Make sure to get one that is a name brand and/or gets consistently good reviews. Tires is not a place where you want to cut corners on quality.

Yes. Computer data is stored magnetically and does not require electricity to be maintained. You're good for 5 years minimum without power if your hard drive is healthy, dry, and cool. Actually, harddrives of nowadays usually have a 1 year guarantee, 2 year retention of data, due to the magnetic bits being so small (they're over 1000x smaller compared to the first harddrives). And SSD's actually do retain data electrically, not magnetically, but they generally don't need power to sustain the data. Chances are that SSD's will retain data, long after it becomes obsolete. Well if you want to be technical, all data storage happens electrically. You can't store data without signals and instructions, The difference between a RAM-type of data storage (which SSD is) and a magnetic type is not relevant to this conversation as both are going to keep their data without electricity, which is what the OP was concerned about. The chances that she's using SSD are slim to none due to the cost and low likelihood that her system came with an SSD standard. Don't be confused, Terrilee; you're good. Remove the power, go on an 8 or 10 year voyage, and if drive was kept dry, clean, and relatively cool and away from powerful magnetic forces, you're good. |

I'm somewhat amazed at the performance gains that just getting up to 48 degrees brought (haven't received this carb yet). Smooth and fast, wicked acceleration bout to throw me off the back of the bike. Summer will be good, and I suspect even better with the carb.

Word! I got the orange on the thought of being more easily seen, but since that hasn't worked, I would have picked the black.

really ?
you want more GOVT in our lives? Nope, I want more govt saving our lives by requiring things at the factories that would protect lives instead of leaving it up to individual fog treatments and individuals who would just as soon not use any fog treatments and take their chances. Fog is blinding. But, I'm not pushing that anymore. My petition got like 12 signatures. Meh. |

My replacement carb has an main, 32 pilot; I don't know what my factory sized jets are, but I know that at least the main jet is larger and I think both are larger. If I didn't install a bbk, will these provide any benefit? I have increased airflow at intake and exhaust so in the normal formula, jet size would seem to be the last limiting factor outside of more expensive upgrades. |

I put my FogCity insert in today; it's not as much of a pain as people make it out to be. You bend it, align it, and put it in lightly; if it's not aligned right, you pull it back out and re-align (it hardly even sticks w/o applying pressure so you aren't losing adhesive by re-positioning). My "smoked" one is actually darker than my back-up smoked shield that came with my helmet (I put the insert in my clear shield). But it sure is nice to have something that doesn't require me to put expensive drops in every few riding hours to keep the fog out. No cracked vents that freeze your face off, no wiping, no constant re-application of wipes or other chemicals.
I still believe that in the U.S., all glass that needs to be seen through for public safety should be treated for fog at the factory level by mandate.

They are prob. 8g rollers. Go with 6g sliders, pro, if you don't want to tune and tinker.
