I thought it was a place to drop the boys into ?

I really sorry to hear about your 'meet the asphalt' ride Wanderer but glad that you still have a sense of humor about it and didn't come out worse than you did. My take-away is that I am moving my phone into my jeans pocket - sounds like a good thing. Now if anything bad happens I have to...

Thanks to everyone for the suggestions :rolleyes: - I am in the process of making the calls (I want to get extra cheek pads at the same time). Its a done deal now :yahoo: I ordered from This Website BY FAR the least expensive place I could find. Free shipping like everyone else - free size...

My Quantum has just about seen its last mile :( The safety police will surely tell me I should have replaced it 150K miles ago. . . I have been looking at the new lineup of Arai (I really like their products) and the Corsair looks like a winner for me. However the best discounts I see on line...

lol - you sound like my dad. He was into boating and his idea of a long weekend with the family on the boat was to leave on Wednesday and come back on Tuesday. I just turned 28K on my '08. It will be 2 years old next month.

Prior to taking my recent cross country ride I purchased the Bohn Armor pants. I have ridden pretty much in jeans my whole riding life except for my 'rain pants' which are overpants I wear in the wet stuff or in below 40 degree temps. They are some sort of insulated, padded pants made up of the...

Unless you are planning on stopping in New London (Coast Guard Acadamy) or Mystic (Seaport / aquarium) your day 6 is one forgettable ride. 95 is a major pia. Going thru / near large cities like Boston / Providence / all of Fairfield County (SE CT) & of course NYC during commuting hours is...

Here is a link to a ride my son & I took several years ago to (parts of) the states highlighted - with pix Should be a great ride - enjoy the hell out of it! Adam & Jerry's Ride

That's the colors mine were

Dale here is my experience with that for an '08 https://www.fjrforum.com/forum//index.php?s...30&hl=ctfjr

You've got one fu'd anatomy

I'm waiting for the face shield wiper (besides the little wipe on my glove)

Ok I'll play too Sold in packs of 10

From my experience I wouldn't reccomend this :angry: Although the velcro they supply is pretty hefty, I was riding on RT 95 at 5 am when I crossed into NY and hit a pothole in the dark. The little bugger bounced off my tank then my leg and then onto 95 at 70 mph. I hesitated in deciding...

Sorry to hear about the drop Ultra. . . I had a similar misadventure (I dropped mine in my basement garage out of sheer stupidiy). It was only a few months old and the right saddle bag and Givi top case were scratched nicely. I took it to a local body shop I know (too well because of my kids)...

I'd be really surprised if the other ins co didn't just want to total it :( Good luck!

Just to add my $.02 my pix look like other posters'. fwiw I just finished completing my 'map' the past couple of weeks with CA OR & WA. 9000 miles in 13 days. Averaged just over 700/day with a couple of long ones (>800) - you know its the right seat when you not worrying about your *** at...

Oh man, does that mean I have to pack up again? Marcus - really sorry to hear about your misadventure but really glad no one seems to have been hurt. Hope you get that puppy looked over & back on the road pronto. I sure wouldn't want you to miss any of your pnw riding weather :)

I did the same thing several years ago on a GL1800. My son & I were riding the badlands in South Dakota when I entered a turn only to discover tar snakes everywhere. I managed to cleverly get maneuvered right onto one. The back end did a kick out instantly and the bike started to lowside. I also...
