It has enough to run the scooter and the charging system only charges when you are over 3,000 rpm's. What I did on my old Suzuki GS was to turn on the heated grips when I was going over 3K rpms and when I encountered urban traffic, I would switch it off. Perhaps you should look into a "heat troller" rather than a rheostat type.<br /><br />bob <br /><a href="%E2%80%9Dwww.wetcoastscootin.blogspot.com%E2%80%9D" rel="nofollow">Riding the Wet Coast</a>Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05258612401956399482noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7776318709416054670.post-42685971314575398652011-11-22T20:36:23.556-05:002011-11-22T20:36:23.556-05:00David,

I know that the Vespa GTs can handle the load, but the LX150 might be borderline. I don't want to invest time and money in the LX if the solution won't really work. I'd prefer to put the money into a GTS instead. I'd really appreciate your insights. It's a bit much for the comment space on the blog, if you're up for providing the advice I'd appreciate an e-mail at david@masse.org.<br /><br />Thanks for your comments.David Massehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09346419242154545286noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7776318709416054670.post-87354692461733204822011-11-22T11:23:54.012-05:002011-11-22T11:23:54.012-05:00Bob, I have done very, very little video editing. ...Bob, I have done very, very little video editing. Right now our MAC's hard drive is maxed out, so before I can do anything I have to migrate all our photos and music to an external hard drive. Once that's done, I'll start some research into video editing software for dummies. I really like your GoPro videos, especially the captions. Don't be surprised if one day some very "bobskoot-looking" POV videos start showing up here.David Massehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09346419242154545286noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7776318709416054670.post-36220064253923699282011-11-22T06:52:56.844-05:002011-11-22T06:52:56.844-05:00I and my Symba feel famous!

There is so much to do during a Montreal winter I will not feel, too sorry for you. But, it would drive me crazy to not be able to ride. I think if I lived there I'd have to have a sidecar rig . . . or, a snowmobile :)Keith - Circle Bluehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11992667666539622569noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7776318709416054670.post-33929500739311276622011-11-21T11:58:27.437-05:002011-11-21T11:58:27.437-05:00David,

I am a clean convert, baptized and true to the path of electric heat. They saved me so many times on the road. I thought, "No, never..." And now, I'm sad the charging system on my old Honda is so poor that it can't accept them. Well, it could, but I'd invariably be left stranded thanks to a flat battery.<br /><br />Brady<br />Behind Bars - Motorcycles and Life<br />www.behindbarsmotorcycle.comAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03424120592303852860noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7776318709416054670.post-72360964725571577532011-11-20T23:45:08.519-05:002011-11-20T23:45:08.519-05:00David:

Also all the RAW images I have to be printed & framed. I don't have any modding to do, and I am farkled out. I will be pouring over maps and checking mileages and planning trips for next year.<br /><br />You may or may not have problems editing video so perhaps you should be recording some video now and get your software in place so that when you get your GoPro Hero2 you will already know how to process it.<br /><br />bob <br /><a href="%E2%80%9Dwww.wetcoastscootin.blogspot.com%E2%80%9D" rel="nofollow">Riding the Wet Coast</a>Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05258612401956399482noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7776318709416054670.post-5685125896332342712011-11-20T19:08:43.499-05:002011-11-20T19:08:43.499-05:00I guess that's what the winter is really for.....I guess that's what the winter is really for...
