    Sena SMH-10 / SM10

    Why not just plug the Montana directly in to the SMH10, like you would an ipod?

    Preload Adjustment Knob

    My OEM plastic one stripped clean nearly two years ago. I didn't bother replacing it as I use it so infrequently and it's nothing that an adjustable wrench can't handle. This item looks great but at $45+ to ship to Oz, I'll think i'll just let apathy reign.

    Your coldest ride

    I've ridden a few times to work in -7C (19F), but that was only for 20 mins. The coldest I've ever felt was riding for about 1.5 hours just under freezing. I sat in a chair all rugged up in a warm room for about an hour before I started to get any feeling back. In hindsight, I was so cold that I...

    TCS moments...anybody else had them?

    +1. Except I was alone and mine dumped my sorry ass halfway up a dirt track hill, taking the gear lever and left footpeg out in the fall. TC2 or off in dirt!

    Fairing self-mutilation

    Or it could have been a snake falling from the sky from an overhead Qantas aircraft. :D

    Fairing self-mutilation

    I haven't yet trucked/trailered the bike, but yes that could cause that type of damage I expect.

    Sena SMH-10R

    If it's older version, which I have, is anything to go by, it'll be great. I hope they've made the earphone socket mount a bit more sturdy, or at the very least a flexible mount; both my son's and mine have broken after about a year's solid use.

    How far do you ride on reserve?

    I've worked out that with mine, the reserve light comes on with about 6 litres (1.5 gallons) left in the tank. I've gone about 75 kms (46 miles) on reserve and filled up with 21 litres, which means there was 2 litres (1/2 gallon) left.

    Fairing self-mutilation

    The bike has been barely out of my sight since I last touched that panel, either in the garage or with me out riding and coming straight back to the garage, so I'm struggling to think when something/someone had the possible opportunity to make such a stealth-like blow to the side of my bike...

    Fairing self-mutilation

    Haha! As they are quick fasterners, I just turned them with light pressure until they clicked in - a couple of nM of force at most.

    Fairing self-mutilation

    No worries. While they do look like scratches in that photo, they are actually bug smears. I just cleaned them off and took another couple of photos of that same area post-cleaning, one with flash and one without. As it is o'dark o'clock here in Oz ATM they are not the greatest. If you're still...

    Fairing self-mutilation

    Come to think of it, I had changed the brake fluid about a week ago, and there was some invariable squirting spillage when pulling the brake lever while changing that which I thought had all been captured in the big rag I had wrapped underneath the offending area. I thought I had wiped...

    Fairing self-mutilation

    I've only done about 100 kms off road (out of a 40,000 km total), and even then it's been pretty tame mostly-graded dirt roads, so I don't think its that. I'll look into the Plastech repair system, thanks.

    Fairing self-mutilation

    Wheeled my bike out of the garage the other day to ride to work, and sitting next to it on the floor were these: Upon closer inspection and removal of the right fairing cover, this is what I discovered: It seems the fairing plastic around where the two right quick release fasteners...
