Ian,I didn,t want to get into a big deal about this and you mentioned some
good points,I could say a few things about border crossings but I will keep

Dave, The law likely requires it and to be honest it makes sense to have
them on...especially around the country bumkin county I live in. I am just
saying that I never worry about the cops stopping me if I forget to turn it
on...certainly I am not worried about getting a ticket or "arrested" :-)
They would likely just let me know I had forgotten to turn it on.
However...maybe one day I will meet a nasty cop but so far have yet to do
so.

I did have a South Carolina trooper chase me down once when I was driving
my
70 Pontiac to Florida for not having my seatbelt on....I reminded him that
old cars only have lap belts and that I had it on all the time. The 20 year
old kid looked confused for a moment and let us go. I think he was looking
for a reason to stop to see if we had been drinking or contraband. Maybe
the
state trooper that stopped you thought you might have been carrying illegal
canadian aliens? :-)

Ride safe...Ian

Ian,You must be kidding about no lights on law in GA.?The last time I
checked a list it was required?Or the local cops don't care......I had a
trooper chase me for only having my spot lights on and you know
this area of
upstate NY. Dave

Bob.....what !!!! Worried about getting arrested because your headlight
wasn't on. You must live in NY :-) Here in Georgia.....we don't
worry about
 that stuff ...one of the benefits in living here in the "free" ...for
now...south :-)

Battery should last 2 yrs plus. My Wal mart $30 batteries have
held up for
 almost three years. Secret is to have a good generator....that
is what your
 problem is I think. Be sure to check your grounds
though.....they can be a
 problme source.

Ciao...Ian
