Β  The centurion ships today. $447 that is the hardware the software taxes and shipping and first year license.Β  This is a Per bike option meaning.

To get full function I need a license good for 1 year $35 dollars. However many of the functions/tools will not require it. Like ABS cycling/bleeding.

Β  Add it all up not a bad deal for me it will do what I need and much more. Each time I use recover some of the cost that adds up fast.

Β Good week. Sidecar dropped off and the Centurion showed up Monday.Β  Now figure out how to use it. Glad the check book stayed home or the trailer might not have been empty on the way back. The White black and Red BMW rig has some amazing work do to it and built to run.

Β I tested the Centurion this morning . Disabled BAS and then enabled it and all worked prefect No warning light after disable. Bit of a learning curve with the too but it works. At least up to 2020. Word is now 2021 is going to be a new game with ECU/BCM.

Β Both some are stored their . I am just happy the check book stayed home. I was there to get my sidecar repainted and ready .

I am a sick man I fell for this one. I saw it some time back when they were building it.

Got my second shot yesterday. Moderna. No side effects. Affects? Good to have both now. Spring like weather here now. I guess I'll give the bike a spring time check up and perhaps go for a bit of a ride. We'll see if Petey minds sharing his sidecar with an oxygen bottle.Β

Β  The sidecar is done and mounted on the new Bike. Pictures will be coming when I can get them small enough to post. Payton had her first ride in it today.

Β Β Β  After it was mounted and tested we took it out a played hard with with it. The RDRS caused no issues and we did not have to turn off or disable anything.

Β Β Β  Also Hannigan himself gave me a tour of his collection. He has some really cool sidecar in there.

Β Thank you. Because of two winters of riding and 40,000 miles It was setup to go in for a clean up. Then I totaled the bike. Called them about a complete refurbish and install. They made it happen.

Some changes were made. Minor change to front upper mount and rear upper. Move sidecar 1 to 2 inches closer to bike. Not going to get to into cost because it requires a lot of details but it was more than reasonable. I will answer questions if anyone has any. I plan to do a different thread about the RDRS and how it turned out with the sidecar. I want to push the rig a bit harder before make statements about it. Otherthan to say it is working as it should.

 

This link is picture heavy. It shows some of Hannigan's collection and bike he is working on in his spare time. Some may find it of interest.

Just a note, there is no size limit on pictures.Β  We do ask that you make them a reasonable size so they don't further slow down loading. There is a maximum of 10 images attached to any one post.
