@Wei2go: Which screen did you buy from advrider? It seems that I cannot find any PCX items on their website.

@Kruger: With the highwayman screen, do you look through or over the screen when riding?

My length is about 1.75-1.8m, which should put my seated height at around 0.9m, and if I look straight ahead I look over the screen. Not that it is a wind/rain factor at all because the airflow over that windshield blows most of it over my head. When driving at 100km/h in heavy rain, only my shoulders and helmet catch some rain..

Welcome! That's quite the eye candy that she hangs with, especially the one with wings.

The advrider.co.za website isn't very up to date. Best is to phone them. I got this screen and top box from them http://www.kappamoto.com/Bauletti/Monol ... /K47-MANTA http://www.kappamoto.com/My-motorcycle/ ... %20scooter

With regards to the battery tender. When I bought it, it came with a permanent lead to connect directly onto the battery http://optimate-battery-charger.co.za/s ... ead-sae-71

The permanent lead then gives you an sae connection that you can plug and play with other accessories.

I got the sae to Cig socket accessory http://optimate-battery-charger.co.za/s ... ket-sae-76

If you look at the bottom of the website under accessories, you'll also find a sae to USB accessory

The good thing about the permanent lead is that it is fused.

The bad thing about the setup is that it is direct to your battery, so you have to make sure you don't leave things charging for extended periods with the motor off

Hi ert13! Welcome. Would you be kind enough to add your location to your profile? I keep glancing over at everyone's location while you're talking to each other and I'm guessing you're from Africa too?
It's easy to add it, just follow my directions below. Thank Ya. Oh, by the way, I should be receiving a 2015 Givi screen today, via the Big Brown Box Truck. I love getting prezzie's 8)

Keep trying. Ive only ever see one guy running the shop whenever I pop in. So if he has customers, you tend to have to wait a bit. As for price, eish, I can't recall. I just remember it being less than half the price compared to the Honda dealership.

Very nice video. What camera? Are you doing anything to the video like stabilization?

I use a chest mount and a Mobius. It works well now but took a lot of changes to get it the way I like it.

How was it? Looks like a complete traction nightmare IMO. Dirt almost constantly on the road, plus it looked like it was just raining. Had a little slip at a stop sign yesterday after a minor rain. New paint, didn't wear down to the pavement yet, was still on the brakes when I ran over it and lowsided. Real slow, so I didn't even scuff the panels, but it was enough of a jolt to pop a wire loose and cause my right blinker to stop working.

Kind of makes you watch the road suspiciously for any crap you could possibly slip on.

I thought the same. We have so many clear days I skip the few when the roads are wet.

I use a GoPro3 Black, with no video stabilzation.

The roads were just a tad wet due to night rains. Other than that, thats what our roads look like over here in SA ;)
