• There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.

Motofix allows you to activate your garage door opener with your turn signals or headlights. It runs $75 and looks very simple to install.

Very nice and pretty cool. For a lot less cost this mod has worked for me through all weather and 3 long road trips with no problems whatsoever.

Stuck under handlebars. I never take it off in any weather and it always works and no one knows it is there.

Yes, but I'm offering a way to stimulate the economy. Your's doesn't help. :P

Also, some of us don't have that archaic stock steering column. :P

Very neat, Deb! :thumbup: I have been carrying my Chamberlain F1 opener in my Spyder jacket (hidden compartment ;)). After poking my chest several times, the door opens! :clap:

I may have to look into a simlar set-up as you're using.

$75 is a bit much for the original listed solution, I think. But, it is cool. :)
 
Garage door opener

Bought a small door opener at home Depot and programmed it to open the door at my home. Works perfectly. I mounted mine on the shroud over the gauges. Unobtrusive and functional. Cosy about $15.00.

Our way stimulated the Heavy Duty Velcro economy and made a $10 sale at the local JoAnn's fabric shop. :D :thumbup:

:clap:Thanks Jack! I think I'll be paying Home Depot a visit tomorrow. I thought there might be something in a more generic form that could be programmed from mine.

The phone # 18776686411 is disconnected and website/email never returned questions. Are they still in business?
 
I have an arm ..... Not to hi-tech but so far my batteries still charged:joke:
I have an Armstrong opener, too......and my wife has me! :D Both seem pretty reliable, and the company is still in business.

And what steering column is available that looks better than the stock one?

The only two options I've seen (Kewlmetal & Helibars) look horrible.

Got picks of something better?
 
I just stick the garage door opener in my pocket when I ride...when I get to the driveway, I pull it out and click it...this is probably the cheapest way to go, but it works quite well...
