Dillon, Your description of the handle slowly pulling into the grip is exactly what is happening. I'll be trying to find the part numbers for a rebuild kit this weekend and order it on Monday. I really appreciate your comments and the call. Nice to hear all is well.

Yeah it was good catching up, though it does kinda suck to hear about the little issues that keep popping up on your bike. Oh well, thats just part of vintage bike (or any equipment really) ownership...

Just a short ride to a good breakfast, backroading to Dufort road and to Hayden and then home, nothing like a big fairing and heated gloves to keep you warm. Do they make heated socks?

I spoke with Tim from Cabella's recently. He says they are going to be carrying a Gerbings made but Cabella packaged product line here soon. They already sell them over the internet and haven't received any shipments at Post Falls yet. I THINK they are battery operated. They're getting rave reviews..

Just a head's up.

FS- HJC SyMax II Modular Helmet Flat Black, Sz L

HJC Sy-Max II Flat Black Modular Helmet


Great condition. One summer of use. I still have the shield decals which I reapplied for the pictures. I also have the original box it came in with owners manual and hang tags. BONUS item - I will also throw in a replacement clear shield!! Anal/retentive owner who takes care of his stuff here!

* DOT certified
* Advanced fiberglass shell with polycarbonate chin bar provides lightweight, superior fit and comfort using advanced CAD technology
* One-touch patent-pending integrated sun shield is smoke-tinted and deploys quickly/easily
* Single-button chin bar and face shield release can be opened with one hand, even with gloves on
* Advanced channeling ventilation system with full front-to-back airflow that flushes heat and humidity up and out
* SilverCool moisture-wicking interior is odor-free, removable and washable
* Optically-superior face shield provides 95% UV protection
* Shield replacement system is quick and secure with tool-less removal and installation
* Padded double D-ring anti-flutter retention strap
* Built-in speaker pockets
* Helmet is lightweight - 3 lb., 14 oz

Paid MSRP of $265.99. How about $165.00 picked up (Spokane area) or $175.00 shipped?

Little early but Happy thanksgiving to all you FF's in the Spokane/CdA area. Hope everyone has a safe and great holiday.

I'm thankful for my friends, family, my health, and hippo hands.

Hey ladybug, when is the regifting party? I've got some road kill that may need a home.

Happy Thanksgiving to you too. Did you stay in the neighborhood or did you head over to see you parents?

The regifting party will be in Jan. I haven't decided which weekend yet but we need to do it before AirheadBruce heads off into the wild blue yonder and Live2Ride heads to Baja, although last year he didn't show up.

You guys that are waiting on parts this is the time of year to do it.

Happy Thanksgiving to all of you. I have a lot to be thankful for and all of you are on the list of things I'm thankful for.

I think this is the bike I saw at Dave Russell's recently. One of the best colors.
