| hi all been god knows how long. few years maybe ? i just wanted to stop in and say hi to my winged family im still loving my 09 got it 4 years 2 months . Im in the pan handle of fl right now temporarly . Sux i had a new tire on my bike 4 months old and there ya go nail in it. So I put on a diablo . Theres a guy here that mushroom patch plugs all in one a metal barb that goes inside out and is sealed with a patch. Im gonna get that done for an emergency tire. I have done alot of dealing with bike bandet HANDS DOWN AWESAOME!!!!!!!!! i just orderd front rear and p-break pads 19 for the rear 22 for the front and 41 ( ouch ) p-break as its a honda only item. I looked at my pads and at 21000 miles its time. Sadly something bit my lower left body skirt and had orderd that ( 1 1/2 crack where kickstand is ) and with the pads total was 138.45 no tax no shipping :-) got it from bike bandet. Im loving my bike still stock belt. My friend had 27,000 on his and still going strong . im gonna pull my cover at 27,000 miles and inspect my belt. When I change it ill do my sliders also just because. Like a waterpump on a car changing a timing chain/belt waterpump is removed so replace it with a new one. no sence in going in 2x. Anyways anybody in the western part of the panhandle of florida wanna get together for a ride? Glad to be back with da family

| Eddie good to hear from you. You may find out you don't need the parking brake pads, unless someone has ridden with the parking brake on there's no reason for them to wear out. The new pads don't have a very thick lining to begin with. I have never tried but I'd bet that even with no lining left they would still hold the bike when parked if adjusted properly. I have had the best luck with Honda pads and my local dealer gives me a 20% discount so the price isn't too bad. I put ECB brake pads on the first time I needed pads and they ate my disk up. When I went to the dealer and asked what they thought was the best brand and they said on most bikes they recommended aftermarket parts but with Hondas they had the best results with OEM parts. So I bought a Honda disk and pads and my disk has held up great. Ever since then I've stuck with OEM brake parts. |

| How much thicker is the new p-brake pads? If I remember the new p-brake pads are only about 1/8" thick, not near as thick as the regular brake pads. |

| Hi Eddie, Thought maybe you'd driven your SWing off the edge of the earth or somethin'. Good to see you're still alive and 'kickin'"... Just to let everyone know, it was the "blingmeister" who nudged me into the Silver Wing world way back '05 when we were on the 'other' site and I was asking whether or not I should give it a shot; not having any experience whatsoever. I know he probably doesn't remember but I do. Anyway, the rest is history. Stick around this time Eddie. A lot of folks missed ya'... |

Don't be daft, it's a forum not a family. It's a load of Silver Wing enthusiasts with a common interest. You're not a pimp or a rapper or even a dude, so why not use the common language we share a bit more articulately. |

| Yes mate you were here long before me but I'd never heard of you before today, and as you see from my post count I've been around this 'family' a lot more than you have in the the last 4 years so what's the excuse for not keeping in touch with your online family.
What's with the 'cold personable part of the world' have you been over here? I reckon I've seen more of the US than you've seen of the UK or Europe. |
