Well for those of us living in the colder climate during winter it's almost time to put the Visions away and maybe start thinking of what changes or additions we might make before warm temps come again. Personally a drink holder for either my co-pilot or myself would be nice during some of the hot weather rides we took this year. Also I like the brake light mod that keeps the tail end lit up is appealing to me. How about anyone else?

Sometime before Daytona will be doing cams and PC-V. Also going to install Bushtec hitch and HOPE to be doing the MBW rear lights too.

I am thinking of adding a reverse view camera. Perhaps it could be wired to come on when reverse is engaged. I have nearly finished my motor bike hoist, just needs a bit more work before painting. So far I have lifted the bike 2 feet high and it needs to be a bit more stable before I take it higher.

MBW tailight looks interesting. Need to sell other stuff first though.

Going to try to get rid of a few rattles, especially in the tour box, also a couple small ones in the front end. Probably do the brake light mod for more lighting on the rear as well as the tour box lights/turn signal mod. Will do a more permanent install of the Garmin 665 XM antenna. For me that's about it. I don't see any need for additional power upgrades and the original paint is still in great condition so a custom paint job is still probably a couple seasons away.

Hoosiervic,

I have found that stuff in the bags and truck make it seem like the trunk lid is rattling. When my bags and trunk are empy, no rattles.

I did have a trunk lid rattle at first and here is how I fixed it... free and permanent.

Hope you get all you noises settled.

Well, I don't have a heated garage to work in, so my winter project is watching the weather channel to see when I can ride again.

Yes I have a set. The wife loves them especially on long trips. What is great about them is when she is not with me they fold into the rear passanger area, don't even know they are there. Only time I take them off is when I go on trip without her. Easly to take on and off. They are a bit spendy but worth it to keep the wife comfortable. Warning: at times on long rides you made need to check and make sure she has not fallen asleep, they provide that much extra comfort.
