    Oh Sh*t, I just turned old.

    Miller, Goodman, the Dorseys, even Cugat & a few others, fine yeah! Mr. Wunuful-Wunuful & his hokey Champagne Bubbles? ...Not, Nope, Negative, N'uhuh!! Not much for Mitch either. Even my folks who were huge Big Band Swing fans didn't care for Lawrence.

    Does punctuation matter?

    My "one single word" spelling pet peeve, which is abused beyond belief on any site pertinent to wheeled transport [a majority amongst those I visit, this forum not excluded], would have to be the use of break for brake! Aaaargh!

    Dealer performs hack job!

    Another horror story for you, once again beginning w/ the ignition recall. The dealer in this case is Pro Caliber Motorsports, the Honda/Yamaha dealer in Bend, Oregon. First I took the notice in and they said they'd order the new unit that day & call when it arrived, ...couple weeks pass they...

    WOW - The Feej Is Fast!

    On the way to NAFO last summer comin' outa one of those little bergs somewhere between Vernal UT & Craig CO, I had a big Ram turbo deisel that wanted to be on my butt @ 90+ so I decided to give it some. I held it open 'til I figured he was far enough back to leave it be [quarter mile?], didn't...

    An Audio Guy Tries to Make a Video

    Yeah, like you said that's pretty "lame" ;) , so you'll need LOTS of practice, meaning we'll have to endure :rolleyes: watching all of your amateurish efforts for God only knows how long :yahoo: ! ........NICE 1st effort!

    Auxiliary Cell Design

    Joe, Thanks for responding to my not so timely comment, I posted after reading less than the entiire thread, and then after doing so realized it was less than a relavent comment & was just about to return and do a major edit. A very interesting discussion this, ...and I'm one who'll probably...

    Auxiliary Cell Design

    Just a thought, but if you're going to be wanting to access the space beneath, then incorporating a hinge into your mounting system [front, rear, or one side] with a bumper catch opposite [threaded securely] would seem a good option. Three points of contact minimal perhaps? Looking at the low...

    How old are you FJR riders?

    63, currently no SO [but who knows what's up the road], so nearly always a solo rider. If there were a steady wannabee pillion in my life she'd be heavily encouraged to become a pilot, since as big as I am between me & a touring load the bike is about maxxed, ...besides, I don't really enjoy...

    Cleaning the Toilet Bowl...

    Don't know where you got that'n, but if you haven't actually seen it done you don't know how funny it is! No, I don't hate cats, and no it's not very amusing to the cat, ...not that it actually causes him any real harm. One evening about twenty years or so ago, I was over at my freinds Steve &...

    It's not really Harley envy...

    Leave us not forget that the current holder of the "fastest production car on the road" title is the Bugatti Veyron, ...and it's French!

    I finally did it...

    Congrats on the new ride & welcome to the nuthouse!! You're in a little corner of paradise for certain, but I gotta believe you'll soon be hoping for an assignment to where there's some place to go other than round in a circle! Some place where you can go for a weekend ride w/o seeing the same...

    In the spirit of Stupid is as Stupid Does

    Moooooorrrrrroooooon! Guns'n'Booze, great combo! End up in shock & the cigarette will be a big plus too! Great law enforcement candidate!!! That boy's just thinkin' alla time, ...question is, about what?!

    So I Think I'm About To Know A Dead Guy

    Been away from the computer for a coupla days, but was coming back to suggest exactly what Mr. Carver has just beat me to, ...I'd say just print a copy of this thread and hand it to the kid, that it comes off a motorcycle forum might peak his curiosity [or not], but maybe he'll read it [not...

    So I Think I'm About To Know A Dead Guy

    Write the condolence letter now, stamp it & put it on the shelf, ...it'll save time later, all you'll have to do is post it! Yeah, pretty crude remark I realize, but... The kid doesn't know ****, doesn't particularly wanna know ****, and is obviously completely convinced that no one older...

    Spring has dun sproigned!

    Nice Pix, Thx! "The Barn" is way cool looking w/ it's vine covering, I see a set of stairs, is it just a barn/shed/shop or is it more, residence above also perhaps?

    Doing some planning for mods . . . How about your thoughts?

    The German made SWMotech/Bags-Connection [check Twisted Throttle dotcom] have an interesting methodology for bag mounting/bag powering that you might find appealing. But, if you really want to put together a real network in your tankbag, I'd suggest you talk to the good folks at RKA...

    Capital City MC Death Valley Trip

    Nice Vid & Slideshow! You get lotsa shots w/ a back seat shooter, and she's obviously pretty accomplished at her "on the roll" technique, ...liked her "panorama" in the vid! Interesting variety of folks/machines, ...also quite a divergence in ideas about what constitutes adequate luggage for a...
