  1. Congrats James! You have every right to be proud parents! Wishing your daughter much success! Sure she will realize her dreams!
  2. So sorry for your loss. Prayers for you and your family...
  3. So sorry this year turned out as it did. We were having such a great time. Hope we continue our travels when the time is right. Bless you Mike!
  4. So sorry to hear this news! Similar thing happened to one of our other brothers this summer. Praying for a speedy and complete recovery.
  5. Aw yes... Been there...
  6. Well done! Enjoyed riding along with you to the Skunktown Distillery! Yay New Jersey! Thanks!
  7. Hmm... Trying to recall sequence on my RSV. Believe I get a "F" and mileage count when I get low. When I notice F or when motorcycle sputters, start the auxiliary transfer pump on trike. Takes a few minutes for RSV to recognize new level and restore mileage to pre-event state. Used to get a low fuel light, which I haven't seen in a while.
  8. Have noticed this on my RSV as well. Thanks for tip Joe. According to service manual, fuel meter display will point to fault. If fuel meter startup sequence stops with illuminated "Empty" bar, then "Fuel Sender". If sequence stops with illuminated "Full" bar, then "Fuel Thermistor".
  9. Happy Birthday Evan!
  10. Zero Motorcycle
  11. Fellow rider has written extensively about his Zero motorcycles. He believes he's addicted. "I just now got back to my main house in Reno. I put the bike in the Sport mode and still had 40% left when I got here, after riding the bike very hard but more in the direction of the wind. The max speed I can get (indicated-no GPS) was 88 MPH. But I went up a hill at 88 and when I came down the hill it would still do only 88 MPH indicated. Seems nothing effects the top speed in either mode. Level, uphill, downhill all the same top speed. A few MPH indicated less than the spec of 91 MPH. Next ride I will take a GPS and see what it says my top speed really is. But IAC, it's certainly fast enough for me and it sure handles nicely in the turns. The way the thing accelerates is really something with the no clutch and no shifting, I pass everybody from starts by quite a distance. This bike will get it's best MPG in stop and go traffic because every time the throttle is closed while the bike is moving, the battery is being charged by the motor that then becomes a generator. That doesn't happen much on the freeway. BTW, all the Zero bikes have ABS. -Don- Reno, NV" "I think the name Zero means zero emissions, zero maintenance, zero gas, zero vibration, zero shifting, etc. -Don- Reno, NV" http://www.zeromotorcycles.com/zero-fx/specs.php
  12. Fellow biker insisted that I try his Zero while I was in Reno. I've been riding my RSV trike for seven years now, so it really felt strange to me. First of all, I was up on my tip toes. Power is instantaneous and smooth. It scared me, and I was ready to get off. This fellow has two Zero motorcycles, his second has much more battery capacity.
  13. Nice! Runs on three AA batteries!
  14. She's a beauty James! Glad we got to meet you in Arizona!
  15. Too bad... Believe S5 is the way to go. Have a spare set, but not going to release it given the availability issue.
  16. Broview S5 H4 can actually be submerged in water without effect. Has heat sink, no fan. No concern about fan dying and LED overheating.
  17. Love my Broview S5 H4 headlight. Took 9,202 mile/38 day trip out West this summer at 114*/117* temps with no issues.
  18. Jay, Sorry they didn't deliver the product as advertised. Should work just as well, but it has the built-in fan instead of heatsink. Anxious to hear how you make out. Leo
  19. Harley pulled up behind me one night on recent trip. Had my exact light setup. Loved the way it looked!
  20. or Harley headlight and Grote/Trilliant PAR36 led driving lights.
  21. or with a little more effort... https://www.amazon.com/dp/B017OPE860/ref=tsm_1_fb_lk

  23. Broview S5 H4 has heat sinks, no moving parts. http://www.ebay.com/itm/BroView-S5-Focused-Beam-LED-Headlight-Kit-9005-9006-H7-H11-H4-9004-H13-9007-Bulb-/132064359512
  24. Happened over several days, but trike is taking a nap. Been a busy summer, so had much to do. Changed oil and all filters. Checked fluid levels and tire air pressures. Filled with conditioned fuel. Installed Dion's ignition switch bypass relay. Put dielectric grease on lower connectors and fuses. Greased trike fittings. Charged battery. Ordered touch-up paint. Gave trike a good washing. Put trike to sleep under cover. Would like to go for a nice ride at foliage time. Mid September, we are going to use our cage to visit long time friends in Madison, WI.
