@KeukaRyder Well the plan was for her to make at least on pass. BUT, as of today that is not recommended for her as she fell and broke her arm. :( She is ok but in some pain.
If we go I plan on doing both vids and lots of pix.
Every time I see your Tiger it makes me want to go out and buy one. How is it for tall people?
You may want to spread the word about something I noticed at Deals gap. If the road has any moisture on it, stay away from the paint on the center of the road. It is very slippery. It is also slippery when the road is dry.
I also heard the cops and patrolling it extra hard this year.
Have fun there, I can't wait to see the videos. I wish I could make it.
@cashstore1 I am 6'1" or so. I like it really well! Fit me so much better than my Sprint.
I have been keeping up with happenings on the dragon since the land slide. It's all open now. The reason we are going during the weeks is because the LEO presence is far less.
Cool mods Bri. I've used the 35mm film canisters for my electric connections on my boat and now my bike. I cut the top in a very small X in the center so I can thread the power cord thru it and then put the canister back on. When I take the electronics off the bike, the power cord is waterproof.
Really nice bike!!! I´ve never heard of that "Twin headlight driver"!!!! Very nice! I have a ninja 250, would it work, where can I buy 1? Nice video... awesome ups!! Thanks!!!
The twin headlight driver is a great idea. I've been told a few times I have a headlight out and was just going to hook a resistor between the hot leads of the headlamps but it's good to know there is a pre-engineered product. Nice mods!
@Moosepiesandwich It does a really great job and you can have it modulate the high beam on/off as a look at me type thing. Once you turn on the high beam it goes to normal high beam. It also has a light sensor so that when it's nighttime it will go to normal operation. It has lots of different choices as well.
to bad you are trailering the bike this year, i enjoyed your ride home video last year but i can understand that's a long trip for your wife. have a safe trip
Michelin PR2 is a GREAT tire!

@theSMYRNAcowboy Good idea! I keep my eye out for something to replace the canister when they are no longer available.

Great bike britex! I bet the reservoir cover makes a world of difference :-P The camera/film thingie is awesome, I gotta do that :)

@dbauernf Thanks mate, and the reservoir cover helps me lean into curves with more confidence! hahaha

Nice bike Bri. I think I might steal that camera tub mod for my earplugs :)

@Swipe650 I have used it many years with not leaks...be sure to use a silicone to keep the wire tie in place and to seal out moisture.

Hah, at first I thought you'd gone out and bought an erector set or something.
