    Looking for shortcut from I-75 to I-85 around Atlanta

    the only paving that i am aware of is on 85 at hwy 316. shouldn't be to bad though. doing 675/285/85 takes you around the east side of Atlanta. Depending on the time of day,and what day of the week, traffic should be your only issue. on 129/441 probably not a bad ride, I have run 129 between...

    ear plug help

    try the shooting section at walmart for earplugs. also try the pharmacy area. I found some really soft ones with tapered ends, that are really comfortable to wear all day riding. If you wear them alot, your ear canal just gets sore. I work 3rd shift and wear them alot for sleeping. If you...

    intro to crash club

    the clown actually backed into the front nose of the bike head on, with his rear bumper. He knocked if of the center stand, bent the center stand, and i think pushed the bike into the curb, which i believe is what killed my left pipe. With the front end taking what i believe to be a fairly...

    intro to crash club

    Am i part of the club now? I didn't crash luckily, but my bike was run over in the parking lot. It had been sitting in the same spot for 5 days in a row, and some ******* :******: backed into it, knocking it off the center stand. Looks like pretty much every piece of plastic is going to...

    Riding from Ft. Myers to Key West, then up I-95

    plus if you decide to go through Atlanta, on the weekends half the interstate is shut down on 75/85 in downtown, due to repaving. It is a frigging nightmare on traffic, especially if you are watching the clock.

    Riding from Ft. Myers to Key West, then up I-95

    if you want to leave Ft. Myers, take 75 - I-10 - 295/95 around Jacksonville. Then 95 to 26. There is ALOT of construction on i-75 in ga. You can go to Ocala, fl and pick up us 301 to jacksonville, but you will make better time 75-10. 301 has a huge amount of truck traffic and MANY...

    motoGP vs. Superbike

    not saying AMA was nascar, i hate nascar racing, just trying to compare it to something i was familiar with. Both are supposed to be stock, production based vehicles. although the Ford and Chevys on the track don't look like nothing i have ever seen except for the ford logo. Thanks for the...

    motoGP vs. Superbike

    I think i get it now. MotoGp is like Formula 1 is for race cars, top of the game and designed purely for the track, and not in the states, and Superbike is like Nascar, even though it is called stock car, there is nothing on the car stock, even though say a gsxr1000 is being raced, it still...

    motoGP vs. Superbike

    Could somebody enlighten me a little on the bike racing divisions. What is MotoGP, and Superbike, and AMA. It all looks the same to me when i see it on TV. It would might be a little more fun to watch it if i understood the differences. I know they got something coming to Atlanta over Labor...

    '07 Trunk mount, does anybody have one or know where to get one??

    I can't believe Yam is still having problems with the mounting plate. I bought my bike in Aug. 07, and by Oct. i got a refund on the trunk, because the mounting plates were still not available. I went with the Givi like in the above pics. I don't think it is to hard to install. Had mine put...

    Exhaust Recommendations

    try https://www.fjr13.org/documents/70.html that is from the Aussie site. You can compare clips. Not the same as in person, but fun to listen to. I run the 2 brothers carbon fiber slip ons. Could not be more happier with the sound. Very deep and throaty, not shrill like most rockets sound...

    Cashiers BBQ Ride - Sunday, June 22

    I think Kiteman is actually a weatherman. How come he is the only one who turned back for home, and the rest of us rode through hail and temps in the 50's. I froze my tail off once I left yall at the BBQ joint. I hate it you had to work Kiteman, but come on did you have to do a rain dance on...
