been seated, usually it is no problemO to get it to seat up. I actually have been using knock off beads off e-bay from a place out in AZ. If you really want to do it up, mount the tire get your beads in and deflate agin. Carry it on down to your local auto dealer service dept and they probably have nitrogen you can get the tire serviced up there. The dryer the air the better, limits the amount the pressure will vary upon heating and cooling.
