    Nice setup, a bit cluttered for my liking but still nice. I have the 2011 version of your Burgman and I love it. I am planning to add the Givi 56 liter top box and the 47 liter side cases as well (the ones sold in pairs.) then the 1,000 watt bluetooth amp with 4 speaker. I'm considering adding an air ride suspension system as well anda trailer hitch to pull a small trailer with when I go off on my long trips overnight. Like you I'll have a camera facing me one behind me facing to the rear as well as a mini cam monitoring the dash. I already have the same grips as you have with the throttle boss. I'm not sure if I want to change out the windscreen yet or not the OEM one seems to handle all my needs and in the down position it literally suck the water off my face shield on my helmet.

    Late to the party. Thx for the walk around. Like to know how do you fill up your tank with your hard saddlebags? Do you have to remove it first?

    • @theSMYRNAcowboy
      @theSMYRNAcowboy  4 года назад +1

      Yes. You have to remove the left one over the gas cap to access it. The GIVI E-21's have a push button to remove them. Thanks for watching.

    if there's one thing in the biker world I can't stand it's people using their cell phones while driving. and if there on bikes I have no problem pulling alongside them and giving them a piece of my mind. if you feel a need to use your cell phone while on the bike at least show enough respect to pull over to the side of the road and do it.

  • @ArcanePath360

    Sweet customizations.
    I like the idea of the stylus, however how can this work with gloves on? Most screens are capacitive touch which require your skin to be in contact with the stylus.
    Also, do the heated grips still work okay with those grips?

    • @theSMYRNAcowboy
      @theSMYRNAcowboy  7 лет назад

      The stylus works fine. It has a rubber tip and using gloves is no problem. Just like you would use a pencil. Those grips that I put on, I don't think they would work with heated grips. Hope this helps.

    • @ArcanePath360
      @ArcanePath360 7 лет назад

      Thanks for the reply. I have a mobile phone which I can't work the screen with gloves on, and I tried the stylus, but the way a stylus works is that you have to be transferring your touch through it, to the screen and it would no way work with gloves on when I tried. Maybe you have a pressure touch screen? I've seen gloves which they sell that have a stylus built into the finger which goes through the glove and touches your finger for this reason.
      That's a shame about the grips, they look really nice.

      Angel P. Glad I could help. In answer to your question, yes. I have two of them. One I bought thinking it would sync up to my Scala Rider Q2 but it did not. The other one is a Garmin Nuvi 350. It has a 3.5 MM jack for my Q2 so I could use that one. Looking unto the Sena brand communication systems. You can pair up as many as 4 devices.

      @theSMYRNAcowboy  9 лет назад +1

      Angel P. I have gotten it up to 94 on the speedo riding interstate but I didn't know I was going that fast so I quickly dropped it down. I don't use a GoPro. I use the Replay XD720 and the Sony Action Camera. Sometimes I will use the Tachyon HD for my JIC ( Just In Case) camera on the dash. Nothing happens, I just delete the MicroSD card and put it back in. I ALWAYS run a camera when I hit the starter button.

    Great walk around and thanks for the links! Looking at the 15/16 model that you have. Thinking next spring for the jump into one of these. Questions?1. Have you had a living human passenger in the back seat?2. What is the bike rated for in passengers weight?3. You have had the ride now for about a year and the honeymoon is over, what honest cons about this ride?4. How would you rate the OEM tires and what kind of miles do you think you will get out of a set? When the day comes for a new set what are you looking at?5. Average miles per tank?6. How does the ride handle in side winds?7. Do you do your own service? Oil/filter/Air Filter/Spark Plug/LubeSorry for all the questions. Salesman will never tell you what you don't want to hear. It's all about the sale. So I look for people like yourself. Thank You! In advance!If ever in need of ATV/UTV info I would be happy to help you in anyway.

    • @theSMYRNAcowboy
      @theSMYRNAcowboy  10 лет назад

      In answer to your questions, cruise control I think they should. Don't know of any scooter that does from the manufacturer. Of course you can add one on there meaning a "True" cruise control ( not a throttle lock) for around $600 dollars. Yes that was a seat belt. It holds SGT ALF in place with a small cat collar. I have a snap attached to the Top Box to hold his head steady.
