  1. if thats what youre after we have Redhook, look it up they make an IPA, ESB, Porter, Blond, and various seasonals, think it was originally or maybe still is out of washington, but yes "AB" products or Bud is like regular old Coca-Cola that its no "italian soda" or phospherus fizzy fancy ass drink but certianly no RC cola either :bier:

     

    Ben, there is a Red Hook Brewery in Portsmouth, New Hampster. Not bad stuff.

  2. I just replaced the original Sparky on my '01 this spring. It was never on a charger (though I did try this spring) and always fired the bike after the winter's rest. We'll see what the Odyssey does now.

  3. Can anyone with an 03 V11 tell me what the typical range is for a tank of gas? Or if the mapping and setup are similar for other model years, that information would be helpful also.

     

    Id like to be able to get ranges around 200 miles without going to any extensive mods, if possible.

     

    Thanks,

    How much downhill road do you have?

  4. Hi Matt.

     

    There could be many sources of trouble but it could be as simple as old gas and dirty spark plugs.

    Start with the simple stuff first. Drain or syphon off as much of the old fuel as you can, top off with fresh stuff and maybe some Techtron fuel additive and new spark plugs. (Get a couple sets of spark plugs).

     

    A search in the Technical Topics forum will turn up a couple sources for replacement relays.

     

    Good luck!

  5. UV doesn't affect carbon fiber, it affects the epoxy holding the carbon fibers together. Oxygen is also detrimental, maybe in synergy w/ the UV?

     

    Only thing I know of that would protect it from UV is sunscreen. OTOH, everyday plain old car wax will protect it from the oxygen in the air.

  7. Funny, but I always thought Pete's avitar was a cartoon caricature of some sort. Thought it was a cross between this guy and a common cow.

    I checked out a couple of Yak-sites and found the very picture. Totally legit. (Actually, a slightly different picture of the same (?) animal).
