    Recently Discovered Feature on my FJR

    While riding home from work today, coming around a corner, I took a quick look down at my cornering speed, and there was my mug reflecting in the speedo. I had that angled head look, just like the MotoGP on-boards. Clouds in the background and all. 15k and didn't notice until today. Now if I...

    Zumo 450/550 Owners

    My wife borrowed a co-workers GPS unit and loves it. She gave me the green light to pick one up and I have been eyeing the Zumo 450/550 to use on my FJR as well as for car use. How well does this unit work in the car? The one she borrowed was a Nuvi and found it easy to use. I figure if we...

    Ticker help in Jax. FL

    I bought my 06A new from Ron Turner over two years ago and the bike has been back 3 or 4 times for speedo, ecu bulletins and regular maintenance and I have never had any negative issues with them. Maybe just bad luck with the kid?

    S2000

    Picked up a 2003 Honda s2000 last weekend. What a blast. If you have the means, I would highly reccommend picking one up. Drives like my FJR, only it stands up by itself. 9k redline!!! Anyone out there have any experience with these? Any areas that may need special attention?

    Differential Lubricant

    You might want to check the Bin-O Facts thread under the FAQ's section (before too many darts come your way). I went with Mobil 1.

    F-15 One Wing Miracle Landing

    I'm not degrading the spirit of our fighting forces. As an F-15 maintainer, I know first hand the attitudes of Eagle drivers. There has not been an air-to-air "kill" since the first Gulf War. Our pilots are well trained, the best. The true spirit lies within the Marines and Soldiers. Those...

    Warranty Expiration

    Just got off the phone with D&H. He told me that he is not allowed to sell YES on a bike registered in FL. I could register the bike in another state (not FL or HI) and he could sell me the warranty for $389. He said that Yamaha will kick it back. FL dealers also HAVE to charge full retail...
