    Maybe try calling customer service? When I dealt with them, they were great. Very helpful. May be something simple, or might be the unit itself

    Did you set the mileage to the same as your KLX? I had under 1000 miles on my DRZ, and sold it before I put in the actual miles.

    I’ve ordered everything I think I need for the tablet system, taking a trip to Cali this weekend so it’ll be next weekend when I get it setup.

    Rough cost is $650, the only things that doesn’t include is a microSD card for the tablet (I have one laying around I’m sure I can use) hardware for the Ram mount if they don’t have everything that I need, and the only thing I may add in the future is a cheap OBD reader and adapter so I can run Torque on the tablet.

    Not cheap but not bad for a system that I can use on the bike and then unlock the tablet from the bike and bring it in to work to take notes or jump on teams meetings and be able to do small photoshop projects also. I would’ve spent about 65% of this total on a dedicated GPS and had a smaller screen and less capability.

    I've said it before, and will again. I'm not typically a fan of loud colors.....but damn they look good on that bike. They just "fit" if that makes sense.

    I bet it looks amazing. the primary colors on it are very retro which always looks good on a bike like that. And the cosmic glitter is just enough extra for it to pop and stand out, without being so extra it looks like you took a bath in glitter. At least from the pics you sent.

    I finally cleaned my fairings over the weekend after owning it for nearly 8 months lol...I'll snap a pic later for you guys since I'm working right now. Man the bike looks pretty. Am I the only one that has a serious aversion to full blown washing of the bike? I'm just so concerned I'll short something out or use the pressure washer too close and ruin something...even though I know they're built to take it and I've never done so with a pressure washer before. I just used a spray detailer and it did a good job of getting everything clean, though I definitely ran through a ton of MF towels wiping it down clean.

    Even with my general dislike for stickers, that thing is purty.

    Awesome ride. I had the 04. The bike is so refined, but a beast if you get on it. I never could push it to the limits on the street. Put a Yosh slip on and it will sound amazing.

    agreed it works very well with the colors and the glitter i was worried was gonna be way to much but thankfully its more like a pearlescent in a cars pain where its visibile but not in your face which im happy with.

    very nice! i gave mine the 2nd wash since owning it lmao i hit its underside with the power washer since thats where the dirt was haha

    tbh ive never worried about that to much but im never hitting it directly with the wand either

    see i love stickers lol all the stickers on my headlight shroud is parts on my bike minus like 3 of them are from my truck
    agree on the frame i think gold wheels would be the best option thou lol i found a vinyl that would look good but its 180 for a small patch....
