Re: Power loss at 3500rpm

Air filter is new.  What is a way to test the fuel filter? Or just get a new one?

Re: Rear wheel hub

My inner seal is beginning to leak just a little also.  Have you replaced your seals yet? did you run into any problems while doing it?

Re: gs911 problems

I've had ok luck with the usb cable but even then It seems to have communication issues and for the price I'd really like to see this thing work as intended, plus I'd like to be able to use the mobile app on my phone while on the road.

Re: Keeping visors clean inside and out

I use eyeglass cleaner wipes.  they are made for plastic lenses and individually packaged, so I just keep them in my top box.  I've also had good luck with nicwax visor proof for water repellent since rain-x is not for plastic (unless they have a new product out)

Re: Falling into slow corners

the bike will follow your eyes.  look down, do down.  the other thing that i've noticed on the rt versus a lot of the other bikes I've had is shifting your weight on the pegs smooths out the curves tremendously.

Re: heated gear to powerlet

most of our winters are pretty dry, so we get several months where it is just bitter cold.  cold and dry, i'm riding. warm and wet, i'm riding. cold and wet, well I've got to draw the line somewhere. no ice riding for this cat.  Happy New Year to you as well.

Re: heated gear to powerlet

Thank you, from the looks of it I need to go ahead and wire myself directly up to the battery.  I've got jacket liner, pant liner and gloves so that puts me up to a 15 amp draw.
