I'm a maybe, still haven't replaced the blown out headlight from the ride on saturday. It did prompt me to order some more parts for the bike like a bellypan.

You should be good. The low beam still had a good amount of protection. It's just the high beam that's overly exposed. :) I still can't believe that happened. Have you check, has any one else with that bike had it happen? Wonder if you had a defective lense.

If you rode with us every now and then, you would NOT miss out on the fun we have. :D You would rather go home to your wife and daughter :HeadScratch: than ride? :)

Keep the thread on topic, you can only talk about waffles and omelettes if your coming on the ride otherwise it's off topic.

I've done exactly two club rides... :( One back in like April and the one we went on to retrieve Mile's sack. Which was unsuccessful. Miles is still sackless. :SideSplittingLaughter: Already had it typed...by the time you mentioned off topic. :)

I don't know if anyone else has had that issue, it was a surprise for sure. I got a good discount but still running about $1200.00 just for the replacement...it's one assembly - damn italian bikes.
