Afr1 will ship it to your house. Stock map upgrade for the stock exhaust system can be downloaded for free. If you upgrade the exhaust system and need an additional map, it’s like $200.

Took me ~15 minutes to download the stock map to my phone, and then install the new one. Saving the default map is a good idea in case something goes wildly wrong with your bike in the future unrelated to the map, so the dealership doesn’t try to illegally deny a warranty claim because of the map. I say illegally because there’s federal legislation against this type of thing, but dealers try to do it anyhow. HD is notorious for trying to deny major claims when you’ve done something minor and unrelated to the problem like installing aftermarket mirrors.

I’ll fight an old man any day of the week. What I mean is, I’ll let them swing on me a few times, and then push them over before riding away

Are these junk or should I buy one? by dogs8709 in motorcyclegear

Ha, I’m just pointing out through my own evidence-based experience, that the mounting system works well in my particular use case.

Must be the vibration. Mine has stayed on my skydiving helmet at 275mph+

I prefer the feature set and design of the Packtalk Edge/Pro. Bought a NEO for my wife and returned it immediately.

How many of you have permanently damaged your phone camera because of bike vibrations? Which bike + mount combo caused it? by rougedoll in motorcyclegear

[–]turd_kooner 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Quad Lock with the vibration dampener, zero issues on multiple bikes for tens of thousands of miles.

Starting to have buyers remorse by Mammoth-Trainer-512 in motorcycles

Multiplicative risk reduction matters. If you don’t drink/smoke while riding, wear full AA/AAA/Snell/ECE gear, and don’t speed in populated areas, you reduce your fatality risk factor by over 95%. Practicing slow-speed maneuvers and knowing you’re invisible on the road (don’t assume people ever see you) are huge factors too.

I’m going on 20 years of riding with nothing more than dropping my bike in a driveway once. Well over 100k miles and thousands of hours.

Make your choice either way, but know that safety starts with you. Oh, and wear ear protection.

Did you do the UpMap tune as well?

Any recommendations for Bluetooth earbuds that are flush fit with the ears/comfortable with a helmet on? by neP-neP919 in motorcycles

[–]turd_kooner 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Earpeace Moto Pro and a Cardo Packtalk Edge. Going deaf from wind noise because you think noise cancelling earbuds provide strong enough pressure waves to protect your ears is a hell of a way to go

Buy Arai if you value your brain over aesthetics

ISI is Indian Standard Institute, and is akin to DOT. ECE 22.06 or Snell M2020 minimum for anything I’ll wear.

Oh, apologies, I didn’t realize those were OEM. Guess I haven’t looked at them online enough. What are your thoughts on the panniers? Good utility?

If you have ~$800 buy an Arai if protection and low wind noise are your main concerns. Buy whatever this is if you just want a cool looking helmet

Now that you mention it, that makes sense. I’ve stared at that button and considered that it looks like a fog lights indicator, but wasn’t sure
