I'll buy all available CB1100s and turn them into ugly, un-rideable choppa/bobba/scrambla/cafes, so all our remaining bikes will be held in highest esteem, and lesser bikes will roll off their sidestands as we roll by!!

As soon as the bathroom and kitchen are remodeled.

Is 401k your bank balance or a government form number?


RE: 2017 speedo look... - Lord Popgun - 03-18-2020

A 401k is a qualified retirement plan that allows eligible employees of a company to save and invest for their own retirement on a tax deferred basis. Only an employer is allowed to sponsor a 401k for their employees. ... These contributions are deducted from your salary on a pre-tax basis.

I copied that from the internet.


RE: 2017 speedo look... - Cormanus - 03-18-2020

Which leads to the next question: does it affect the development of the revised speedo or the bathroom and kitchen?

Meanwhile, check out the minimalist speedo design for Europe ...

Ironically, this was the very first suggestion that the skunkworks team had sent back my way. But in all honesty it had taken them quite a long time to respond. I feared that perhaps caught up in in my own overzealous euphoria I had overloaded the lads right from the get go. By the time I received their suggestion, unbeknownst to them, I had already hired an external consultant of the highest magnitude. One VLJ Instrument Engineering Inc., Ltd., LLC.

Ironically, contained on the very first page of findings within the report produced by VLJ Engineering Inc, Ltd., LLC it was recommended NOT to design both the speedometer and tachometer in similar fashion! I must admit, knowing how quickly the testing crew racked up expenditures via speeding tickets, the $10K that I spent on the report was more than worth it.

My suggestion for project #2: reflectorized RLETS. just makes sense, and I imagine if you build them, they'll be adopted as a EURO 6 requirement pretty quickly.

By reflectorizing...did you mean applying 12V to RLETS?? ..I did it and it burnet the 20A fuse, so I increased to 100A and it burnt the entire wiring harness with both levers...
What should be my next step, Pdedse, pleaseSmile

What should be my next step, Pdedse, pleaseSmile no, PB. I imagined something low-tech, like mixing sparkly stuff into the rubber compound or a small stripe of reflector material. but the exact design is for the skunkworks geniuses to figure out. With the new levels of safety achieved, riding without RLETS would be like riding without a helmet, and anti-RLET holdouts would have an even more difficult time justifying their resistance.

You're screwed...sell it as parts bike!


RE: 2017 speedo look... - VLJ_imp - 03-19-2020

Even though the bountiful check from Guth and The Deciders has already cleared, and I ain't giving the money back, VLJ Instrument Engineering's ongoing research vis a vis the quest for the perfect instrument cluster has continued apace. As it happens, an end-stage conclusion has finally been reached.

This...



...is the correct answer. Except the faces should be green.

One caveat...

Supposing our intrepid moto-hero tends to gallivant across international borders on the regular, the inclusion of the additional KPH digits is deemed a necessity-driven, functionally acceptable alteration, forsooth.

Sorry, borders are closed/closing anyway.
