Re:Harley non wavers, Hey D.J.,If you've noticed:those harley riders will wave at each other.I think they are so worried about image that they are afraid another Harley rider might see them waving at us and be banned(or shunned) somehow !!! Just my take on it. Ken Ironhdfsh@...

Nothing wrong with this advice although I haven't heard anyone put the Travelcade in the same comfort category...but, your cheapest bet would be to send the Corbin to Raul Randariz at Corbin and have him build up the seating area ala the modified Corbin. Not a Russell but very very comfortable and far more stylish IMO. It also allows you to stand on your pegs with greater ease...price will be a little over $100.... Kurt

I've been following this a little bit because I too have a ripped diaphram (probably my own fault - over zealous wrenching maybe). This was my thinking exactly,what about a Mikuni? It only costs about two diaphrams. I looked through the archives on the WB Mikuni and opinions seemed mixed. I would like better lower end hit but at what costs besides higher fuel consumption?

Hello list, I am about to embark on a tour from New Jersey to Nova Scotia Via Quebec city. I am thinking of buying a set of the First Gear boost pants, I think they are constructed with Thinsulate, and I am worried that they will be too hot to ride in. But the armor and abrasion resistance seems great but if they suck after spending 180.00 I am screwed. I need advice, I would otherwise ride in jeans and bring my rainwear. -neil
