    Corbin All Day Seat Mod

    (Bust) Guess you're stupid expecting something you paid for to live up to expectations? Then why would anybody modify anything? Especially an FJR? Farkles be damned I say!

    So while I was away

    Buncha old *****.

    Corbin All Day Seat Mod

    Why is it that everyone thinks a $600+ seat(new that is) is such a great deal? I'm willing to concede that there is some skill and knowledge involved but, when you do a "Ride In" and watch the entire process take approximately 90 minutes, I'm sorry, but there is a bit of highway robbery going...

    California Lane Splitting Guidelines Now Being Developed--UPDATED 5/18

    Iggy, Since when is a law that solves a problem that didn't exist, a "good" law? Don't give me that crap about other States following suit. If you want the same privilege in other states, don't rely on California. With logic like that, you'll be taxed and regulated to death.

    Givi Trunk Relocation Plate

    Perhaps it would be easier to get a new pillion?

    California Lane Splitting Guidelines Now Being Developed--UPDATED 5/18

    Nice. We now, in its current form, have a law that isn't a law. Simply a suggestion to a bureaucracy to possibly come up with some guidelines to address a situation that isn't a problem. Sigh, Only in California. And BTW, I wasn't jerking your chain. I seriously don't know how I'm supposed to...

    California Lane Splitting Guidelines Now Being Developed--UPDATED 5/18

    Still leaves the ultimate question unanswered. How do I know the speed of the other traffic unless it is at a zero. And therefore, how do I know if I'm within the 15MPH limit. And FWIW 15MPH is a crawl. JSNS

    How to check R/R voltage on a Gen II?

    Then why is it that we run our accessories off the battery and not off the alternator.

    How to check R/R voltage on a Gen II?

    Maybe, to a certain degree. But every load you add to the system, i.e. aux lighting, heated gear etc. IS running off the battery. And now the job of the alternator is to keep the battery at a net loss of zero amps. AMPS not VOLTAGE The voltage from the alternator is higher, yes, and is, or at...

    What did you do to your FJR today?

    As usual, nothing. A thread from the other day got me thinking....perhaps I should check my air filter. After all, the last time I checked it was around 2012 or 40K miles ago. Hmmmm, it can probably wait a few more weeks.

    How to check R/R voltage on a Gen II?

    There comes a point, and we've passed it, of diminishing returns. Given this logic, why not get a kit with 00AWG and a 1000 amp breaker? The simple reason is that if for some strange reason your battery suddenly wants that many amps, you have much bigger problems and "Smoke and Fire" will be...

    Moving large rocks

    Seriously? It's Friday. The OP states that the rocks are a measly 200 lbs each and that he likes his testicles right where they are. And nobody makes a "Yeah, in your wife's purse joke"? What has become of this forum. Don Stanley to the white courtesy phone.

    Looking for a place to store my Spyder near Denver CO this summer

    Why fly when you can ride? It's only about 21 hours. You can pick up an SS1000 (several) while you're at it. JSNS

    A Visit to Daffodil Hill - Sort of! :)

    Thanks, but I prefer the Blue footed ones. You shoulda known that. Another excellent RR. We were just up in the Volcano area last week. So close, yet.... Mark

    A Quickie... Mental Health Day that is... ;)

    Really? A quickie with no ****ie pics. If I remember correctly, this is about the time of year you normally post them. JSNS.

    spinal injections

    Ray, It might be a little too late but have you given chiropractic any thought? A good chiropractor, though hard to find, is worth their weight in pain meds. I know because I have one. JSNS. Mark

    A Ride to the Valley of Death

    This ride report is like a ritious prick tease. Get on with it woman! BTW. Saw a desert 5 spot the last time I was in the Valley. About 10mm across and indeed, very elusive. But worth the search.

    Something is wrong with your math. I only see 140K on the ODO.

    We talking about the blue and green horse blanket? If so, I approve.
