Hi   At that price point it is a try it an see if you like it to me. I buy lost of stuff from DX,  much of it is great value for money, but there are some crap items too, that's the way they are  free shipping always though so well okay now maybe I am going to have to throw one of...

Glad you are weathering it well Dude. There is no replacement for experience in a situation like that. You gotta let the automatic motor functions kick in and bypass the thinking brain in order to react quickly enough. Probably saved a lot of damage to the bike too. Keep the cheer up!

Well ya gotta get back in the saddle, as they say! It does look like you need some new skins on that bike though. Especially, in rainy Portland. that is Oregon I take it. I have had some good rides around your parts, when I lived in Vancouver.

The V-Moda Cable only with the cloth covering and 45degree plug which sells for $10 is  Only 72" or Six feet long. This is by actual measurement . LOL  

  Ya , she was hot , and fiery and well, somethings seem great at the time, but life it teaches you things.   That motocross sounds something like my Fazer the day I got it from the dealer.  I had previously only ridden my Kawasakis , had no idea what I was getting into. The dealer took...

Ya I still, this long later, miss that motorcycle. Kind of like a first love. Even though I now have two of the very same bike, but its not the same. Well I don't quite know how the physics of the whole thing worked out but it seems to me that after a very brief slide to the edge of the...

Well Okay twist my arm Funny story, It was on a wonderful autumn evening.  I had been having some fun with the twisties up and down mount Seymour outside North Vancouver. After an hour or so of scuffing elbows and knees, I came to the rest stop to re-pick up my gal at the time, it was the...

I concur Yarrk!! I too didn't know to look for a Motorcycle fi.   My riding began in 1981 with a Kawasaki 440 ltd:    like this one at first, then I cafe' d it to a 1/4 mile machine by 1982   I Had it for another few years then I went to this: Kawasaki 1975 H2 Triple two...

yes I ordered mine from full compass, they were helpful and courteous, the price was indeed $74, until mine were back ordered and then sent via ups and I had to pay their freaking brokerage fee of $35.00. 

  Quote: Well I guess you could call it 4-wire equivalent, being ware of, and due to the low range of resistance I expected to find I defined the resistance of the test leads, ( through testing I have marked each of my test leads for resistance) I used this value and subtracted...

RE: Pars's question on post 46870     just for comparisons sake  a new Fostex cable unused from a new pair of t50 rp has the following resistances:   at tip 1.6 Ohm at midpoint 1.5 Ohm at collar 1.6 Ohm   these measurements were taken with a recently calibrated Fluke 177...

I just got mine last week from fullcompass?  Where did you get yours from?   Sometimes things in Canada suck!! Like snow. I haven't found any paxmate either, and shire SRH 840 pads to but no supplier in Canada I can find and nobody willing to ship them here, apparently Shure won't let...

well practice is the best option, and don't forget to  flux even with resin core solder.  otherwise you can check out the  the Vmoda cable for $10 off their site it fits and works great.       http://v-moda.com/cables/   http://v-moda.com/audio-only-cable/

Thank you for the clarity that you have both, wje and rhythmdevils, given in the last couple of posts. the 450 odd pages of this thread had obfuscated in my own mind where to start with my own mods for these new phones. Now if I can pick out those crucial items about dampening from the...

Has anyone tried using one of these cold heat solderers for these sensitive joints?       for reference this is the How stuff works wiki:   http://science.howstuffworks.com/cold-heat.htm     I have used mine quite a few times and It does fine work well on electronics boards and...
