And here I thought is was all those stopies :o

Judging from your avatar, I'd say you've got me beat. :rolleyes: I'm glad I saw it while washing, too.

I've not run Stradas but I don't think there are central wear bars on the Angels. DC - Don't be thinking I'm ever gonna forget you helping me out when I was stuck in Colorado with the dreaded ignition switch failure. When we meet and you and I are not riding/driving home - count on a massive...

Just short of 10K miles but I know that's subjective given the roads, driver and all. I've gotten more out of ME-880s (thanks HaulinAshe!) and less out of others. I was just shocked at the amount of cord showing after a few hours.

I just finished up a set of Angels and had a little surprise. They were getting long (short?) in the tooth so I had my eye on them. Last night I changed final drive oil as it was due and had some weeping. This morning I took a short ride and checked for leaks. I also checked both tires...

Jesus. He followed them for 3 minutes before they decided to get away from the cage that was following them (look at the raw, no-sound clip). They probably didn't even know it was a cop. I would have goosed it to get away from a nutcase following me at 2am, too. Then I'm sure I would have...

Nah, that's an old wives tale.

I have trouble imagining how it can be done without the MityVac. When I did mine a few months ago I gently pumped the clutch with the cover off the reservoir and put brake fluid on the ceiling.

Wow, that's a big canvas. It's a bit in the wrong direction but southern Utah has some world class roads and sights. UT-12 near Bryce and Zion rivals the BRP, the Trace and the Coast Highway in my book. Geeze, on the ride back you just can't go wrong (I picked up my Feej in Issaquah). The...

Cruppelt - I like the cost/benefit ratio on this one. I just ordered up a set along with the short stems. They'll go on with the PR2s I've got waiting in the garage. Thanks for posting!

You know the first step toward recovery is admitting that you have a problem. :)

I can't believe you guys fell for this. From an FNG no less. You da man, Fjryder! You'll fit in just fine around here. Now, can you get 'em started on oil and filters? :clapping:

By golly, you're right! I'll consider myself a Hawkeye fan instead. They're much closer (and they don't make that unpleasant "buzzing" sound). :D

No. Last time I corresponded with Wayne all he had to say was essentially "better luck next time." My dealings with Cycleport are thus concluded. Sad because my S.O. was just in the market for gear. Her Olympia Airglide is on it's way.

CP? You've got me on that one. The Dharma website had pretty good instructions for dyeing. I took a guess at how many pounds of material the jacket is and added what they recommended for dye and citric acid. Apparently the acid helps the material absorb the dye. You can use vinegar but I...

They still look black to me. If there's a brown shade to them it's too subtle for my old eyes to see.

Last summer I posted some pictures of my Motoport Hi-Viz jacket that suffered from extreme fading (thread). I finally got around to dyeing it after reading a post from another forum. I thought I'd post some before and after shots (click on thumbnails for larger images): I ordered the dye from...

You're a wise fellow Harald. I've got a long ride coming up and I think I'll follow your lead. Thanks for reminding me to keep the used shoes handy for the next lonely traveler.

If you're a truly cheap bastard (like me) you could go this route: It's really just a matter of getting your technique down.

Dude. :dribble:
