Sounds like you had yours done at South Valley Motorsports in Salt Lake. Did it take them two tries for yours also? Even though I asked them directly before they started the work the bike still rolled out with two shiny new keys. "May I speak with the service manager please?" This is why I...

Fabulous, Tenchi! You're wise beyond your years. Hell, you're wise beyond mine. I'm pushin' 46. Been legal since '85(?) but took about 9 years off. Did a summer or two of semi-legal riding before that but not enough to dent the odometer. I have about 110K under me now on the Feej and the...

As Dave Hough says... Watch out for Surface Contaminants!

IIRC, Cdogman has taken this class (and is planning on it again this year?). I think his take on it was very positive. I've also heard nothing but good about the Miller Motorsports park. And no, I'm not affiliated with them. ;)

I think this is the bridge I was thinking of near Capitol Reef. Beemerdons right, 128 along the Colorado river is spectacular. I'm jonesin' for a ride pretty bad right about now. :rolleyes:

Fabulous! A site I don't live in and don't have friends that would curse my name for not calling while I was in town visiting a bunch of manics riding FJRs. Thanks for all the hard work you'll be/been putting in.

BD, That's quite a challenge. Some of your descriptions sound like the souhtwestern part of the state near Capitol Reef but I can't put my finger on it. If you know some more town names that might narrow it down. I know the feeling about wanting to visit that same place you saw years ago but...

Scuba - believe me, if I could I would. I only left back in '02 because there was no work at all. I've never seen anything like it - I was out for a year and a half. Even as a Sun certified Java geek I couldn't get a gig at Micky D's (they were only hiring PhDs). I watched more gifted...

Great thread. Perfect for daydreaming. If anyone's interested, here's what I've tried: Central Ohio Central Connecticut Long Island (Nassau Co.) Boston Los Angeles (Ontario, Pasadena, Rancho Cuckamonga) New Hampshire (Salem) Boston suburbs (Woburn, Acton, Tewksbury) Denver suburbs...

Absolutely hysterical! But mentioned once before.

I've been using it for years (didn't it used to be MozillaMail?). Great stuff. Also, if you have to work on both Linux and Windoz machines you don't have to re-wire your brain every time.

Ltr, I see you're in Norfolk and I know it gets hot over there. You might consider looking into kevlar Motoport/Cycleport gear (Toe? Toe? Are you out there, Toe?!?). I've had a 2 piece Roadcrafter for years and have recently switched to Motoport. Don't get me wrong - I love Aerostich, but...

A month or so ago I posted in "Other Bikes" about a fuel leak on my VFR after adding Stabil in anticipation of winter. While tearing it apart I discovered that all four clamps that secure the insulator/carb connections (do you still call that a throttle body?) were backed completely off as if...

If you want to bring out the big guns, have a look at "Steve, don't eat it!" I might try the Urkel-Os but that's about it.

True, we do get a little sad this time of year putting Stabil in our tanks and haulin' that nasty old truck up the canyon to go skiing. Then, out of the blue... ...it all seems just right. :rolleyes:

"SHADO Control, this is Moonbase. UFO bearing 3-5-9, vector 34, blue..."

BG, What a fantastic trip report. You really saved me from my cabin fever (as I sit looking out the window at the snow). Way back in '01 I took my VFR across country and spent a little time in the Finger Lakes region. What beautiful country. As I got close to Watkins Glen I noticed there...

No trouble at all. The clip on the end of the gauge is very easy to use.

Hey Pat, My favorites within what I consider "Santa-able" items are these: On the lower end: If you already have an air-compressor this guage is worth it's weight in Au. I picked mine up at a ranch supply place ($16 if I remember) and wondered if it would be accurate to within 5 psi. Turns...

Holy Guacamole, Batman. I bought a mount/demount bar a couple of months ago on the tail end of your group buy. I've done two tires with it and it did get a bit easier the second time around. I'm thrilled. You can bet your sweet patootie I'm gonna point folks toward NoMar and this post in the...
