Post: RE: It's a bit quiet..
I've currently got all the body work stripped off for a good polishing and wax. Preping for 12K service, need to get the Boxflyer tools first though.

Post: RE: Motomate bracket & Nav glare
I installed a screen protector (Screen Angels, believe they are out of UK) on my Nav VI and it has a matte surface with less glare, you might try that.

There were a fair amount of visitors there when we went, but it was a Saturday and it looked like a Harley group ride was forming up in the parking lot.

A buddy of mine suggested trying to start it in the garage when the ambient temp is the same as the IAT sensor is reading. I'll give that a go in the morning and let you know how it goes.
