    Default My setup

    Hello everyone! This is my first post on this site after doing some lurking.
    I thought I would post up my setup I've used the past 30k miles.

    Bike: C14
    Radar Detector: Bell STI
    Audio Override: Kennedy's RadarOverRide Kennedy's Motorcycle Items
    GPS-> Garmin Zumo 550 with optional XM antenna.
    Earphone-> Etymotic Research ER6i Isolator In-Ear Earphones

    Very nice!!! No bike here, yet, but will be coming back to your setup once I get one.

    I assume you're from NC - have you ever done the Tail of the Dragon?

    I have done the dragon a few times. Great road but I try to hit it during the
    week so the THP and other riders presence is reduced.

    Same here, but with cars. A few pals meet me up there twice a year; we ride Tues/Wed/Thurs AM around daybreak and get 3, sometimes 4 runs in before LEOs show up. Almost no traffic that early.

    Great times. Your setup has me thinking about a bike again... The wife will be thrilled.

    Very nice install....


    2 suggestions... Make sure your STi is level, it seems as if it is pointing toward the sky a fair amount... and buy a little shield/cover instead of the plastic bag for the Sti.


    If the RD is going to be on the outside of the windscreen:
    Protecting a RD that is over $400 with a bag that isn't even $.04 just isn't kosher in my book.

    Don't think I am coming down hard on your install: I just want your hard work to be worth it and maximized in the end.

    Thanks Air. It does point up a little. I've been meaning to adjust the levers.
    I looked at the covers but I needed something that came down a bit more.
    I met a guy that was running the zip bags on his radar. Has done it for
    thousands of miles. It does seem to keep the STI from getting wet from
    the bottom.

    Many times. We usually do 5-6 hour loops from Tapoco after traffic picks up. Can't wait to get back up.
