    SFO 2017 Home Safe

    I just walked in the door - 14 hours on the nose. I am sure I can do better there was a bit of lolly gagging. Jena and Turk - Wow! What a great time. Joe

    I am planning on spending Saturday at Barber. There is a premium tour package that visits the restoration area among other things that is given only on Friday and Saturday at 10:30. See you this weekend. I am also no longer camping. I will be consuming some hotel reward points.

    I Need Help/Direction on Highway Peg Installation Please

    There is a screw or 2 underneath the panel after you remove the 2 1/4 twist screws - remove them and the panel will simply flop open. Be careful you will notice the panel is retained by 2 spring clips and 2 retangular holed plastic extensions. Finesse is the key force does not apply to this...

    Trouble Free SS1K Ga-Ar

    Holy crap that is a 75 mph moving average. I thought that was only achievable with some sort of in-motion refueling system.

    2018 FJR Details Released

    Its my fault. I want blue and they haven't been able to get me away from my '06. Too bad the '06 is paid for and runs like a champ. Does the matte finish require different care? Different waxes ....?

    Credit/Identity Protection: Who Do You Use?

    I have read good things about Zander Insurance Identity Theft. They actively take a role not only in protection but in the aftermath of the repair.

    SPOT special code

    The email mentions that it is a unique code. It doesn't mean it is tied to my account or even my SPOT. I will be using it though. Sorry. At least you know the price others are getting - maybe that provides a bit of negotiating power.

    I just received an email with a SPOT discount code. $50 for the year includes basic tracking. Seems like a good deal. It also seems like it is too good to be true. it is a please come back to SPOT code. I had service initially then I shut it off. Thoughts?

    SFO 2017 - Official Thread

    I am getting excited for this. I have had an intern working with me for the past 8 weeks and had to miss the trip out west. I need a break and this cannot come soon enough. I have been collecting camping gear and am mentally packing and repacking the bike. Barber is a definite stop for me. Joe
