I ordered from California Scientific (http://www.calsci.com) since they had one of the tallest at 24" (total height) and I'm 6'3". I'm very pleased after a year of riding with it.

I'm not sure it was smart but it worked...

I called it "Spyder Jenga".
EDIT: this was done with a standard motorcycle lift, some 4x4's to add height it to it and the blocks, of...
I found mine on eBay...

It's not good for checking the quality of the battery (unless it's low when the bike is off) but it is a pretty quick test for the quality of the charging circuit. If you're near 14v when charging,...
BnG: if you have a tender cord attached, you could test right at it by sticking the test probes in it, no need to open the bike up. On F3 the battery is in the frunk... easy reach. I know other...
If you have a voltmeter, check the voltage at the battery with the engine running. If it's around 14v dc, then your charging system is probably fine. If lower, like 12v, then you might have a...
Battery Tenders are, for me, just a winter thing. I guess if I were going months between rides during the summer months it'd make sense but as long as it runs every couple weeks, I don't see it the...
I wrote about $1400 for my new F3T's tag. About half of that was remaining un-paid sales tax. Next year it'll be about $600 I think.
Vehicles are taxed pretty heavily in CO.
My wife asked if I would be spraying the cars behind me with mud and rocks. I said that if I did, they were too close anyway. So there! :)
The MBL Innovation's rear rack. It's very thick metal and he recommends a max weight of 40 lbs. Personally, if the F3 is ever in the way, I believe I could hang it from the ceiling from this rack...
A little plastic surgery ;) and a butt tuck is done. I like the change, the greater exposed tire.

I guess it's time to get the manual out again. [emoji4]

I'm going to have to check that out when the Zumo goes belly-up.
I'm not familiar with the TomTom but one feature I use on the Zumo is the ability to plan routes. If I want to get from, for example, Meeker to Denver, CO (last weekend's trip), it takes me the 3.5...
I have the Garmin Zumo 660LM. I know it's more money but I like the trouble-free aspect, knowing it's built for the bike and rain and vibration proofed and glove friendly.
It also has the MP3...
So no word on F3T compatability?
The radio reception sucks so badly I'd be willing to try something new.
3M makes double-sided tape that's used to put car-trim back on a car after it falls off. Tough stuff.
I also once used JB Weld to put the bumper back on my car - 2-part epoxy - and I roughed up...
I found it and connected it up this weekend. I cut the ring terminals off the Garmin power leads and attached the Tyco connector I got from eBay. After a false start with the leads backwards...
I just put my first vanity plate on today...

Agreed. I had the smaller, returned for larger.

I have an Airhawk R while my wife just has the non-R Airhawk. They look very similar but the write-ups say the "R" is more male-part friendly.
They're better but not the last-word in comfort,...
Yeah - back to the complication factor. I guess I'm used to two wheels - I'm trying hard to keep this from becoming something massive and, therefore, to me, less fun. I'm used to just "Two wheels...
Thanks, Jerry. I'll send you pics of the final result.
Just FYI, an email to Acme mills, a manufacturer, went unanswered.
Thanks for the advice, all.
I want to keep this as simple as possible. Jerry has offered to send me some mesh so I'm going to make that my first attempt. If that doesn't work, then maybe some...
The fog light kit from Lamonster is really great and does indeed connect right to that wiring harness at that location. Even uses the stock connectors. Truly plug and play. Happy with mine.
I'm a "big guy" - ie: 6'3, 380 - and I had my Kawasaki's seat reworked by Russell Day Long Saddles in CA. You have to ship it off and get it back in the mail. I called yesterday, currently they're...
Since I'm a new rider, I have to ask, where is it?
On my 2016 F3, it's "Mode", "Brake", "Start". I don't have to wait for the Can-Am logo to go away for "Mode" to work.
I thought the earlier ones just made you wait longer before "mode" worked. ...
I only wave at people exactly like me. ;)
I stopped through Bitchin' Stitchin' yesterday to talk about remaking my seat to handle longer distances (my pelvic bones are killing me). By the time we're done, we may be in completely different...
