Jack-Of-All-Trades GPS Receiver

Thu, 18 Dec 2008 17:15:24 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author HesRightUNo - Garmin markets the Nuvi 500 as a GPS receiver that works well in your automobile... and does double-duty as a bicycle or hiker GPS. Based on my so-far-limited experience, I'm a believer. In fact, I bought it with the intention of mostly using...

Mucho Monitor for the Buck

Wed, 18 Jul 2007 14:44:19 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author HesRightUNo - I was compelled to shop for a replacement monitor when my factory 19" LCD gave up the ghost, and I was told it would cost as much to repair, as to replace. I happened across the Chimei, while looking for a good deal. I would've settled for the same...

My Everyday Tire

Mon, 23 Jan 2006 18:08:32 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author HesRightUNo - After 20+ years, 108,000+ miles of bicycling, I consider myself somewhat of an authority on bike tires. Since I ride 5000-6000 miles per year, tire cost is a consideration, as is durability and performance. My experience is that most new tires (of...

music in my ears... smile on my face...

Thu, 19 Aug 2004 16:10:51 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author HesRightUNo - I've got some rather specialized listening needs. I was shopping for a player that would give me some tunes for the motorcycle road. (NEVER in town or when I'm dealing with traffic, directions, etc... but rather for those wide open spaces.) The Zen...

Typical Panasonic quality

Tue, 13 Aug 2002 20:46:09 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author HesRightUNo - A month or so ago, I got the Portable MP3 Bug. (CDs sound much better, but when you're not in a nice quiet listening room, ultimate sound quality isn't as much an issue. I wanted MP3 "on the road.") I compared the different configurations, from the...

Work in progress....?

Mon, 12 Aug 2002 17:07:10 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author HesRightUNo - I purchased a brand-new "Yepp" at a local retailer. Samsung must be constantly upgrading the design, because the features seem to be different than both those mentioned in earlier consumer reviews, AND at the samsungusa.com website. (I was concerned...

I'm choosing a different model

Mon, 12 Aug 2002 12:32:51 GMT

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author HesRightUNo - I purchased the Mojo, along with competing models from Samsung and Panasonic, with the idea in mind that I'd return two and keep my favorite. (None of the stores offer an in-store demo model - all three stores offered a 30-day money-back guarantee.)...

Top-tier touring / commuting bike

Thu, 3 Jan 2002 21:05:37 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author HesRightUNo - A bit of background - I've been a dedicated bike commuter since 1985, and have ridden 85,000+ miles as of this writing (Jan. 2002). Since rediscovering the joy of bike transportation, I have also done much recreational/fitness/touring riding. My old...

STILL Works for me

Wed, 13 Sep 2000 20:16:54 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author HesRightUNo - (ORIGINAL OPINION, SEPT 2000 - UPDATE FOLLOWS)

I just turned over 5000 miles on my '00 FXDX, 4 months to the day after I rode it home. About 3k of those miles were open-road traveling, the rest close to town (local riding and within 100 miles or so...

Harleys WHY? Here's WHY...

Tue, 25 Apr 2000 21:13:39 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author HesRightUNo - Some people love Harley-Davidson motorcycles. Some hate them (generally people who have never owned or ridden, based on my experience). If you're sitting on the fence, here are some considerations, and responses to the "Harley WHY" opinion...
