Once upon a time, both the question and the answer would have been deemed sacrilegious. So now, WC answers motorcycle cleaning and polishing questions?!? Oh how far the mighty have fallen. Just sayin.'

Played golf in short sleeves, blue skies and almost no wind yesterday. More of the same weather today with highs expected to be mid to low 60s. Too bad I have to work on the house, but really feeling your pain, Dale.

Iggy, stick to the topic. Don didn't ask what you would do, but whether what he was planning was "stupid". Good answer otherwise.

Wow - you guys all look 7.5 years younger!

L.

Ohhh goddammit . . . I just sprung a hard-on! I remember that group buy and my '05 still features clear anodized levers with blue adjusters that are otherwise identical brothers to those. Well played to repurpose those beauties so many times, sir!

Nevermind what pants says (feigning muteness) about the color, I love the matte blue. Looks great next to the Busa -- beauty and the beast.

Some of us who don’t do facebook and have lived vicariously through Dale’s motorcycle acquisition and farkling porn for more than a dozen years are now feeling left out and butt hurt by our site’s “benevolent dictator.”

Probably PWI, too.

Uhh, using the old math, it's 6 weeks, Mary Ellen.

IIRC, one of the main things that Zac focused on when he diagnosed my '05 as a ticker with 24K miles on it was the sound it made above idle. Not sure the rpm, but guessing it was in the 2,000 range. It's been 8.5 years, but my recollection was that he said something about that as integral to...

Ray, do you remember the Mobil gas station at Devonshire and Mason? I worked there during the summer of '70 and waited on 3 members of the "family" in an old gray pick-up truck (late 40s), with old man Spahn blind and in the passengers seat. The two in the bed of the truck were very high and...

Well, damn if that ain't the finest thread endorsement I've ever read on the internet! It's elderly prosaic; so much so that maybe we've even rediscovered our purpose. Could it be that the problem at the root of our investigation here was Howie falling off that fine Gen.I and onto his head?

Agree with above sentiments and what a reasonable price should be. A *LOT* of just broken in motorcycle for the money, for sure. Yamaha has been good about regularly upgrading (fine tuning) this long lived platform from Gens I through IV, but the essential goodness was all there in those two abs...

Since Mary Ellen is coming from the east (and has access to scalpels), are you ladies going to be using sharp sterile instruments or is it going to be a down and dirty wild west gelding?

Raccoon, I better not have that stuck in my head today! AARGHHH!

https://www.fjrforum.com/forum//index.php?app=forums&module=extras&section=boardrules Look again, Art. I know you're older'n me, but it can't be by that much and I see a Rule numbered "10" there. Or get your wife to look for you; being men, we often can't see shit that is right in front of us.

Hehehe . . . thats comforting, Dave. :P

Yep Sam - that bridge west of Lilouette was the worst one: longer, leading immediately into a sharp left-hander and like ice when wet. Glancing in my rear view as my tires hooked up again to see Mike go down sucked. Daves reference is to two much shorter bridges between Nakusp and Kaslo, one of...
