    Pillion Unhappy with Vibration Through Seat (2016)

    I'm gonna get one of those. There is a reason that some gals like harleys. ****, my 76 triumph had a buzz between 3k and 4k that made me want to hug the tank. Da Wolf

    It aint friday yet, but looking back thru the thread, it would appear that none of you guys know about the term "aspect ratio". We will discuss gearing on Monday.. Google away Da Wolf

    What's the Weather like where YOU are today?

    ****, I wish I could make it to I90. It's only 1.5 miles from my house. Hell, I wish I could make it the 2 blocks to a main road. I can't even get outta the driveway, and it's supposed to dump another 8 inches tonite.

    First Bike?

    Aahh, kawi 2 stroke triples. Way more ponies than the rest of the bike could handle. kinda like the yz 465s. Flexi flyers. Make sure you have it pionted where you wanted to go, twist it, and hold on. Hopefully there wasn't a corner up ahead that you needed to make it through.

    First Bike?

    My second bike was a 69 triumph 500, got it around 78 or so. Rode it mostly in the new mexico desert. I wasn't quite old enough to get my license yet. I kept that bike up until 2 years ago. It was parked under my neighbors deck for the past 20 years. We yarded it out one weekend and got it on...

    advice for obsolete leaking fuel line O ring

    jeeezzz, itsa fukin oring. since it's honda, i would venture a guess that its metric. metric orings go by the cross section and the ID or OD. Heres a chart. https://www.marcorubber.com/sizingchart-oring-common.htm looks like about a 1.5x10id to me, you will have to get out a measuring stick...

    Crunched by a Semi

    Washington has a "dead red" law that will let a motorcycle go thru a red lite if the triggers don't pick you up. The law does say that the lite needs to cycle 2 times without letting you go before you can go. REALLY!? If it ain't seeing you, it aint gonna cycle twice. I usually wait for...

    Distance Riding Improvements?

    I'm pretty lucky I guess. The gal that I take riding with me is a little tiny thing. 5'0", 110lbs. The bike doesn't even know she is there and she knows what she is doing as a pillion. She trusts me completely which is great as we regularly blast along at 80 plus. She doesn't get on or off until...

    I'm sick of Facebook. I'm deleting my account!

    Never had one, never gonna get one, my idea of facetime is having a beer with a buddy,,,,, face to face. My ol' lady gets pretty upset about some of the stuff that she sees there that folks have posted. I just tell her "Quit going there if it's depressing" Then again, her medical stuff doesn't...

    First Bike?

    Hopefully it will keep going for a long while. Of all the things my father taught me in my lifetime, I would have to say that teaching me to ride a bike and fix it yourself was about the most profound influence upon me I've ever had It opened up a whole new view of the world, one that happened...

    Victory Is No More

    I was wondering about Brammo as well. Ya gotta think they got sumthin up their sleeves. Mebbee it's an electric cruiser, with carbon fibre tidbits, a battery that can go 250 miles and a sound system that puts out a potato sound. A buddy of mine owns an early victory and I **** you not, if he is...
