    What to get the FJR owner who has everything.......

    Apparently popular for high-powered gaming systems. I'm wondering if it might also have some application for a topcase mounted system. Gets awfully hot in AZ in July. :o

    Cortech Sport Tail Bag Mounting

    I like it! A simple idea well executed. :)

    Long Distance IBR Rider Mike Berlien Passed Away!

    I first met Mike at the 2004 NW Passage Rally. I had slipped my wallet in the thigh pocket of my 'Stich, failed to zip the thing closed, and managed to lose it during the odometer test ride. There I was at a rally with no driver's license, not credit cards and no cash. Mike, who I had never...

    Cee Bailey Seat

    My FJR came with a Cee Bailey when I bought it used in 2006. A significant improvement over stock and good looking, but not up to the duties of serious IBA work. I still use it occasionally. Depending on what you need, it's an option to consider.

    SaddleSore 1000 - San Francisco Bay Area start and end

    Roy...sometimes the anticipation is worst than the ride itself. Set aside your emotions and worries and develop a plan you intellectually think you can do. Make sure it's sound based on some of the criteria Jerry talked about. Then go ride it. Chances are you'll succeed. If you don't, I...

    Frankentank and tankbag

    A big contgratulations. Seems to provide most of the range of a dual tank setup without the lost of the passenger seating or the complexities of a taildragger. This has been one of my favorite threads this winter.

    RAM Mount to an N/Line

    What DaJuice said. Not the best picture, but you can see how I put my zumo up high and in my line of site here.

    Farkle inventory for insurance purposes

    What is the replacement cost of a Tanji fuel cell these days? :) :P :lol:

    GPS Advice

    I've been using a Zumo 550 since 2007 and feel it's been a great motorcycle GPS. It has it's shortcomings but is built to survive, has those wonderful hard buttons on the side, is an mp3 player and XM compatible. I've grown very accustom to it and nothing in the 600'665 series leads me to...

    earbud comparison help

    Not the cheapest, but maybe the best. Here's my recent experience with Al Schibi's plugs https://paulpeloquin.blogspot.com/2011/02/for-last-several-years-ive-been-using.html

    The planets and stars are back in alignment in my world.

    Welcome home, brother. As a reformed BMW owner I can tell you I still lust after the Bavarian machinery. On paper they look perfect. Living with them is something entirely different. The new whore looks gorgeous. ;)

    Running Multiple GPS Units

    And price. Haven't checked much lately, but a few months ago the 2820s where significantly more. If you can live without BT, the 2730 is a much better buy. Paul Peloquin Monmouth OR

    Problems getting the rotors off

    So I decided to do the smart thing and check the list before replacing the brake rotors. Everything I read sent shivers up my spine. In preparation I bought some propane and a new hex socket. Some Liquid Wrench doesn't hurt either. The day comes and my buddy talks me into trying the first...

    Howdy, Race Fans

    Since you seem to be one of the go to guys on the forum regarding racing, I'd say you made it back just in time, Randy. I'm looking forward to MotoGP as well; there's been so much movement in the off season I can't wait to see how it all starts shaking out. I'm especially interested if...

    MotoGP Losers!

    I'm with you on this one, Stephen. Unfortunately, it's typical today.

    The Fastest ZX-14

    Me neither, but the detail, work and money that went into this is incredible. Nice job, Stephen.
