    Mileage and Range Expectations

    I have a new hope! Just saw this this morning. Unfortunately the security manager is on vacation for 1 week, so I won't have an update until then.

    Mileage and Range Expectations

    I can make a wheelie bar with wheels. Then put a spare battery on it.

    Mileage and Range Expectations

    You are right, I can buy some immobile junker for the price of towing it away. Tow it to the employee parking lot. Place a cheap and loud gas generator in it and park the bike next to it when I am at work.

    Mileage and Range Expectations

    My commute is on rural two-lane highways. The speed limit is 55mph. The roads are pretty flat and straight, but the visibility is usually no farther than 1/8 of a mile. Riding below 45 mph is not an option. And if I do not maintain 50-55 mph, I will soon create a traffic backup behind me. Map 1...

    Mileage and Range Expectations

    My first commute to work and back on my SMR was a HUGE FAILURE. Picture below is the bike completely out of juice 6 miles before getting back home. Out of the 40 miles that I needed to cover (20 miles each way) the bike only did 34 miles. I cannot think of any possible changes that would...

    Which US companies sell basic liability insurance for the Alta?

    Just called Geico. I hesitated because a few years ago they stopped offering auto coverage in Michigan. But I called, and they found my VIN immediately, and insured it!!! Now I am paying for my Alta Redshift MXR (!!!) and my Honda ST-1300 less than what I was paying for just the Honda alone...

    Which US companies sell basic liability insurance for the Alta?

    Please recommend to me some dirt bike insurance companies that would insure the Alta. I just wasted an hour on the phone with two companies - Merkel and Progressive. First, they could not find my bike... then they could not find my VIN... I just need a cheap basic liability coverage to be...

    Logs and rocks are not for me. I like dirt, some sand, and maybe mud.

    My MXR to EXR conversion / lighting install

    I am using the stock headlight and the stock brackets. I still can't figure out how the stock horn doesn't interfere with them.

    My MXR to EXR conversion / lighting install

    Yes, I saw that, thank you Jay. I gave you a thumbs-up. I have ordered that rare M7x1 - 16mm bolt from McMaster for $7 per 25 pieces plus $7 shipping. LOL. Grrrrr... But I am still confused. The horn does not seem to fit into that place!!! There is an interference between the horn and the...

    My MXR to EXR conversion / lighting install

    These two parts are some of the most important details. Without them, I would have hesitated myself into inaction for days, LOL, thinking about how to best route these unsightly wires! Thank you, Steve!

    My MXR to EXR conversion / lighting install

    I am going through this right now. Where is the horn usually mounted? I found a perfect location for it, but the threaded hole appears to be something odd like M7 ? o_O
