    The Weather Report [NWS]

    Four years in Minot. Loved every minute of it. If it weren't for frostbite, tornados, mosquitos, and no curves, no trees...it would have been the pearl of the mid-west.

    Today is TWN's Birthday.......

    Although I never met Tim, I have enjoyed reading reports, stories and memories of a life well lived. Raising a glass of Gentleman Jack in his honor.

    What is the preferred boot of the FJR riders?

    Joe Rocket Meteors for long hauls or bad weather. Oakley desert boots for around town when I may be walking or hanging out. Could not let retirement kill such a great pair of boots.

    I'm late on posting due to a family medical issue but I would like to put up for grabs a Gerber Multi-tool. It is the large model with retractable pliers. No pics, it looks similar to https://www.amazon.com/Gerber-22-41638-Flick-Multi-Pliers-Needlenose/dp/B0013481NU/ref=pd_sim_sbs_sg_3 These...

    Five Years Gone By...

    As I sit and enjoy a glass of scotch while on terminal leave from the military, reading the newest post from the forum, this brings me back to why my four year enlistment ended 25 years later. I had given up on my dream job with PG County Police. It was not for the pay, the area, or the job...

    ABS not working, ABS light works okay, 2004 FJR

    Me too! Waiting to see if you have luck freeing the spool. I will try the heat and tap on the rear on Monday. Exercising the system and bleeding several times after test did not free it up. I know it was working mid-winter as I "tested" the system on the road during a quick ride. Hopefully...

    Harley's Plight

    They are into the image. Now, I'm going to put on my areostich, even though it is hot, uncomfortable and makes me look like a firefighter and roll to the Blue Ridge Fest tomorrow. Most of us buy into an image of some sort. Theirs just happens to be immitating pirates.

    Gen 1 ABS not working after storage

    The test worked as it should. There was a noticible difference in pulsing between the front and rear. The front was a hard pulse and the rear was a slight pulse and vibration. Is that normal?

    Gen 1 ABS not working after storage

    Hope to run the test tomorrow. I seem to have a bit of time since retiring from the Air Force. Ned to get this done before the job interviews start and it's back to commuting.
