    Park Your Ego at the Door

    Don't ever try to "KEEP UP". I was stupid back in 04 and learned the hard way, at 70mph. I'm smarter now, never again.

    Calling all midlife riders

    While living in St. Croix in the late sixties my dad got the bug for a bike and bought a 90cc honda of some sort. He out grew it and got a Kawasaki 175cc bushwacker I believe. Well my brother and I badgered him endlessly to get us a minibike. We were 11 and 9 respectively, and mom wasn't keen on...

    Future 1st Time FJR Owner

    It appears the Pirates lair site doesn't include the FJR in their backrest list of bikes. I would go with Garaulds here as well if I needed a backrest.

    1000 mile winter trip

    That looks like alot of fun, but I have to ask. What was the temps? and can you stay warm? The older I get the more I can't tolerate the cold. 1,000 miles is very impressive on a sled. Glenn

    1200CC YAMAHA dual sport

    If its like the 600 tenere it'll be europe only. I wonder what the hp and torque figures would be? I'm sure it would come in cheaper than the KTM or BMW.

    1200CC YAMAHA dual sport

    That is exactly what I've been waiting for. I was thinking about a KTM 990 adventure or even the 690, but this looks like it may be lighter. Some of you guys know Kieth from Tulsa (electronics guy). He has a group that goes to Copper Canyon Mexico every year. He's been egging me on to get a...

    Motion Induced Blindness

    If you'd like to find your blind spot and watch your thumb dissappear: Close your left eye, hold your thumb directly in front of your right eye. Now slowly move your thumb to the right. At about 15 degrees you thumbnail will disappear. You have to continue looking straight ahead for it to work.

    Torque Values Needed

    Sliders. I didn't see the question about the bar ends. I don't know what that figure is. I always just tightened those till the were good and snug.
