What a bummer.

I've thought about trading it in... On a Dyna or some other "bar hopper" style bike. But not now.

It's a bummer but oh well.

And Isle of Man is some fun racing to watch! Wood love to go and watch in person.

Won't change anything Russ. Hasn't here. Mounting a cell blocker with a 100 yard range to your car might help.

Upped the fines here from $50 to $300 and 4 points off the license. Not severe enough if you ask me. The penalties for hurting someone while texting went up as well. This was driven by a MC organization here in response to one couple in particular that got killed by a texter.

It's been illegal in Wisconsin for several years now. Whopping $25 fine if you get caught.
