So what about the other method of 2 tethers?

Joke(Is that what she said?)

Do you need another tether to try it?

TallRob · 09-29-2010, 04:51 PM

It would not be ADVRider without the jokes. I will send you another tether and we can talk about beer when I am at the IMS show in Long Beach

Alan,

I was going to suggest that you get the bike and go to only one show. But you beat me to it.

You have a better mousetrap and the sales will come to you anyway.

I have been riding in my yellow YS vest and it is pretty obvious that I am more visible on the freeways (a good thing) and safer in the event of a get off too. Thank you for the product.

I did receive a 60cc CO2 cartridge as you suspected so I will have to get that back to you and swap for a 50cc. I will get in touch with you about that shortly.

Trying to sell my DRZ400SM so I can get the other bike AND go to both shows

If you have a chance to get some pics of you wearing the vest on your bike and can send them to me I would appreciate it.

See what happens when i pick and pack product before I have my cup of tea in the morning!!!! I can send out a 60cc pretty quick and include a return label for the 50cc. Sorry for the hassle, got to stop picking product so early in the morning

Make sure you screw the connectors on as tight as you can so the kevlar fibers get gripped and dont start to slide

TallRob · 10-04-2010, 12:52 PM

i broke my hand a few days ago. so it will be 4 to 5 weeks before pics are ready.

So you are mastering the art of "One Hand Typing"

How did you manage to break your hand?

I think I will need another tether too.
I am about 6'3" and on tiger 1050 hooked up under the seat I can not
get mu knees straight. It looks plenty long but I guess on some bikes
it is not going to work. I did try to make just short loop but I am still not ok.
