Re: Honda large screen

Has anyone done any mpg calculations after putting a larger screen on???

Just thinking logically, without my fat a$$ acting as a huge windbreaker :lol: , getting a larger screen should increase my mpg's by quite a bit.

Re: Winter gloves

Don't usually like to endorse cheap china made stuff but.....I bought these gloves on ebay for $8. http://www.everbuying.com/Professional-USB-Gloves-E-Warmer-for-Men-p-21426.html Since I wired in a 12v socket, I just got a usb adapter and surprisingly they work pretty well. I use my summer gloves ov...

Re: Dynabeads and the PCX

I chose the Ride-on sealant over the dynabeads because I liked to self-sealing features. So far I like it. I think it rides better and don't feel as much vibration and I'm pretty sure it's not my imagination however, I can't be sure since I know something was put in. Plus I'm still on the original t...

Re: Optimate 4 charger.

I just picked up the Optimate 4. Ironically, I bought it for my pcx but it's just good enough for my Honda Civic battery and that was starting to have some issues. So far it charged up my car battery pretty well. I'm thinking if it extending my car battery another 3 years, it's paid for itself.

Re: Pinlock or Fogcity

Glad for the most part, people are happy with Pinlock.
I was hesitant to spend $60 for a new pinlock faceshield and another $20 for the insert.

I'll switch to Pinlock when my $20 fogcity shield gets unbearable.

Pinlock or Fogcity

Anybody use the Pinlock system for antifog???

I'm using the Fogcity shield. However since it doesn't completely sit flat against the visor, you get some distortion. I'm living with it though because it's better that than have fogging. It works great at antifogging.

Re: How-To: Install a 12v Accessory Socket

Now since it's cold, I'm thinking of using this to control a 30amp relay direct from the battery so I can have heated gloves.

Oh the accessories never ends.

Re: How-To: Install a 12v Accessory Socket

Success!!!!!!! Plus is was easy and with minimal panels removed. Only remove 3 items! So I wired it into the lighting system and it works perfectly. Power when the ignition is on.... and off when the engine is off. It's pulling around 5A with all the lights and engine on. With my phone, it's only 5....

Re: How-To: Install a 12v Accessory Socket

Hey just about to do this install. But I was thinking of running this by some of you experts. My goal is to hook up the accessory plug to the ignition so that it's powered when the bike is on and off when the bike is off. I was thinking of splicing it up to the license light as that's always on when...
