Every thing except the laser blinder, but there are ways around it as well. I said before, if I were still commuting I would get the laser blinder.

The detectors are legal for sure, they, the LEO's, have the right to use radar and we have the right to know when they are using it.

One of the best things ever.
Have you monted your GPS where you can see it, if so lets see some pics.

[sm=smiley32.gif][sm=smiley32.gif][sm=smiley32.gif][sm=smiley32.gif][sm=smiley32.gif] That wins the award for the most creative use of a steering dampener... HAH! Good work bro! [sm=smiley32.gif][sm=smiley32.gif][sm=smiley32.gif][sm=smiley32.gif][sm=smiley32.gif]

I just stuffed mine in the clear pocket in my tankbag... Planning on picking up something better at some point.

thanks for the props gerg. im just wondering if i got the fork tube radar mount how cluttered my bike would be. im also on the prowel for a touring wind screen. i want to take a road trip on my bike once i get my insulin pump straightened out. now, with all this jazz im going to have a icon primer tank bag on there too. think itll all fit ?

You can always make it fit... heh...

I decided to try and stuff as much of my crap into my tank bag as possible... so I can keep a pretty clean looking bike, as well as take it with me whenever I need to... We'll see though.. It is nice having something in better view than the top of a tankbag...

How's the insulin pump coming? Last I heard your doctor was trying to start you on something else?

ok i just bought the red display radar 8500 for 220.00 off e bay, the guy has the blue ones for 258 too, but i think the red will do better on my bike. next up, a mount.
