Bar end mirrors and Renthal bars
This is really just a follow up on a posting by Jericho, who was looking at these: http://www.ebay.com/itm/2Pcs-Universal-Motorcycle-Bike-Bar-End-Rearview-Mirrors-7-8-22mm-/221446829403?pt=Motorcycles_Parts_Accessories&var=&hash=item338f42755b&vxp=mtr If you look at the parts photo you w...

Re: So, here's my rap
But I think I'll start with levers and mirrors. I was thinking of these: http://www.ebay.com/itm/2Pcs-Universal-Motorcycle-Bike-Bar-End-Rearview-Mirrors-7-8-22mm-/221446829403?pt=Motorcycles_Parts_Accessories&var=&hash=item338f42755b&vxp=mtr I bought a pair of these. They work well enou...

Re: Indicator warning "system" advice sought
If I remember correctly, my old Yamaha Virago had self-cancelling indicators -> kept going forever at a standstill but just turned itself off after running for a few hundred yards. Is this sort of thing available as a third-party add on? A friend of mine had an FJ1200 and I seem to remember that ha...

Re: Indicator warning "system" advice sought
I'm kinda kidding, No, you're not. This was not intended to be a thread about me or my riding but about the practicality of having a warning system. Unlike you, I obtained my bike license first, aged 16. Also, at age sixteen and seven months I was riding my first 650 Triumph. Quite a while ago – an...

Re: Indicator warning
Was there not something about blind people confusing the indicator buzzers with the tone used on pedestrian crossings and stepping out on bikes I've seen that comment elsewhere. If it's true, I think it comes down to probability. Am I more likely to run down (or, just as likely, have someone else r...

Re: Indicator warning "system" advice sought
I have only owned one bike that had an indicator buzzer on it, it lasted for the journey home after buying the bike and was then disconnected.. Know what you mean, Miz, but I just keep forgetting to cancel the indicators. So far it's just been embarassing, but… Put it down to senility or too many y...

Re: Indicator warning "system" advice sought
Maybe I should have done more research before posting. I came across this, which seems to be the brake system related one: http://www.audicator.com/audicator.htm Thinking about it, the three-wire one mentioned previously should be good enough. In fact it may be down to two wires if I can fit the uni...

Re: Indicator warning "system" advice sought
Should have mentioned that I did do a quick search and came up with this, but maybe someone has a better alternative or a good way of fitting something like this: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/MOTORBIKE-INDICATOR-WARNING-ALARM-ADJUSTABLE-DELAY-0-20-FLASHES-A-MUST-HAVE/261169682641?_trksid=p0.c100204.m31...

Indicator warning "system" advice sought
I've finally decided I have to fit an indicator alarm/buzzer "system" before something regrettable happens. I suppose I'm being lazy, but it seems sensible to ask if anyone else has done this and how it was done. The principle problems seem likely to be how to integrate the wiring required...

Re: What did you do to your Raptor today
Ooh, I'll be keen to hear how this goes, I struggle after a 300km day, and usually need a bum break every hour, I've thought my budget might stretch to one of these $15 cushions from homeart and try to cobble something together myself, shed time is fun time! http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/161282848607 ...

Re: How fast has your Raptor been?
I saw a program on tv where they compared the same car with different fuels, surprisingly out of the 98 ron fuels, the Shell V power gave more hp than the bp ultimate which was the worst performer of the higher octane petrol . Maybe it was the ethanol content… :shock: (Since BP Ultimate is ethanol-...

ONLY FOR THE SERIOUSLY NERDY/BORED/FANATICAL Just to muddy my own water, so to speak, I was googling the history of ethanol as a fuel. Much of it seems to be political (so, no change there).

rear brake on the raptor has always annoyed me so I never use it Here's a reason to do so: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DvxsM4QaFAA Sorry, that was the best I could find, maybe someone else has something better.
