Took out the Husky for the first time Saturday. Rode for 4 hours(Stanley Park, UBC, Richmond, Horseshoe Bay, BBY Mountain).. Found out the hard way the Fuel light doesn't work. Luckily I was at the top of BBY mountain and was able to coast down the mountain to the Chevron.. Wont make that mistake again..

Ya, I was just too into the moment to remember that these things take gas. :P
This never happened to me on my ruck, but then i'm used to group rides and the 2strokes always needed to gas up. So I was never low.. Luckily it didn't happen on the hwy. I didn't use the trip odo, but will start using that more often.
How many of you guys ride with a helmet cam? If so, what do you use? I'm looking for something inexpensive. Cant really afford a gopro.

I've only ever used GoPro, but I have heard good things about Contour cameras. This one is supposed to be pretty good value for money from what a friend of mine says, and from reviews I've read.

My CBR600RR had a great fuel meter that was very accurate... for a very long time I thought the fuel meter on my Daytona was defective because it was so inaccurate. Then I realized it was the engine's temperature gauge.

How are those mirrors? Do they vibrate much or are they pretty useable? I bought some cheap plastic mirrors for my old bike and they vibrated so much that they were not even worth having! Wish I had spent a bit more money and got something decent but I ended up selling the bike in the end.

Haven't had a chance to ride it yet since changing but from other reviews I've read no they don't.
Edit: Cost of the mirrors I thnk was around $130 or so each plus I had to buy the barends and the ones I chose were the Rhinomoto type which were $70 for the pair so all told probably $330ish. The mirrors are CRG Arrow. There are quite a few people using that combo on this bike, I liked the look more then the circle shaped option but it's a personal preference thing.
