rekluse question [was: rear spring advice.]

[homework4fun]

Hello all, I'm a bit confused about the different options of communicating, taking calls, and/or just listening to music. I understand the cell phone w/ wired earplug headset possibility. However, is it possible to have an open channel communication with more than one person? I'm looking for ways to communicate w/ my two brothers while traveling on our KLRs. I appreciate the help, Thanks in advance! Jordan

Jordan, My brother and myself have the same problem. We want a device, so we can listen to our MP3 players while riding down the road. If we key up our GMRS radios to talk to each other, the device would kick out the MP3 player and switch over to the GMRS radios so we can talk back and forth with the same headphones, and use a throat mic. I found one such device, it was setup more for Goldwings and an intercom system between the two riders so they can listen to tunes and chat back and forth, kinda pricey ($150+) plus the earbuds, throat mic, MP3 player, and radio. We decided to use old school technology (hand signals) Regards, Richard Bessey System Administrator Vivio Technologies homework4fun wrote:

The rekluse really shines in tight first gear single trails, particularly steep uphill climbs where stalling half way up is highly likely. It also suits two wheeled powerstations like my KTM 525, especially where you are trying to control all that power just off idle in delicate situations. Good for climbing over logs like a trials bike because you cannot stall the engine. Downside is no engine braking below a certain rpm. Trick here is to blip the throttle, increase revs, this engages the rekluse clutch and now you have engine braking. If you ride your KLR in this type of terrain then it may be an advantage. However you probably should be riding something more suited. Best of luck.
