I have some. I use them on the highway, but harder to use around town since mine is a 5MT.

At least its gone into default mode and you're free to drive, its prob one of the electric motors on the rear brake calipers.

Yeah, but it's super annoying having the chime any time I open the door .

I need to replace all my brakes soon, so just have to add troubleshooting this to the list.

Manually turned on my sprinklers tonight at 11pm and one was broken in the front yard. Think maybe a kid ran through my yard or rode a bike or something and broke it earlier in the day. No big deal, it happens, and kids will be kids. Water was shooting up about 15ft in the air, lol. Needed to water the lawn tonight so made the repair. Always find it a little more difficult to work on sprinklers at night, even with a portable light. Feel lucky to have these little first world problems.

I have been struggling so hard, no sleep (work already takes that away)... but I simply can't settle on a replacement for my Anniversario (R.I.P)

Which one would YOU choose...?

I'm sure your already aware that there aren't many motorcycle shops in the north east that allow test rides, unfortunately.

Top one. But I'm no motorcycle enthusiast so take anything I say with a large grain of salt. The mirrors on the BMW just look like they belong on a scooter...to me anyways. I like the middle ducati as well, but like the top the best.

The top choice is definitely the most exciting of the bunch... but IMHO, not worth the asking price for a "plain old" V4s.

I also say this with a grain of salt... after running an HP4 then an Anniversario over the past 4 years, which happens to be two of the most limited production bikes on the planet, outside of the H2.

Kinda got used to the "exclusivity" that came with rolling up on either of those.

... First world problems, indeed.

But that's based on the fact the guy who painted my softtail ALWAYS had pieces in the shop he was returning to the correct shade of red. Most fairings had about 30 seconds on them

You should post a pic of your bike again. I do remember seeing it and I remember liking it, but I can't quite picture it anymore. Seem to recall a flag painted on there?

Very nice! I must be wrong though, in my mind I had thought the gas tank was painted with a flag? Or is it the angle?

Still a very nice bike - I recall seeing in when you helped Run Silent out looking at the Ferrari.

I should've gotten rid of my run flats years before I did. Made the switch to go flats and never looked back
