If you dont like what has worked for me, then go spend the 12 bucks on the other.
Good tip, Thanks

THEY WORK!!! I was skeptical at first until i tried one. I did a 400 mile round trip ride in baja. 200 miles each way. First 200 miles with it and by the end of the day my thumb was pretty much numb. On the way back I installed it and it made i world if difference.

[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-confused.gif[/img]Are you bashing someone for mispelling a word? Not like you couldn't understand the post. I noticed you only have 2 posts. You sure picked a good way to make friends here, huh.

WOW What attitude you have there little fella. Maybe you have to keep switching names and coming back because they keep booting you off for acting this way. There are tons of morons on this site that bash people for stupid things like that. Are we all supposed to assume that if one is bashing another that it must be his buddy? And if you have a problem with someone butting into your business then maybe you shouldn't post it on a public forum.

Yeah right. Okay fellas, from now on when some idiot is bashing another we should start playing 20 questions with him to make sure it's not his buddy. Get a life dude.
