    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

I read the article on Vetter and as my bike is covered in Vetter stuff I checked Ebay for some Hippos Top a the page were these looked good so I bought them.
Came yesterday,, WOW a 1981 product don't think it's ever been on a bike, they are as new!! My bike has been sitting under the house since Sept so kinda dusty but I put them on the bike and took a couple a pics, I know wrong thread but this is a response to AZR.

Just saw this Fred. They look fantastic, very practical. I'm jelous, like you said they look brand new. Have you had a chance to try them out yet?
 
I went out for a ride yesterday on my 82 850G. It wasn't that cold 60's but dropping to lower 50's. I plugged in my Gerbings jacket and gloves. Oh momma did that feel good. I didn't want to get off my motorcycle. No apparent problems with the motorcycle or charging issues. I've never used my heated gear on the 850. Just on the BMW.
