If only you had the V45......... Mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

Brad, Thanks for the responses. Count me in as your official Bug Juice Jockey when you do the Continental Divide. All I need now is a Big Red Pig, KTM 990 or a Yamaha S10. Of course, if you opt for Baja, you may not need a Bug Juice Jockey, but I'll be more than happy to lube your chain every...

Just talked to Betty at the Treasure Trail. She is out of Queens and Kings. I was able to book a room with two Doubles. It would appear this is filling up fast. (so sayeth the Kraut) Thanks Don

Mojolever. The one bar that does it all. G-G-G Google it.

Zzzzzzzzzzzzz But seriously. Great stuff Brad. That had to be a lot of work putting this RR together. Thanks for the effort and the tour. You don't have to say but if you wanted to mention what your total expenses were for this trip,,,,,,inquiring minds want to know. I imagine it will either...

Holy crap. I haven't seen a more pointless thread everrrrrrr. And that includes syn vs. conventional. 4 pages of this dribble! My hat is off to Hans. Well done.

Gotta admit, given the VMax comparison, there is no comparison. Still, as much as I love the looks of the VMAX, I just don't know what I would do with one. Except amass performance awards. Put some saddlebags on that Indian though and you may have something. YMMV

I've been commuting for close to 40 years. If it has gotten worse, it must have been gradual enough for me to adapt. Personally I haven't noticed any changes. Of course, YMMV

Where were you two months ago when I bought a Marc Parnes? Based on the pic alone it looks like you have a superior design. Here's hoping you sell a shitload of them. Mark

+1 Give the guy a break. He's knew to the FEEJ, new to The Forum and new to Fred W. Take that into consideration before you jump all over his ***.

Why are the bolts hollow? Easy, they're predrilled for the eventual use of an easy out. But seriously, the only other place I know of where hollow bolts are used is in light poles and other traffic structures. If I remember correctly it was so they would shear off when struck by a motor...

OP, If I know Ray, chances are he rebuilt your engine for you as well. He sometimes gets bored.JSNS

If our FJR Forum starts an Alaska header then we'd better photoshop a beat up Gen I in there. Gentle bump.

OP, According to Jake Wilson's website, he/they have "2" pr4 rear tires in stock

They've all heard about me. Beemerdons made sure of it. JSNS

Just spoke with Penny at the Kozy Motel. Booked and packed.

If Beemerdons says it, I believe it. Keep it coming Brad. I know how you are with a camera and suspect this could go on for dozens of pages. Fine by us. We'll be patient.

Awesome stuff. Keep it coming. Just two questions so far. Don had a caliper bolt with him? How many spare parts did he bring? That one is either from experience or luck. Just curious.

Why the negativity? Simple. You IBA folks like to sit on a motorcycle for what to everyone else in the world thinks is a stupidly long time. Fair enough, you like what you like. But for some reason you want the rest of us to stand up and applaud as though you accomplished something. You ride...

I think the fact that only 20 IBA riders have attempted to do a "ride of a lifetime" lends doubt to the claim of it being a "ride of a lifetime". Let's see, I get thirty days to do it, I theoretically already enjoy long boring rides, the only real costs are a set of tires, the fuel,an oil...
