    Helmets on a plane??

    A 5 hour flight is as uncomfortable in gear as it is out of it. At least I wasn't cold... and I really didn't care what surfaces I bumped up in to. Or what surfaces bumped into me.

    Helmets on a plane??

    +1 to the helmet as carry on -- in a good helmet bag. Never had a problem. A few times I even rode the bike to the airport, parked in the free motorcycle parking right at the terminal (check out PDX), and flown wearing my leathers and boots. TSA let me walk through the scanners no problem...

    Moral Dilemma - Online Purchase

    ^^^ this. Except I wouldn't give a first, let alone second thought to anything owned by a Walton, Marcus, or Bezos. F them. Give the extra away without profiting from it and your conscience will be clear.

    Switched Power Vs. Constant Power.

    Everything should be switched unless you are adding an accessory with a clock. A voltage meter (if you're interested in charging voltage) should ideally be connected right at the battery with nothing in between. Any switch will drop a tiny bit of voltage and your reading will be slightly off...

    Law Enforcement - The Good, The Bad, The Ugly.....

    A: the writing in journalism is almost always passive voice. They report that things have happened to victims rather than suspects perpetrated a crime or action. It has to do with the presumption off innocence of that suspect once they have been apprehended and charged. It's the way it is done...

    Mastercraft Warranty

    Mastercraft Maximum isn't really a lifetime warranty. The original wrenches had the brand and part numbers debossed into the handles. Then they changed to etched. When that etching rubs off then your lifetime warranty is over because they can claim that it isn't a Mastercraft Maximum. I...

    Bike has power, but won't start, clicking noise on key turn

    It's not sarcasm. It's serious. If you want your problem fixed, listen to the advice. If you want to read into things and get butt hurt and still have a bike with problems then there's nothing I can do. People get all weird when it comes to wiring. It's not that hard. But it requires...

    Bike has power, but won't start, clicking noise on key turn

    You will open all the circuits when you do that. Don't do that. Things can run with a dead battery on a good charging system but they can't with no battery and no ground connection.

    ... and don't do stupid things like unhooking your battery while the motor is spinning. They will tell you nothing and possibly damage components that aren't already damaged.

    Bike has power, but won't start, clicking noise on key turn

    When you replace a battery, you should always check the charging voltage. A charging problems cause dead batteries and if not corrected, will continue to kill new batteries.
