I booked a room! I'm really looking forward to it. I've been tooting around solo for the last several years. It would be nice to meet some new people.

Looks like I am late to the game but still interested in attending. Camping or motel is fine with me. What's the latest on availability - I'm not getting much info over the internet.

Comforted reading this and thanks so much taking the time to post it. Clutch has no slip whatsoever. I did a thorough inspection and cleaning of relay arm (if I recall, I had to grind off bolts for the centerstand and replaced them reversed for easier future access). New brake pads all around...

Yea, it's actually REALLY great and extends the riding to all year if you live in a seasonal climate. It all started when I rode the bike to Texas to visit a homesick friend under the agreement I could store the bike there for a winter. When I drove home in the late Spring, the weather was...

This may or may not end up in NERPT but I’ve done some searching and there’s too much to compile so starting a new thread. I am seeking advice on maintenance I should be doing so that I can decide whether to bring the bike home for a good teardown. I just turned 75,000 miles on my ’09 and it...

ure Wht you mean by "RF". I did a quick bleed at each caliper and the right front (oh I just figured out RF). The front seemed to spit a little air and I only bled until the res. was at lower level.The pedal definitely got stiffer. Will top up tomorrow. I'm anxious to get out riding as I...

Bike has been in covered storage in Phoenix since March-ambient outside air temp. Got down here today and noticed the brake pedal pressed all the way down. Even pumping the brakes didn't increase resistance. Reservoir is full, no brake fluid puddles. Rear caliper is engaging at least as can't...

Most synthetic is dino.

Hi, all. So I’ve hardly been on the forum since last August. Too busy playing outside with all my toys I suppose. But I have been very much meaning to give a shout-out to BigJohnSD and a genuine thanks to him and a few others not on this forum for their generosity last season. 2017 was our...

This is so long overdue that it's hardly worth posting, but I wrote the following while at the airport the day after the eclipse. May as well post it instead of the recycle bin. I'm making a related post in ride planning as well. Amazing! Just one of the many words I would choose to describe...

You're right! When I first watched this vid, I thought the bike that got laid (layed?) down was a modified FJ'er. Still not sure what is is...BM'er? Guzzi?

....er, kinda look like FJR's. This was entertaining: Hit and Run Driver Gets Arrested With Guns Drawn Thanks to Santa on a Motorcycle https://www.ebaumsworld.com/videos/lady-commits-hit-and-run-in-front-of-a-youtuber-he-gets-her-arrested/85536680/

Took the words right out of my fingertips. I always buy the cheapest fuel with no ethanol. In Canada that's often only premium and only at certain stations. Having ridden mainly State-side all season, it seems to vary significantly from State-to-State; as do octane ratings (really, 83...

Must be the Slick 50.

From what I've read, the difference between 80% and 99% is negligible but the difference between 99 and 100% is night and day :P

I'm pitching a tent along the side of hwy 20 just east of Shoshoni, WY. Should be interesting. Surprisingly there still are vacancies on Airbnb and Booking... Cheapest one started at $2200.

Hi all. I drove the bike across the country last month and left it parked in Ontario then flew home to do my patrol shift with the Coast Guard. I'm driving the bike back in a coupe of weeks and stopping somewhere around the WY/ID border to camp overnight on the side of the road to watch the...

Wish there were more like her on FJRs. https://www.ebaumsworld.com/videos/girl-on-hayabusa-trolls-hellcat/85408820/

Some good info:
