I had it done and also had new tires (Pilot Roads) put on. I can't tell you if they compensate for each other, but the speedo error is just about exactly the same as it was before the new guages and new tires. -- so if they did anything to the guages --- by putting on Pilot Roads - I must have...

9 hours on the road and I'm home from WFO5. bike is moderately clean - grass has been cut (discovered daughter had a party while we were gone) and I'm ready for one more cigar and a cold one. First of all - thanks to Dale and staff for all the hard work. My big problem is that I'm just dead...

shit man - I'm from Nevada - just a hiatus in San Diego - I love the heat - but I'd rather ride in comfortable weather. Just trying to save the life of a fellow rider. seriously - if you aint used to riding in the heat you had better have water and you had better stop and cool off. it is a...

SuperBrace UPDATE - rode 200 miles of sweepers and TIGHT twisties today - Super Brace ROCKS ~

Rode up to Downieville today -- on 49 via Grass Valley. Saw about 20 bikes today and at least 12 of them were feejers - so folks are arriving. A suggestion to some that might want to be riding 89/49. If you had planned on riding one direction, say from Reno to The end of 49 and then returning...

beginners tool kit start with 1. Set of metric sockets - say 1/2" drive or if you have the money and tool box go for 1/4, 1/2 and 3/4" You need Metric - but typically you will get both metric and SAE 2. Set of metric allen keys or T-handles - might as well buy the set instead of just...

I purchased a SB in early 05 - never put it on - sent it back in Oct 05 - didn't hear from them - emailed a few months ago and then again a few days ago. Tell me to call and they will work something out. WTF? It's been months and months and I still don't have a SB for my 04 FJR ABS. I don't...

I'll be leaving o:darkthirty on Sunday morning - heading for Sandy Eggo. Tooling up and down 395 to I-15 - last time I did it wasn't too bad, but I got snowed on at Mammoth. Just bring plenty of water and gas up before you hit Bridgeport - or get a loan for gas. Lee Vining aint much better -...

A couple of days on the SuperBrace. Did a little scouting on the way to and from yesterday - off in the mountains around San Diego - with the new Superbrace installed. As promised - I was able to ride the same roads I ride to work every day and add a few more to get a feel for the brace. I...

only banjo debacle I know of was in "Deliverance" tada dum da dum da dee dee dumb scott did mention banjo bolt - while he was installing on my bike.

to all concerned. Went to the final fitting for my superbrace this evening after work. This time I met Scott from Superbrace in San Clemente - sort of half way between us. Seems they were waiting for an '05 to show up so the could check to see for sure if what they made for the '06 would be...

I had the service done last Friday - my dealer called me about the bulletin, ordered the part and called me when the part came in. As I needed new tires already = I scheduled both on Friday. Work was done as promised and the functional instant MPG thing is a somewhat useful tool in about one...

well well well - you sure gave enough hints at WPF - all I can say to you, my friend is.... Sun Block !!!! is your friend. and ask if you still have your boony hat? Boony hats are OUR friend.

interestingly - new PR's on the bike yesterda and calibration run done this morning. Same size tires as the stones, but that can be misleading and perhaps it was because I have the new speedo cluster installed, also. As it turns out - either the new speedo and new tires are pretty much exactly...

what time are you meeting in Truckee? I was planning on riding from San Diego to Grass Valley on Sunday, but could make a detour (possibly) and head out a day earlier. I'll be riding some of those same roads that week as I'll be staying in Grass Valley a couple of days = then Donner Lake for a...

as others have said - you killed the battery with the lights. two things - 1. heat is just a stressful to a battery as cold. different stress, but the result is the same 2. I have had only 1 dealer EVER - properly service a new battery - even on a new bike. The best thing you can do for...
