    Air box modification question

    Just to throw a different angle on all this, just how much of the stock hp can you really get on the ground? It has been my experience so far, that if I make an attempt to seriously hammer the FJR below freeway speed it is capable of breaking loose the rear tire. Right now. I admit that I...

    Bad case of crabs.........

    Only in Texas. :( Which is why you don't drop match sticks in the toilet during your visit to a public facility. Rads crab would just pull you down and have his way with you. :o

    Cycle World

    I am finding that if I ride away from the metro area, about 50 or so miles out, the sport bike and cruiser traffic really start to thin out. Guess they are not comfortable enough for the long haul. :haha: Plenty of empty roads then. Except for the farmers. And the wild life. Damn deer...

    Who will be the first to own this bike?!

    Who will be first? Heck, maybe the guy who strapped a JATO bottle onto his Impala/VW.

    deer vs Motorcycle

    Looking at that vid and got to wondering whether the rider actually went down so examined it closely to find this frame. Heh heh heh. Looks like the rider at least could have stayed up, though not proof that he did. The camera did a windmill though.

    Go Buy a REAL Motorcycle!!!

    An excellent point. HD is building the bike that HDs core customers want. To do anything else would spell the end of HD in todays market, or the market for the last 30 years for that matter. I'm just glad we all get choices and I have the bike I choose. :cownoy:

    It does in fact work with Firefox. That explains many things.

    Throttle Spring

    Oops, sorry. I was refering to the modified throttle shown above. Doesn't it use a spring that is pulling the throttle open against the return spring? If so, wouldn't it pull the throttle open if the return spring were to (again unlikely) fail? Or did I just miss something important? :blink...

    Throttle Spring

    I realize it is unlikely, but what happens if the return spring surrenders? Wouldn't the throttle whack itself wide open? Hmmm. I think I'd stick with Rads advice on this one.

    Saddle Bags

    Nope, I'm not buyin that. I hit the quote button fair and square. Now, don't make me get mid-evil on ya. :2handed: :axerune: :dwarf: :dinamo: I'd have to walk or ride a horse the 1500 plus miles to SoCal just to have a silly argument with you about accessories and embelishments. Never...

    Saddle Bags

    The below is the original. Not to be confused with revisionist history as presented later in this thread. :rolf: :rolf: :rolf: :rolf: Yours. Oh wait You meant Who's the gay one? Not sure about that one. The guy who sold you those man bras is my first guess. :bleh:

    No worky Rad. Unless you intended for it to NOT play at all. In which case, I fell for it. <_<

    Saddle Bags

    Well, I have to admit RebelRider, it isn't as bad as I thought it would be. Prolly easy to touch up in case of future mishaps. Certainly better than the man bras. Sorry TWN, but those abominations are just ghey. and they don't even protect the lower half of the case from road debris. Maybe they...

    The Wave

    I try to wave at everything on two wheels with a motor. Unless I'm, you know paying attention to the cages and stuff around me and don't see the other bike till too late. Really more of a two fingered point at the other guys (or gals) front tire, kinda like scab there. Unless I know the other...
