old thread but, if someone's looking, this place has 'em; https://japan.webike.net/products/9374419.html?utm_source=webikestyle&utm_medium=moto_rec_312_trend&utm_campaign=20250514

seen that type of trailer many years ago; https://baxleycompanies.com/pages/trailers

not yet. i'm happy to have the option of a tighter fitting platform for when i'm riding solo. thanks for the good deal!

then there's the "we might have to lanesplit" configuration... does anybody here still ride a blackbird?! 😜 another thank you to fiona, that's his old tankbag!

both my friend and i have had these in our blackbirds for several years without issue. at least twice, i've run mine down to not even enough for dash lights and after charging (lithium specific charger or using a jump battery and charging via the bike's alternator), it's been fine. i've read once they drop below a certain voltage, they disconnect to avoid completely draining. https://bansheebatteries.com/collections/lithium-motorcycle-batteries

are the mirror brackets rare-ish? have levers? aftermarket goodies? since i'm planning on riding mine into the ground, i'm thinking of spares that aren't too bulky to ship.

i'd be interested in a can or 2. i have an '83 accord that's hopefully on the verge of getting back on the road.

i've had one of my 2 torsion springs break twice since 2001. it's barely a 2 car garage with a single door. without springs or counterweights, they're heavier than you'd think. nice thing about having 2 springs is that you can add enough tension to the remaining spring to lift the door until you're able to replace both of them. 1st time i made the mistake of ordering a beefier spring, thinking that would make an easier job for the opener... wound up not having enough oomph to close the damn door... get the same size springs! not a bad d.i.y., just be very methodical as you're winding the new springs. i should remember to wrap an old pant leg or something around the springs next time. when they go, they fling grease all around... $475 for same day service? 'bout what you'd expect.

i'm wondering if my perception that more people "flying off the handle" at the slightest provocation is true; Lead exposure can create learning disabilities and challenges that affect children's executive functioning, impulse control and levels of aggression. These conditions are often irreversible and, studies find, may impact the likelihood of learning and behavioral difficulties, violence, and crime in adulthood. 7 things to know about lead exposure | UNICEF generations of kids now becoming adults, who were never told no? more cameras in more places capturing what's always been happening? doesn't help that my job is dealing with the transit riding public... "what do you mean i can't get my free pass now?! i'm disabled!"... at times, i question if there are any able bodied, sane people left in this town...

i put gtr h7's in my blackbird and they're awesome. fit was a bit fidly, with the retainer wire but, if some asshole refuses to dim their brights, i can see the color of their shirt! auxito h7's in 2 mercedes (w210 & now w211) had a bit of scatter in the w211, that oncoming drivers let me know about, i've since lowered the aim a bit and i'm no longer the "asshole"...

here are some pics from the ebay listing.

yup, mine are the c.f. version. nameplate says rs-3. think it will run decently without a power commander (i have a pc3 yet to be installed)?

not sure, here's a pic. google searching makes me think rs3. they're on the mild side of aftermarket exhaust noise. as that erion system was only $300 on flea bay, i jumped on it.

i remember hearing their cans are loud. will it be too much compared to my current yoshi slip-ons? bike's an '01 with the o2 and pair delete. i have a pc3 that's yet to be installed.

messaged.
