Hi, Antal! Welcome to PASQ ADV1! I'm in line to get my own trailer for my GSA and have been sourcing power solutions. I went to Powerwerx and got their 60Ah solar panel and the PWRbox MINI Portable Power Box 20Ah. It's a LiFePO4 in a fused power in/out container. When I get my trailer, I'll...

Hi, Rod & Luke! I was looking at ways to secure loads to the top of the ADV1 and saw this - Universal MOLLE Panels - Made In USA, Lifetime Warranty - BuiltRight Industries Would this work, do you think?

Great writeup and pics!

Yeah, I'm not depending on the CANbus to charge the Powerwerx battery, that's the solar panel's job. :D I worked with a guy on the 14th (Jay Fenton) taking down a ham operator's 30' antenna from his home and then toured Jay's welding/fab shop in Richmond. Very knowledgeable and if you ever...

My day was completely unlike yours. :D I ran the bike 142 miles down to Madera on Rt 99, had lunch at Perko's Cafe - 1825 Cleveland Ave, Madera, CA 93637 - (California burger and vanilla shake made with Dreyers), then visited Quady winery where I picked up a few bottles of vino. Temps hit 95F...

Only visible differences - I have the black rims and don't have the top case. I suppose we could do a point-by-point comparison some time. :D

As long as I've lived here in CA (1999?), I've gone past but never visited Lake T. I should probably fix that problem...

2020 BMW GSA in Kalamata, with green Mosko panniers & 40L duffle, very much like yours. You have good taste in color schemes. :D

I'm getting the non-testbed ADV1, hopefully fairly soon after Rod & Luke return from the MOA rally, and it shouldn't be bobbin/axle assembly, but still...

Nice writeup, thanks!! "The heat from the exhaust MUST be deflected away from the Bobbin." Any hints on doing that?? Rod, Luke?? Thoughts??

Any way I can get a top-down picture of the top compartment? I keep on thinking there's a step/platform at the back that's a few inches deep, am I imagining things? Also imagining that the sloped angle is about 45-degrees & 4-5" long? No rush/hurry, just trying out LibreCAD for funsies. :D

Well, I'm getting senile, because I have to consider both the battery box AND the ham radio base to be stored in the top compartment and figure out antenna placement, antenna cable, power cords to either the battery box or the main bike battery, AND CAT5/6 to the radio head at the handlebars...

You met John Parodi, a friend and member of the NorCal BMW Club! Nice guy, did you make a sale? :D How many visitors/buyers so far?

Taking care of fellow motorcyclists, it's one of the best parts of what we do. Thanks for helping them out!!

My time in Cow Hamster (NH) was, at the time, very libertarianic. My time in Californicated is much less so. Too many restrictions on my Constitutional freedoms. Not happy about that.

Enjoy Idaho, ya mile-muncher!! :D

Well, that antenna takedown happened on the 14th, rusted to hell & gone, parts falling off, etc. We were able to collapse the mast into itself and cut the rotation motor off. Nobody got hurt, everything got done in an hour of focused effort. One of the guys is a professional welder and showed...

I think that map is from the BMW Connected app. Get a newer BMW and enjoy the digital wave! :D

Enjoy Idaho! I hear it's kinda like California, but with more freedom(s). And snow. Lots of snow... ;-)

Was there a convo with the RT rider about the ADV1?
