BigBF Quads - OMG!!!

[SgtBunny]

Well I finally got some time to install some of my purchases.

Installed my accessory power point - Great idea from you guys

Installed my Zumo 660 - still downloading updates.  The 2010 map update is nearly 2gig in size

Installed my BigBF's.  OMG is all I can say.  I bought them ready for my center stand install and noticed that they hang real low.  Anyone else experience this using a center stand.  I do not have my center stand installed yet but was not sure if I screwed up my install of the BigBF's.

I have the Quad's and 'had' a center stand, there wasn't any clearance issue with mine....

If I recall correctly, and at my age, that is saying a lot has been lost and deciphered, the horns set up in the area above the stand.   I want to say I had to turn the bracket over to get them up in the right spot.    If I was to do it over, I'd stick a lift under the horn and jack it up some.....  You know, a little persuasion.

One word of advice, make sure your wiring connectors are protected good.   They like to gather crud and every once in awhile one or two of the horns won't honk till ya clean the terminal..........  I finally removed all the push on connectors and soldered the wire directly to  the horn terminal and did my best to wrap them to protect them from the elements.  Probably overkill, but I hate chasing poor grounds or dead hot leads..........

That's good info RJ on the Big BF's.

I'm running them, and i was going to stick the connectors in white grease.  I'll see how that works.  If i run into trouble, I'll be soldering as well!
