Shoei photochromatic shield

Use the same screws that you unscrewed to remove the signals. Once everything is apart, it makes a lot more sense. You don't need to source out any extra hardware.

sweaty arms and leather jackets

Ok, fess up. Now that summer is in full swing, does no one have any difficulty pulling off their leather jackets when their arms are sweaty? What the heck is in the liners that turns into superglue...

I've had mine for about 1500 miles. A little wrinkly and the carbon fiber pattern is showing some wear. After the initial few hundred mile break in, my ass doesn't hurt like it did with the stock...

Hernan, pretty sure....too peppy on entry, too tight, tipped in too much, no hanging off, accelerating as soon as leaned over. There should be extra credit for doing it _all_ wrong.

Like the Jiggles method. 10 for practicality, 0 for style, though.

Cam, I'm referring to a couple of the roads above Steven's Creek Reservoir. Redwood Gulch and Montebello. They seem like good practice roads as long as the road bikers don't kill me. Getting used to...

I've used Battery Tenders for the last 10 years (the Tender Plus, though). They've been very solid performers for me. Also use a CTEK and have the bike on a YUASA.

Erratic idle

So, I've noticed over the last couple of weeks that my 2012 ninjette has a bit of an inconsistent idle speed once warmed up. Does need a bit of choke to start up. Once warm, I've see idle speeds...
