around the gas tank).  I use the supplied double suction cup mount and hang
it right onto the underside of the windshield.  Because of the 'telephone'
clip plug, its a snap to remove and replace the Valentine anytime I park the
bike and leave it.>>

I am having second thoughts about using my Valentine since reading some 
articles by highway patrol officers in the motorcycle magazines. One of them 
said that radar detectors help them nab speeders, because if they point their 
gun at a speeder in the middle of a group coming down the 4-laner, and he 
immediately slows down, that tells them they have the right one. And several 
of them say that they can sometimes be talked out of a ticket, but never if 
they spot a radar detector in/on the vehicle. If I were going to use the 
Valentine, I would try and make it work inside the tank bag, and use an 
earphone.
