    Geza Gear Covers - Anyone have one?

    I searched the site for "geza" but it returns no results. Does anyone have experience with this company? Looks to be a pricey option, but if it's worth the added cost, I'd likely get one, since my bike sit outsides all day during the workday. Geza Custom Motorcycle Covers Stretch Fit Towable

    Japanese Industrial Standard (JIS) Drivers

    So, last week I posted that I was having some issues loosening some screws, and it was suggested that I try to pick up a JIS screwdriver to work the screws. I just wanted to let everyone know that these things worked so well it's actually hard to believe. I was working in low light, and I...

    Compressor Recommendations

    Does anyone have any recos for a portable air compressor? I was looking at the Stop & Go. I like how it can plug into my tender wire. Was wondering if anyone has used anything else that they like a lot. Thanks.

    Quick Tips: Loosening Overwrenched Screws

    Grip Removal

    Does anyone have any tips for removing the grips? I need to get to the clips that hold the inner bar weights in place so that I can install new hand guards. Will squirting some WD-40 between the grip and bar work? Thanks.

    Front wheel free play

    Howdy, So my bike has been in the garage for the winter and I went out this morning to give the front wheel a spin since I didn't want the same part of the tire on the concrete the entire off season (bike is on center stand). What I noticed was that there was no free play in the front...

    Turn Signal Handguards Wiring Question

    All, I know most of you chose to go with the Barkbusters Handguards, but I just can't get over the massive wordmark on the VPS plastics. I saw these Acerbis guards on Shoemonkey's bike in a recent thread and really like them. Especially with the added visibility of the LEDs. I emailed them...

    Posi-Taps & LED Bar

    I was looking at the AdMore LED bar and was hoping I could ask you guys a few questions, considering I know nothing about electrical work: - Is anyone familiar with Posi-Taps. Are the effective? They seem fairly easy to use. - Will I need some sort of power booster or something like that...

    Damaged Top Box

    Hi All, So I was cleaning my bike and set my Honda OEM top box, which I had for a total of 3 days, on an unstable shelf which eventually resulted in the top box falling from about 5 feet straight onto my garage floor. As I'm a little OCD, I wanted to see if anyone might be interested in...

    Hello from Chicago

    Hi All. Been reading the boards for about a month now. Replied to a few as well. Just wanted to introduce myself, maybe see if there are any other owners in my area. Just got my bike back from the shop after its 600 mile service yesterday. Had the Honda top bag and panniers installed as well...

    Panniers require fairing to be cut?

    Just read a post that indicated that part of the fairing needs to be cut away in order to accomodate the Honda OEM side panniers? Can anyone else confirm this? Perhaps show some photos of the end result? I have some of these on backorder, and don't like the idea of having to cut away at the...
