Well I'm not tough or a biker chick ...never was but that didn't stop me from getting on the back of one when I was dating someone who had one.
Opt7 sells add on segments once you have the main electronics box ... I have 6 four inch strips and extension wires coming and a strip will go under each saddlebag near the sidecases, and the other 4 are for added light to the engine ... i'm doing that because of the 25 color changes the LEDS can do, some by their very nature such as red need more leds to cast the same amount of reflection .
For all keeping track, I'm playing mood lifting 'up' music through the ceiling speakers and loving it .... I am a very strange music lover and even have video game backround music as selections ... nothing more uplifting than all of the fight music from 'Giares' (and I know for sure I never ever spell that game correctly ) Michael Parks died last month so I had to listen to the 'then came bronson' songs he recorded both for and well after the show ended ...
My last motorcycle, the Kawasaki 650 was loud (4 into 1 pipe), but not nearly as loud as a Harley. If I was to ever get another bike, it would be a Honda 1000 Touring. But, buying another just isn't going to happen. Only thing about my last bike, I had to wear rain gear to ride back and forth to work on some days. It was my only transportation. I would attach, by bungee cords, an empty copy paper box to the end of the seat and go grocery shopping. What was really nice, when I had it in So California, I could split traffic on any street or freeway. It was legal there and I done it very good.
So many guys did not do as well with that trick and only the really careful ever make the decision WHEN to split the lane ..
"Fight" music is uplifting? My uplifting music is Heart, Boston, Styx, ZZ Top, Deep Purple and so on. Love the drum solo in "I'm A Man" by Chicago.
Not Fistfight, This is a side scroller with a plane shooting at various aliens ... "Dogfight" might have said it better ...
There are lots of touring bike clubs around Louisiana. My older Cousin and his wife are into this big time and a few others I know too. The Bike Club my Cousin and his wife belong also participate in charity events, and volunteer things besides road trips, etc. Do they have these kinds of clubs where you are living @Michael Santi?
The wider bikes, with bags on the sides, were harder to maneuver. Mine didn't have anything on the sides.
That's why I liked having a motorcycle in Southern California. Motorcycles are popular here in Maine, despite the fact that we have only a few months a year that they can be used. I'd like to get one but, because of this, it's not so high on my list of priorities. A snowmobile would be more practical.
Cody, you asked about how many more leds was going on the bike ... I'm finished and here are some pics ... these lights change color so leds for each color arent necessary ... Cody, the rest of the leds arrived and are installed, they change colors, here's a few pics ...
Since I've only ridden on the backs of bikes and mostly during the day, I don't understand these lights...can you explain them to me @Michael Santi? They're pretty though!
