    Safety Message - Deer

    For you that are still riding through the winter, just a note for you to beware of deer (at all times of the year). There have many deer and foxes run across the road near me recently. If you hit one while riding, that will mess you up. Don't push it with your speed, especially during dark...

    Motorcycle Safety

    http://silodrome.com/ I follow this website "Silodrome" and I just watched a great video on ....motorcycle safety that was narrated by Peter Fonda and Evil Knievel. It's short and very progressive for it's time. Interesting they suggest we think of cagers as either drunk, asleep or blind.

    Still having throttle lag, safety concern

    So I did everything under the sun, and now the bike can dependably get me from A to B :eusa_dance: Unfortunately, this throttle lag is still a pretty big safety concern. Keep in mind this is a Vgas set up IE: I rode to school today since I saw high of 40 and no rain, on the way home, a...

    Brighter 1157s in the taillight. (wired to BLINK with the Signal Dynamics BACK OFF brake light modulator) Custom Dynamics LED license plate bracket. (dual intensity, operates normally - bypasses the SD Backoff brake modulator) Then I added a yellow LED reflector to the luggage. I tap into the...

    Rear brake safety lighting etc

    I'm becoming more aware of this issue as I often sit at a stoplight in neutral, hands and feet off brakes = no brake lights = increase risk of getting run over. So.... I've been looking at the signal dynamics back off brake modules, the ones that have programmed flash/repeat patterns...

    Clutch safety switch??

    Hello, all you Maxers. Got a question for whoever may have the answer. Does our bike have some kind of clutch safety switch? When I first got my bike, you could hold in the clutch and you could start the bike. Now, the only way it will start is if it's in neutral. Any advise would be great. Be...

    Electrical Safety At Home

    Just figured I'd throw this out here. Some people think of this kind of stuff, most don't. A friend of mine was working on his great aunt's electrical panel. He had to turn a breaker off to install a new receptacle on an existing circuit. He told me it was weird because the breaker didn't...

    High beams/brights

    Hey all, Remember that for safety reasons you should be running with your high beams on during the day time. It makes you a ton more visible. I've ridden with quite a few bikers in the last few weeks and I see a lot of them not doing this. Another great tip for bikers is to use hand...
