    Bad News for Gun Lovers

    Take all the guns away, people will use knives, cars, baseball bats, etc. Hell, a gallon of gasoline would do just fine. People have always killed each other and will continue to, hand to hand if need be. Get your weapons, ammo, and magazines while you can because the change is on its way.

    Fly Screen

    Hmmm, would be better to see it installed or at least mocked up.

    Helmets.....

    Scorpion EXO1100, Came from an arai and the Scorp is pretty darn nice. I like the inner sunshield and inflatable cheekpads. Helmet is light and comfortable, venting is decent but not as good as my Arai.

    Easier or harder?

    Handles great but requires more effort than jap inlines. More precise throttle control, brake modulation to acquire same results but once you figure it out, there is no stopping it. Unless you are a GP rider, you will not outride the bike, of course tires, pavement, etc considered.

    Lights

    yes, use engine enamel clear. You can try polishing the reflector rather than painting. It appears to be aluminum, can you confirm?

    idle problem

    Is your neutral light working? Check it in a dark garage and see if it flickers. I had a similar problem which turned out to be a bad neutral switch. Search youtube for jirffe108, you'll see a video of my symptoms.

    I GOT MY STOLEN BIKE BACK!!!

    Glad you had your bike recovered. Pressure them to file charges for UUMV, Poss of stolen property, no proof of financial responsibility. Contact SAPD and advise a detective that you have recovered your bike and ask them if they will pursue charges if Somerset will not. Contact JP in regards to...

    Oil leak

    How did you replace the inner gasket without removing the cover? If you replaced the perimeter gasket with the updated part and left the "old", inner gasket in place, you will soon have oil flowing down the inside of your jug. I prefer not to grind or cut my tools unless it is absolutely...

    Welder Recommendations...

    Lincoln 135plus, have run many 10lb rolls of innershield (fluxcore) and gas wire through it without a hitch. Have Ramsond Plasma which is turning out to be a pretty good unit for the price. Miller, Hobart, and Lincoln would be the only welders I would purchase.

    Oil leak

    There is no way to remove rear rocker cover on a factory XB without rotating the engine. HD Parts, new gasket is thicker and stiffer, black in color vs the old orange part.

    Dallas, SA or Houston

    Out of those three, San Antonio for sure. Houston is a pisshole, as Dallas is becoming. Find a nice place along the outskirts of SA. Year round riding weather, plenty of areas to enjoy. Close to the coast, and great food.
