Steve, that would be fine with me. I have never been in those areas and was basing part of the route on Readers Digest's book of Scenic Routes. Petey, Zzzip and myself are going to arrive in Bonne Terre sometime Weds. afternoon and leave Thurs. AM. If I remember correctly you typically come down...

Man, how fortunate to have been wearing the protective gear. Were he to have been in squidly attire the outcome would have been horrendous. Heal fast and ride soon. And quit abusing those KLR's. They aren't that tough. Chester

Its too bad he was getting so wet. His mom told him to take his galoshes and umbrella but would he listen? Noooo! Good luck and be safe. Chester

Thanks for the help. I am trying to get a route laid out from Smittys to the EOM. A few of us guys are going to meet at his place and then take the hopefully scenic backroads to the EOM. I, for whatever reason, hate Outlook. I guess its because they try to ram it down your throat. Chester

I am trying to send an S & T map to some of our guys and am not having much luck. It appears that from S & T you "Send to - as picture" This takes you to Outlook which should be fine but I have not activated Outlook for my e-mail service and it just sits there. Any hints so that I can send these...

Wise choice. Make it Red and I got one this past Saturday. I also have a green 02 with 31,000 miles and will keep it for a while. If I could have but one bike it would be the KLR. As for the fascination, does nothing great but everything well. For a commuter it does a great job and on the...

Damn you. Damn you all. I will be at the EOM that weekend otherwise I would have ridden my KLR out and joined you guys. Are you sure that with the time zone differences that your weekend isn't actually the following weekend. I have an 02 and just picked up an 08 this past Saturday. I really...

As the owner of an 02 KLR and since Saturday now also the ower of an 08 KLR I all I can say is "WOW." The ultimate Urban Assault vehicle. The way the $5,000 KLR left that red megabuck sports car was great. However, as an officail member of the Geezers of America, this guy is not going to have...

I think that his getting 3 years is great but I guess that I didn't realize that speeding could cost that much time. Must have been all kinds of other charges added on I'm sure. It is absolutely amazing that he did not wreck or hit someone. Maneuverabiltiy gets pretty hard at that speed.

All of the ads like this are stupid. There was a commecial on TV 10 or so years ago about Pontiacs and some guy pulls into a service station behind the Pontac and basically says "man how fast were you going on those curves, I couldn't keep up with you." Now how stupid is that. There are no...

If the timing is right, I might be in. I am going to try to meet some KLR guys in upper NY in mid-October. However, I am going to have to have a Pinko Commie bike at one of the two rides if I attend both for I could not go home and get the other. I'll stay tuned for future developments...

Mine all lined up but I need to adjust the mount itself for I have an ever so slight left to right twist. Chester

Check in tomorrows mail. Too late for today. Thanks for all of your efforts. Chester

Kathy, I said as we boarded a Greyhound in Pittsburgh Michigan seems like a dream to me now It took me four days to hitchhike from Saginaw I've gone to look for America Simon and Garfunkel What the hell do you know about that song. You weren't even born yet. Excellent choice however. One of...

Just park the bikes under some of those megavolt power lines and that will keep your batteries charged and your hair standing on end. :clapping: I have similar problems down at my farm. I have a generator, ATV, KTM, small John Deere, and a large John Deere that don't get used all the time. I...

Nice write up. Another thing to add, or I guess use is more appropriate, is the vacuum storage bags like you see on TV. I was down in AR last Fall or Spring, and "Petey" was there on his FZ-1. He had practically no storage space at all. Had everything stuffed in those bags which really decreased...

Are you Minneapolis guys OK. Bridge leads to Univ. Of Minnesota. What about you Radman? Good luck to all of you. Chester

Son of a *****. You must have been flagellating the hell out of that bike. Well now that I have used up my annual supply of adrenaline I think that I'll get on my FJR and ride it down to the dealership and trade it for a Honda Dream 90. Something more akin to my skill level before I try to...

See my above post for the link to the KLR website. Lots of info there and they have one section dedicated to the 08 KLR. Now do keep in mind that these guys are somewhat biased but they will still be pretty fair. It really comes down to what do you want? I have both and really think the two are...
