    Feather and Yuba River Canyons

    Very nice. Back roads are the best. Doesn't look much different than many places here in PA. just more pine trees. Not so much elevation though biggest hills we have are 2500 feet but similar roads.

    Hard wok has it's rewards. Passing zones much shorter on an FJR . Still enjoy that front wheel dancing in second without trying.

    EOM 2019 Discussion

    I'd vote Wellsboro but it's not going to make the cut. It's close to home for me and that's no fun road most of the good ones in that area. WV. and VA. have great roads.

    Drive shaft service

    Has anyone reported a u-joint failure? I'd leave the rear alone unless diff. is leaking lubed with gear oil. U-joint should be lubed at both ends, Must remove a small plastic cover and it slides right off of engine .

    Yamaha MW125 Tricity three-wheel scooter

    I like it didn't know YAM made smaller 3 wheeled scooter. Read many reviews about NIKEN and its a good idea. Good around town but heavy and lacking power. CVT belt drives work well and acceleration is better than most think. Engine is always in the sweet spot to get it moving. Tires aren't...

    Tariffs and Tires

    Doesn't matter where the tire is made. Tarifs are on several things the tire is made from also. Rubber compounds, cords, belts etc. How many things say assembled is US. but are made somewhere else. Read a new car sticker. Assembled in US. Engine in Japan, Trans somewhere else. Global market...

    Dupont Showroom Motorcycle Polish

    Looks like there is a new spray cleaner on the market. I've been using for a month or so and it works pretty good. 12 oz can $6 bucks and change at Walmart. Seems to work better after first use things don't stick on second cleaning. FYI I like it. no smell and removes bugs.
