Anyone up for a tour of Tassie!

[Kazza]

Well, just came back from a beautiful ride through the Swan Valley to test the Sena.

All is good :thumbup:

Ear didn't hurt. I actually enjoyed listening to Them Crooked Vultures :rockon: and Mike didn't annoy me too much - BUT he does shout at other cars - have to stop that from happening :rof:

Humpy has a problem (the 1st step is admitting it ) , I have no idea where to mount a 12v plug on the XJR & I dont really wanna hard wire the GPS in , any idea's ??

Get used to the shouting....i have a habit of telling cagers exactly what i think of their inability to stay on their side of the road, etc, etc...

Ok, any chance that You, Mr Humpy, could post up some of those Google Maps route's you so thoughtfully researched for us....

I am getting excited now, i want to "investigate" the pleasure's that lie ahead...

Mike is going to take some photos soon and show you his set up. He has hard wired the GPS in. Wasn't too hard.

Here is a Google Maps view of our ride from my joint to PI....848km's the shortest way, but it does take us through Horsham, etc, where the floods are, am guessing some of the Western Highway is going to be "out" still when we are set to go to victoria, we may have to take suggested option number 2, on the map side panel...

[Wolfman]

Another question! Mike?, where do you intend to get Tyres in Tassie...been looking, picking's look slim!

Driving to Adelaide with the bikes on the trailer - then ride from there

That's a long long drive!

Will make sure we have a hot shower, a long drink, a decent feed, and a comfy bed sorted for you guys upon your arrival!

:thumbup:

Just e-mailed Sport Rider motorcycle's in Launceston re Tyre availability too!

Photo 1: GPS lead cable tied to throttle cables
Photo 2, 3 & 4: Running lead along frame to battery

..... More to come

 

[Prebstar]

But wait there's more

1: You'll need to split the pos/neg wires a bit more so they can reach the terminals
2: I bundled the wires together, and put the 12V where the orig tool kit was, for the Sena and the iPhone
3: Wrapped the wire around the battery leads a couple of times, tied them up and bolted them down
4: I used a wire tie to hold it against the throttle cables so you can easily connect/disconnect them, due to my man hands....

 

[Prebstar]

And finally

1: Perfect spot for the cable to slide down
2: Tank won't fall off - bit dodgy - but it's the way I work
3: Photo with tank back on showing approximate proximity... of where it comes out


Sorry it took so long mate. Karen tried to post these for 3 hours - I took over and success. She's supposed to be the forum queen or is that the LART?
