The temp gauge will go up as high as around 216 before it starts cooling off when sitting in traffic on hot days, but I've never heard of anyone complaining of unbearable heat on their legs from the engine. That's a new one.

Love my cortech, but with the choices you provided, I'd go with the Nelson

I had mine fall over in the driveway while I was locking the front door. It was facing SLIGHTLY downhill and it was running. I guess it just walked off the kickstand.

HJC RPHA10. Best bang for the buck, imo

Fun stuff. And it's relevant to the forum because it's a ride!

My buddy is riding up here to Jax on the 1st for a Nekromantix show on the 2nd. He'll be on a new CB1100. Anyone down to ride out? I have a place to meet up and drink coffee before the show. PM me. Rain or shine, I'm riding! (unless it's raining and below 45*F). The show is $15 at Jackrabbits.

32. Bought the house, turned 30, bought the bike, been 18k miles and 2.5 years since. Loving every minute of it.

Congrats, man!!! What kind of a deal did they cut you since the 09 is out? Be safe out there!

What ever the stealership puts in it. The techs there seem to know what the hell they're doing. I defer to them (specifically my tech) for bike wisdom.

When I ordered it, I got it in 4 days. The turn-around was commendable. I don't use the back seat anymore, (the girly doesn't care about the moto) but the front seat is much grippier and more comfortable. And, the looks are fantastic.

The risks we take.... That guy was good. Did it sound like the engine started misfiring after riding through that? Or was that just because it was a twin. Either way: scary. I am impressed that he didn't end up UNDER that puddle.

I highly recommend this seat. It's great.

Great writeup. It is completely within the realm of possibility that something you said in there will save a life or 2. Age is just a number, but the experience you have attained with that age can not be quantified or appraised.

It's a web generated map... I have no idea what the colors mean. Here is the link... Map
