Been getting warmer at the house. Above 45○ at 0600. Colder as I move away from the ocean.
Love the firstgear heated jacket and grips.
Having it be lighter is very nice. Many road construction projects around the bay and light helps navigate the hazards.

I like the flexibility you have on your setup. How did this plug into the Honda sub-harness? Is there an another "kit" to connect these lights to function with the headlight.
Just installed heated grips. Awesome farkle. Went with OEM. Killer expensive (ebay). But no splicing and very neat installation - switched off with Key etc. Hate electrical and I was able to do it - with time (~3 hours) and Blue Moon!
Live at the CA coast and it gets pretty "CA" cold at...
I bought my first heated jacket liner this October (Firstgear - $169.99). I absolutely think it's the berries! My commute is 70 miles from the ocean up to 2200 feet and then back down to see level at San Francisco Bay. My hands use to freeze at 40. Not any more!!! I started with a wireless...
Installed the heated liner lead under the seat. Using the wireless troller. Just ordered a mounted version. Easier adjustment while riding.
Heated Grips arrived. They will get installed when the new heat troller arrives.
Had a drop unstrapping tie downs while on the trailer. Fell over onto the 12" rails. No visible damage. At least it didn't flop onto the ground.
Hope I don't make that mistake 2 times.
Here are some pics of comparison of the 3 screens which I have had. I am running the Vstream tall touring for winter and Vstream sport touring for summer.
V-stream touring (tall touring - clear color) vs. Puig touring
VStream vs Stock Honda - height
Vstream vs Stock Honda -...
I have a puig for sale :)
Not so much a mistake. Just too small -especially for winter. Have the tall (and ugly) V-stream. Will get a shorty for summer. Love the mounting of the v-stream.
I am looking into grips for this winter. I froze last winter on the bike. My new snowmobile has heated grips and I don't wear a glove on the left hand at all so I can wipe off the melted snow from the face shield.
So heated grips on the bike is a high priority this year. I am trying to...
I ride in full gear daily. As others have mentioned, those around you find it pretty cool you ride a bike. Many people have approached me to talk about "riding" that never would have otherwise. It seems that I know more people now since I started commuting on the bike. I take the helmet off...

My pillion has always been hard to open. I always need push down and wait for the click of the release latch - to open.
I tanked up 3 miles from Corbin. (74.1 MPG) And it was not any worse (although my trunk and top case were full - so I had tied the old seat to the pillion. Very...
I think a custom fit seat should bring more comfort than a non custom seat. From this point forward, I would expect to have a custom fit seat on any bike that even thinks about giving my butt a hard time:)
Although, I used to be very flat footed on the NC, now my heal is raised a fair bit...
