Fabulous. Don helped me out over the phone when I was stuck in western Colorado with the dreaded ignition switch failure. We haven't met but he's on my list of folks who I need to buy a beer for. Sounds like I need to add you as well. If you're in the Salt Lake area, drop me a line. I'm also...

Cripes. Another dcarver fan with an FJR and a VFR. You can't sling a dead cat around here without... ...wait nevermind. Great story but we need more details. That, and a place where I can buy keyboards in bulk. :P

Yikes. Ages ago I lived in an apartment on Cluff Crossing Rd. Probably could have crawled there (more likely crawled back). Have fun and thanks for the trip down Memory Ln.

That's cold, man. ;) I might be close on both counts. I'm pretty slow and I'm gettin' up there. Dunno if I stink yet since my sniffer has never been that discerning. How is it being a geek in Columbus these days? It's not too bad in Salt Lake right now but I suspect we're heading for...

Would you guys tolerate an Ohio native who's been exiled to Utah? I might be visiting my Mom in June.

Wow, he's a beauty. Kaiser, definitely Kaiser.

Yes, there's a ton of plumbing under there. I've got the service manual and hopefully with the carbs off I'll see something blatant. If not I'm afraid I'll be attending "Carburetors 101". Let's hope it doesn't require a dissertation. Londonderry, eh? I can see winterization is a familiar...

Thanks, guys. Fred, I'm not sure what you mean - I do get leakage when it's just sitting (enough to leave a basketball sized stain on the newspapers below and really stink up the garage). The problem is that when I pull the tank to see what's going on I have to close the tank petcock and the...

A few weeks ago I added Stabil when I gassed up my VFR since I wasn't sure how much longer I could ride till snow covered the roads (I do this every year). The Viffer has had a bit of a "gas fragrance" the last few years but since it's a '94 I figured that was par for the course. After the...

Reminds me - I need to by a Beemer.

Saw this one yesterday and chuckled inside my helmet...

Thanks, I try and maintain a certain level of "professionalism" at all times.

I'd go with the order they have them behind the bar at the Dockside :)

And TWN as well! Thanks. After a crummy day like today that was worth it's weight. For the record: Once the keys are planted - a nice, hoppy IPA is great (Squatters is good, Gen'l Sherman from Sequoia is even better). Gin is my friend. Tonic is a close associate. Not a fan of the stoggies...

My guess is that no amount of dog piling can equal how bad Phil already feels. My VFR was down the same way (fudge brownie tarmac) less than an hour after I had it home for the first time. At least it got it's first vaporized mirror out of the way. I feel for you brother. Good news is...

My pleasure. I didn't post this a few weeks back because I hadn't met Tim (and it's a horrible shot). After reading so much about him I'm sure he'd be ok with it. The Feej really is pointing North (though I think I may be on the wrong side of it). I thought I'd include the VFR in the picture...

Beautiful, Chris. The link wasn't working for me - I hope this helps...

I'm with Tahoe. Before shelling out $300+ for Honda/Yamaha heated grips that give you no choices as far as the grip itself, please have a look at my post about what I went through. It's an easy farkle and costs less than $100 if you just put your mind (and wire cutters) to it. I've not ridden...

Trigger, If you wouldn't mind putting me on standby I'd be interested in one as well. Kudos for all the work you've done on this. FjrVfr

I doubt it will help the group buy but I'm planning to purchase a demount bar. It's only $100 but if it'll help get you closer to the minimum I'll hold off. Like TellurideFJR, I just wish I had room in my garage for a full up machine. Send me a PM if I can help/wait. Otherwise I'll probably...
