After 80 miles with the Dennis V. carbs, the plugs are all a nice light tan. Before there would be some blackened and some white. I hear ya on the trusting...
I you ride on roads where your the only one out there then chances are when the alarm sounds he's already got you. The detectors work best on freeways where...
... Case in point - a few years back heading north out of Daytona after Bike Week my V1 started burping intermittently. I slowed down to the limit +/- a wee...
Your pump is probably OK, if you want to see if it shuts off, put a kink in the output hose going to that bucket of gas. If Dennis just did your carbs they are...
Sounds like it can't hurt to have one and may save my ass sometime. I'm especially paranoid because they are now using non-patrol-looking vehicles here in...
... Probably 90% of the hard core Iron Butt types use the V1. It isn't waterproof, so you have to rig an enclosure if you want it out in the rain (quite a few...

it CAN hurt to have one now that i'm not a punk kid anymore, i get out of MOST of my tickets with a detector you have a 0% chance of getting off with the...
Well, I've got to pull that carb block so I might as well fiddle with the mixture screws (I'm running a little lean). Where are the screw located and what do...
... How so? The only way that I could see is if you have it on your dash in plain sight screaming its little head off. Then again, us people here in Virginny...
Not true, you hide it in a tank bag and use a radar screamer. Most radar is left on, you will detect it. It is worth having. Sure, some is instant on but if...
Another point against a radar detector: I used to have one and it went off so far before I got to the cop I usually got tired of going slow (defined back then...
Hi All, I just signed on, I'm new here. I bought a naked '93 GSX 1100G this past thursday. I wasn't really looking for this type of bike but the deal came up...
Hey Morgan, Welcome to the G-men and glad to have ya on board! We have several Texas based G-men...maybe they can hook up with you for a ride. I think the more...
Glenn I was just trying to think about all the locations where an air leak could occur, you may be able to come up with a couple yourself. I was not insulting...
KyJohn, Wow, thanks for the offer! I managed to locate one through a website called "Findmypart.com" that is a relay service for used parts suppliers... they...
I had the opportunity to view Bill E's G-sidecar rig yesterday when he rode it over to my house. This rare type sighting could be compared to seeing Bigfoot or...
Beer & Bill, I'm really interested in seeing that sidecar setup since my good buddy Mike (who ya'll may remember comes to all of our rallies) can no longer...
The weather down here in Louisville has been incredible this past week. It was 81 yesterday and is supposed to get up to 85 today! My wife and I went on a...
Yesterday I put a few G things on eBay in case anyone is interested: Bill Mayer seat, Corbin seat, engine guard bars, and a pair of Flanders handlebars. The...
I rode.....Carolina Motorsports Park. Took my Gixxer out there for a track day. What a freaking blast. My first time at that track, suits to my riding style...
Bopped up to Mid Ohio for the superbike shoot out on Sunday. Bumped into Eraldo Ferracci (Fast by Ferracci) when I parked the bike. Almost dropped it in the...
Hi John and the rest of you rallyers, I was the last one out after breakfast on Sunday, and met only a brief drizzle enroute to Frederick, MD, where I stayed...
Greetings! I just picked up a Gsx1100g last week, only because a friend needed to sell a couple of his bikes, and he knew I was an easy target. The other was a...
Hey Jim, Glad you had a good time at the Fall rally and you made it home safely. You looked like a G ghost when you came riding in out of the pitch black...
