    Which tires....

    I got 10K miles out of the PR's and never had a problem with them. I have had the PR2's for about 3000miles and they dont show any visible ware other then the scrub in. Of the three sets of tires I have had, all were excellent. The PR2's give me the most confidence and feel noticably sticky...

    SoCal to TWN Memorial ride

    If we need to be in SB by 8:00am and allow 2.5hrs to get there we should start out from 91fwy/15fwy area by 5:30am Saturday 9/27. How about meeting at Corona Yamaha before 5:30am departure? Near 91fwy and Lincoln ave. 91frwy West, off at Lincoln ave., make left on Pomona and take the service...

    SoCal to TWN Memorial ride

    I'm thinking Plan B is going to work out best for many. Easy traffic, good warm-up for the twisties, and best all we can ride together again. Good to keep the morning sun at out backs and not in our eyes for 3 hours. So then, which hotel should we all pounce on?

    What was that? You say stay right.

    This is great advise. Stay right!........Or we might have to call the Toe-truck and Paramedics.

    Full Face helmets may contribute to fatalities?

    Seems like it was written to improve overall helmet design not to say that full face was a bad thing but could be improved upon. I think they are "trying to re-invent the wheel".

    What do you do for a living?...

    Grew up poor. If you wanted something done you did it yourself. We worked out ***** off because we didnt have any extra money. Now, I am the Maintenance man, the dog groomer, the laundry guy, the car washer, the lawn mower dude, the pool guy, the garage organizer, the painter, the bicycle...

    Tim's Alaskan (Well It's Hyder But Still....) Ride

    I'm ready. Might re-trace the trip after WFO since it will be part way up there. I've always wanted to bike to Alaska.

    SoCal to TWN Memorial ride

    DUFF, Depending on the location of meeting points that might be a good idea. Maybe the Friday nighters would be interested in a TWN Pinks run also. :dribble:

    SoCal to TWN Memorial ride

    Here's what I've been thinking. Plan A: Start out Friday 9/26 night around 7pm and ride up to Santa Barbara, Stay in Hotel and get rested for the Saturday ride and Memorial. Plan B: Get up at Sunrise Saturday 9/27 and blaze up there early enough to do the ride and Memorial. Then stay in Hotel...

    Critters

    I'd vote for the bike cover also. Then try the snap traps with peanut butter.

    SoCal Ride

    Sin Loki, thanks for the bump start this morning. Bike is in the shop and being checked out. Made it home safe thanks to AAA flatbed and a few tie downs. The bike started with the bump technique and I noticed the Datel at 10.8volts and not charging! It was like a countdown to flatline. I...

    We Lost A Great Friend

    The last thing he said to me was: "If you have any trouble let me know and I will take care of it". Tim, there is no greater pain then not being able to do the same for you now. But you can be assured that you will be in my daily prayers until we meet again. I always felt comfortable...

    I'm a NAUI registered diver and will predict that you will get completely hooked like the rest of us! FUN! I would suggest completing your dive course before you go on your vacation. Get all the experience you can so your basics are solid and you make your mistakes among instructors you know...

    Mt Evans Question

    Did Mt. Evans during NAFO and it was the highlight of the trip as far as rides go. Dont miss it! The road is only a concern if you are going too fast. Most road hazards were clearly marked with orange road signs. The big one is at mile marker 9 as you approach the small lake, near the...

    Looking for a new ride.. What do you think??

    Looks a little Grandpa-ish to me. Need more pictures in order to decide. Not for me though. Looks like a Harley's fat sister.
