    Considering a move - Reno

    I work from home everyday. The only commute will be to the airport when I need to travel to the places I won't drive in my territory. The plan is to drive when I need to visit Sacramento, Redding, SF and San Jose and fly to LA and SD. Generally there aren't any restrictions on flying if you are...

    Considering a move - Reno

    I have to live in my territory - California / Nevada. Yes the PNW is a great location just not in the cards for me at this time.

    Considering a move - Reno

    Bug - it is really not a commute per say I need to travel into territory a couple of times a month. So it is not a daily commute. On of our current vehicles is a 4WD. Thanks for the response.  Joe

    Considering a move - Reno

    I am considering a move west. I am covering California and Nevada (everything except Vegas) in my job now. The person that had that territory is taking a new job. I have been asked to cover it until they find a replacement. I can throw my hat in the ring for that role. Being a Texan I am...

    Mysterious RAM X-Mount Failure

    I am impressed that the lightning connector held that securely. I use a Quad-Lock now. You have to put your phone in a special case that won't allow it to lie flat. They are expensive but performance is excellent.

    Sold - Zumo 550 - $250

    Lightly used Garmin Zumo 550. Original packaging. Car base and bike base. I swapped the lock on the base to a thumb screw - I took the unit off the bike at stops and that security wrench was sure to get lost - I removed it from the equation. Full US and Canada maps are loaded - used an SD card...

    Stiffy kit - is the boss

    All is right with the world. One of the items damaged in my sons fall was the smuggler trunk. There is a steel plate that is riveted across the bottom - the ends of the plate catch the tabs under the passenger seat. This is what holds the back of the Smuggler down - the front is held by the rear...

    I have the settlement from the insurance in hand. It was a fair deal. They did not total it.

    ear buds or in helmet bluetooth

    I bought some of these as well. They do come in a nice aluminum tube storage case - holds 3 buds. If you leave for a ride from lets say Austin to Birmingham and you leave them on your desk at home .....   DAMHIK Still haven't used them. I did move them to the glove box on the bike at least they...

    Stiffy kit - is the boss

    I took the parts off the bike today. right and left fender portions are cracked. Grab bar assembly is broken where it joins the bike both side. The tabs in the center plate above the tail light are all broken. The stiffy kit is a little tweaked - when I set it on the garage floor one leg lifts...

    Stiffy kit - is the boss

    The evening started out innocently enough. I have a storage area above my garage. Over the years original packaging from computers, printers ... you name it has been stored. The products that the packaging contained are long gone. A mountain of boxes remains. Every year at Christmas time I look...

    2020 FJR1300

    Those of you that are considering buying the Ultimate Edition aren't thinking this through. Yes by all means buy it. Buy it and take delivery of it in Europe. Spend a month or more touring Europe and then ship it home. Some of you are retired and this would be the ultimate bucket list trip. Go...

    SOLD

    You could always put a vinyl wrap on it. Cover it with some carbon fiber vinyl or maybe a gray / silver digital camo.

    F*** Garmin

    Thank you! I have a 550 - I keep looking at that GPS City sale thread thinking I should upgrade. Then I realize my 550 is just fine. Joe
