    Sad, very sad. May his family find a measure of peace and comfort as quickly as possible. It is a measure of a man's life to be remembered fondly, by so many, upon his passing.

    Headlight modulators

    The Kisantech modulators work great! Particularily important in helping preventing left turns in front of you in city traffic. I run mine on all the time on the highways to keep folks from merging over into my lane (I usually ride in the left lane for safeties sake)! It definitely catches their...

    Temper Control

    Donaldb, I have had the misfortune (or good fortune, depending how you look at it) of being rearended at traffic light 3-4 times in my life, as well as being T-boned by red light runners a couple of times. Luckily, I was always in a cage at the time(typically an SUV), always happened while I...

    Battery Life

    Coach, I had an '05 that had the battery last less than a year. I tested it with an electronic battery diagnostic machine and it pointed out as having a bad cell, as it wouldn't take a charge. This, in spite of having installed battery tenders on all of my bikes, ATV's and snowmobiles...

    Riding Gear

    Bug, Consider having them sew in an extended arm gusset, as well as a back ellipse panel. I had simular problems, particularily while leaning forward. It gets worse when you layer fleece underneath. Go a little looser and it will work like a champ! They are great people to do business with...

    Out of this world plastic surgery

    Hey Silver, Have you ever tried to do chin ups at a playground with an FJR glued to your butt? I think that'll probably do the trick! :mad: :weight: :yahoo:

    FASTEST INDIAN @ Carmike Cinima

    Hey guys, Make sure you bring the wives (or SO's) to this movie. It is definitely not strictly a bike enthusiast's film. Women (no offense intended) will love it as much as you! :yahoo: It's a great "feel good" film!

    Most common injury

    OK, everybody,.......... the title of this thread was " MOST COMMON INJURY", ........... right? Then I would have to argue unequivocally, that in practically all bike accidents, particularly those self-inflicted ones, you can count on someone coming home with a ...

    Out of this world plastic surgery

    This very real place is performing some unbelievable custom surgery, on demand, for people who have got to have something bizarre in their makeup. Follow the tabs for custom scalp cooling options, built in antennas, web fingers, strange sexual mods, etc.... It keeps getting weirder every...

    Chrome/silver face shield?

    If you go too dark with the shield you might have problems seeing LCD gauges, indicator lights, your gps screen(this is very common). Don't overdue it, the more "mirrored" the shield the darker the tinting behind it. I once had a pair of mirrored prescription sunglasses made. I didn't...

    What shield for me?

    Anyone getting a new shield as one of their farkles should take into consideration their new sitting position on the bike AFTER putting on a set of risers. A new screen that works fine in keeping wind blast/noise down in the stock sitting position with the factory bar position, may be...

    Chrome/silver face shield?

    Or........ you can try to add one of these to your clear visor to have the best of both worlds. They are removable, repositionable, and can be trimmed to fit. They work great, particularily, if you find yourself driving into the early morning or late afternoon sun. :agent...

    FJR vs Vstrom

    OK TWN, point taken, JP, In a nutshell, if you are looking for an all purpose bike that adapts to crappy road surfaces fairly well, (though not a true off road machine) consider the VStrom. You will sit more upright than an FJR, have a bit more all round visability and save a few dollars in...

    potential rad hose damage

    Just another reason not to put off carrying a small role of duct tape in your tool bag! Thanks for the heads up, Jestal! :)
