    What's the Weather like where YOU are today?

    Yesterday it was in the 60s. Got to ride two days in a row. Today Blizzard Warning posted by NWS. 10" - 14" of new snow with 25 - 35 mph winds gusting to 55 mph. Yes, it's definitely Springtime in the Rockies

    I ordered the passenger peg extenders from MCL. So I don't want to buy any longer. Thanks for looking, though.

    What did you do to your FJR today?

    So, Saturday, as I posted above, I got PR4 GTs mounted. Sunday, I finally got enough people around to set the sag on the new fork springs and new Penske. Monday, I got a chance to put on a couple of hundred miles. What a difference. This has become one incredible bike. Straight line...

    Centennial, CO, Performance Cycle

    I went to Performance Cycle's new store south of Denver Saturday to have PR4 GT's mounted which I had previously purchased from them online. The counter guy immediately offers to help get the stuff, grabs a dolly, and walks out to the car with me. He loads the wheels and new tires and away we...

    WTB - Passenger Peg Extenders

    My wife had a knee operation last November. Today was the first time she's been out with me since then. Knees and hips were issues, we're hoping passenger peg extenders are the answer. If they aren't the answer, it looks as if we are going to cancel a 3-1/2 week trip at the end of May. It...

    Wee vs. Vee - From an FJR perspective

    I own an old Vee, 2003, with 81,000 miles on it. Great bike, super reliable, but with Anakee 3s on it even Nat'l. Forest roads with deep gravel are uncomfortable. I can't imagine what the outcome would be with deep sand or mud. 500 lbs. is a lot of motorcycle. That being said, if a certain...

    What did you do to your FJR today?

    Couldn't ride - 14 F and new snow on the ground. So did the next best thing. Pulled the wheels and went to Performance Cycle south of Denver. I got the new PR4 GTs that I bought last fall mounted. While I waited tried on some boots. Ended up buying some Alpinestars Gore-Tex boots. This...

    Bent Valves or No?

    I've bookmarked this topic for future reference.

    Bent Valves or No?

    The reason for the #4 valves to be slightly open at #1 tdc is cam overlap. Which allows for exhaust scavenging to take place during #4 exhaust stroke. Both the intake and the exhaust valves should be slightly open from a few degrees before the top of the exhaust stroke (where the intake valves...
