Visited 10 countries and covered 3250 miles on my convertible, had rain, hail storms snow and ice and sunny weather. The only thing that failed was the rear led light filled with water and the front fender got a dent due to me fitting a 12v connector at the top of the A frame and the front suspension bottomed out and hit it??
It does seem to travel more than a standard fatboy but it's probably the larger wheel so beware if your fitting a socket there!
Had the standard windshield and seat and did not have a problem with comfort.
The speakers were great and could be clearly heard at 75mph but all the music was from the zumo and it seemed so much louder than off the iPod.

Sounds like a great trip!  Can you post the link?

I will be posting some of the best clips on YouTube once I sort the footage out, here's one cruising at 110mph according to the zumo and 116 mph on the clock, I did get it upto 124mph but it read 116mph on the zumo?

So I take it the accurate reading is from the sat nav so the speedo reads 10mph too fast at the top end.
When I was doing 50mph on the sat nav the speedo read 53mph.

Narrow swiss roads with rain & cows wandering around

Moooooove over,  it is amazing how cows don't respect motorcycles.     udderly ridiculous!   

Thanks for posting the video. You certainly had some wonderful scenery on your trip. I might just have to get one of those helmet cams, it looks like a fun toy.

Yes it's a great camera (full HD) I've got around 8 hrs footage to edit now!
The new model has gps so u can see where u are on a map when the footage is played back too.

Hi Fadboy, We've also just got back from Croatia and the Benelux rally in Holland. I thought the Croatia coast road was amazing.

It was amazing, and we joined it at the top but after 4 hours of it and when the wind picked up I was glad it turned into a motorway again.
