+10! As you probably already know after seeing mine, I ride (the FJR) WAY more than I wash (the FJR). :P Sorry about the dirt road Sunday (at least it was hard-pack) but that used to be a poorly paved section there, and I wanted to get to that section with the series of sweepers going to...

Yah, but then you will grab the right side and twist and I'd be willing to bet the left hand will find that other grip. Yee haw! :D

Whaddaya mean gone wrong? Go back and look at that first post in light of what we all know now. :lol:

I'm doing internet research and need to ask you about this indicated speed aproaching the speed of light. Did you experience any time dialation effect and if so how much? After all a picture of your GPS and your assertion that it is true makes it legal evidence , right? <_< :lol:

If you have ever seen me ride you would know for sure, I am oblivious to what I look like. Which is just as well as I am probably happier that way, and the full helmet keeps children, pets, and women with weaker constitutions less frightened as well. If you're dressing for the audience, then by...

Groo, you know that the headlights at the track are all painted on and don't need tape. :mellow: :lol: :lol2: :lol2: :lol2: :lol2: :lol2:

Oh, departure from The Sportsman will be at exactly 9:15. To assure that Tejas may complete the ride on time. ;)

Or worse, you spend 15 or 20 years WISHING you were dead! :angry: BTDT. Happier single. :lol:

If nothing changes, we should be meeting at "The Sportsman" which is a Gas Station/Convience store/Bait and tackle shop in Sanger. See map below Meeting time is 9 AM tomorrow, Sunday May 7. Ride will be more or less a circuit of the perimeter of Ray Roberts with some back county roads in...

For a minute there, I thought you were possessed by Radiohowie. :blink:

This is the other thing (from a different thread). May I be so bold as to inquire about the Dr. visit?

Tejas, two things. What are your time contraints Sunday? (start - end) The other ? is about the Dr. visit over in the other thread. You know me, got the Streets and Trips out and considering possible routes. Might do a two loop thing with the second after lunch. or . . . . . I am willing to...

Pretty much every time I stop in any kind of traffic, if possible. Part of the "ride like they are out to get ya" approach that I embrace even more this time around. ;)

Rad wants some vitamin V so he can get the high beam turned on there on his scooter. :gah: Oh, and not in the Amarillo area so couldn't have been much help.

Or . .. .lets see here. Rad and jestal seem to be in accordance here and that accordance seems to agree with the directions on the box, hmmm I guess it would just be silly to take the advice of the director of transportation of a major university and a GM engineer and the manufacturer. Been...

Once again, thanks RTSR1/FJR. Your generosity is appreciated. Fortunatly I followed sparkys advice and Lowes had just the thing. The bins didn't make it clear about the bolt grade but I found the very last 8 mm X 40 mm 1.25 pitch bolt (cheese, I hope that is right) and stamped on it's head is a...

Thanks sparky, will check lowes (brand new one here in Weatherford) during lunch. Twisted off bolts at less than 17 ft/lbs? those would be some seriously cheap crap. Yeow.

Well, with the one exception, thanks to all for the help. Especially Skoot for the link to the part numbers and to RTSR1/FJR for the offer, though Florida is kinda far away for a bolt. For the record, I do in fact, own a factory manual that I purchased from the local Yamaha dealer. For the...

I FINALLY got around to putting the new suspenders on the bike last weekend. The Wilbers (shock and fork springs) are every thing I hoped for. At least insofar as I have been able to ride. When I went to remove the front axel pinch bolt I found it not there. Gone. I know it was there in Feb...

Marcos, good choice. My dad had that problem and it was related to high blood pressure. Go see the MD. Your daughters will thank you later. On a side note, still waiting for the chance to ride out west of the metroplex. IF you and SO are so inclined. Been pretty busy for a while but the...
