Re: Moderate Ride, December 1st
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.

Re: Moderate Ride, December 1st
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. You would rather go home to your wife and daughter than ride?nitzerebbhead wrote:Hell, what are you guys doing on these rides? Busted lights, busted helmets, busted mirrors, busted Stardogs...oh, the mayhem...

Re: Moderate Ride, December 1st
Keep the thread on topic, you can only talk about waffles and omelettes if your coming on the ride otherwise it's off topic.

Re: Moderate Ride, December 1st
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. Already had it typed...by the time you mentioned off topic.

Re: Moderate Ride, December 1st
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.DarcShadow wrote:You should be good.
