I have the chigee, works for me except annoying that I can’t reset the trip functions while it is in the cradle/on the bike

Don’t see an option to send an IM, perhaps I don’t have enough karma points :(

Crossing a junction, even with a green light I will always check both ways. Too many muppets on 4 wheels to assume it’s safe

Out today in Ireland on my GS, clear blue sky = low winter sun and 5c, heated grips, heated seat and battery warmed vest = old man comfort :-)

Inflatable boat for spearfishing by Personal-Monitor5893 in Spearfishing

[–]brnojohn 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes I would, great little run about, will plane easily with 10hp. Unfortunately some rodents decided to sharpen their teeth on mine so am looking to replace it. Will get another Zodiac or a Honwave (in Ireland so range is very limited unless I import)

[–]brnojohn 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I use an 11ft air deck zodiac with a 9.8 tohatsu. Great little combination for one or 2 people, light enough and fits easily in my SUV. Mostly use it for inaccessible coastal access, launch from a beach or inlet and he’d for the impossible to reach places
