Score! There are a few of us out there, no doubt about it. The last statistic I saw put the motorcycling population at about 2% of the general population, with women riders accounting for about 10% of riders. Minus the ladies who are just casual riders, scooter commuters, or...

That was a crack-up! I'm on the flip side of that. It has taken me years to convince my family (mom) that when I say I want motorcycle parts for Christmas, I don't mean make-up and jewelry. I think Mike figured he was pretty safe since I'm a motorcycle mechanic. Plus, about a year before the...

Thanks! It belonged to a buddy of mine, and he sold it shortly after our wedding. We were so lucky to get to use it! Plus, the owner drove me to the wedding - with long hair, and huge beard, and wearing a "F**k the ATF" T-shirt. Just to make sure nobody was taking anything too seriously...

That's what they all say! But it was a shining moment of creative craftiness, so I like to make sure he gets appropriate credit. Besides, how many women would be impressed by that type of thing? ;)

I'm waaay luckier than that - I have the greatest husband in the world! He's a wonderful man on all levels, but get this: He proposed to me with these FJRs. We'd had dinner at a nice restaurant near my house on the cliffs overlooking the Pacific. Afterwards, we took a little walk along the...

I see you're a local - If you want to get together with me & Mike sometime, we'd be happy to give you some tips. (And fill in some of those "Ask me if you want the whole story..." blanks!)

I have been having the same problem ever since I had my bike in to have the ticking fixed. (It has cost me more to repair all the damage they did to my bike than it would have cost me to just replace the valve guides myself.) I've had the same issues: The smell of burning coolant, but only...

My pleasure! I'm entertained that so many people are interested!

What can I say - I live for the ride. It was around the time that I acquired my Bionic Pelvis that it occured to me that life is short, and I want to ride as much as possible while I can. Next milestone: 2009 IBR

Yeah, what I really wanted to do this ride was a dual-sport. I had planned to go with the Tiger as long as I had been planning to do the ride - comfy enough to ride round-trip from SoCal, beefy enough to carry the necessary gear, nimble enough to handle the Dempster. And then the dollar signs...

I should really be paying closer attention! So that is me, Wendy, and my hubby Mike. We rode up to Inuvik in July & August 2005. It was an incredible ride, needless to say. Everything went flawlessly, except for the tires. We brought tons of mushroom plugs and CO2 cartiridges and the like...

Alrighty, for the hundreds of you who have lost sleep over this issue... I have your answer. Yes, it is possible to wire in a non-radar audio source into the radar hook-ups. The radar hook-up consists of two two-pin connectors. The first has two black (ground) wires going into one pin, and a...

I have the J&M MA-967 amp hooked up to my Zumo as my primary audio source. I want to add a second GPS, and when I'm done I want to Zumo to remain as my primary audio source, with the second GPS breaking in with routing instructions. It seems that it should be pretty straightforward to wire the...
