Ohhhhh jeeezus. Red left turn arrows in general piss me off. They just put one up here in HB at Warner & Edwards (Jill prolly knows the intersection). Previously there was a left turn arrow that went to a green light. It didn't go to a red arrow, but rather it'd just go to a plain "turn...

Hey, that's great! What did the attorney argue to get the case dismissed? Rancho

:dribble: Doin' our part to make American's look ignant & ****, I guess...... Rancho

Would that I could afford to put a GS in my garage. Someday...... :) Not only are BMW parts more expensive IME, but also aftermarket parts for BMWs are more expensive. I just got the car out of the local shop (dealer no more for me) after new brakes & suspension all the way around plus a...

Good for you!!!! :clapping: Can't speak as to the reliability of the BMW bikes, but gotta agree that the GS models are as cool a bike as BMW offers. I've loved 'em since they brought out the bumblebee colors back in <whenever>. Gorgeous bikes and able to do it all. Expensive to fix...

I gotta be missing something..... Geezer is "altered"? :bleh: Rancho

Woo hoo! I'm in! :clapping: :yahoo: :clapping: Got the Ohlins last go, now I get the forks done. Oh dear. Now what? Sure hope it's something I already have so I don't have to worry about another cash outlay! Though my b-day is in January, so maybe it's a birthday present. Happy...

Yeah, gotta agree about white. Too dull for my tastes. The red looks awesome, though. I've mulled doing something to the paint scheme on my '05, but it's not at the top of the list. Has anyone done paint as a DIY project? I've got to get an airbrush for a home improvement project and when...

Gotta fall under the non-political guidelines, but IMHO this probably happened because some genius thought it was a good way to save money, but the PR damage is far worse than any $$$ they save. My bet is that they rescind this idea right quick. Rancho

Stumbled on this the other night and thought it was pretty cool. :rolleyes: Rancho

There's a world of difference between "fulfillment of expectations" and making sure that if the worst case comes true those left behind are cared for. :glare: I was going to start a thread on this topic, but not so soon after our recent loss. Something along the lines of ATGATT not...

Ditto here on all counts. Wow! :clapping: Rancho

Very sorry for your loss as well. My wife and I went through that with the most extraordinary cat we've ever known last November and we still miss him. We were found by a new stray kitten a few months ago and added him to the household to get us back to three cats in the house--the max that we...

Hey, I still say awesome, but question myself. Probably just means we were around in the 80's. Regardless, congrats to dad & son both. My mother was pretty bent when my dad co-signed for my first bike. And came unglued when he co-signed for a replacement after I totalled #1. That should be...

All the more tragic. Rancho

Bah. Mexico & Europe are for *******. :rolleyes: Check out: https://www.advrider.com/forums/showthread.php?t=269251 Real men go to Angola. Long multi-post trip report there. Hats off to those guys. I'd be scared spitless to take on that kind of venture, but I don't have that kind of...

Never saw this thread originally, but a great idea. I wonder if instead of the three screws holding the plate to the sidestand "foot" it could be designed so that one could drill & tap the bottom of the sidestand and then red Loctite it to the sidestand. No screws visible and would take an Act...

NEPRT Alert! NEPRT Alert! Whoop whoop whoop! :D Rancho

The funny thing is that when I see those "bike down" pics all I can do is shake my head at the guy taking a pic of his bike on its side. Me? I'm getting her back onto the rubber ASAP! Maybe if I do it fast enough it'll be like it didn't happen..... :rolleyes: Rancho
