    Harbor Freight sale

    Ok, since I had designated the wheel cleaning stand as "possibly a POS", I thought I'd give it a fair trial. The stand: First test victim: God I love this bike. First victim front wheel: That went fairly well, not needed for the back wheel but definitely usable on the front. Actually...

    Harbor Freight sale

    Exactly. I don't like carrying a nice meter in the toolkit. To get the freebie, you have to spend at least $10. Hence the purchase of the possibly POS wheel cleaning stand. I'll probably never use either one. But, like I said, it was something to do. What I'd really like is the bike lift, but...

    Harbor Freight sale

    January 10-12. I found some coupons while reading a Rider magazine in the Dentist's office. I congratulated the receptionist on their choice of reading material and she told me to take it home. Visited my local HF store, and picked up a $21 wheel cleaning stand and a free DMM. Anyway, it was...

    Welcome to the Midwest

    I live just south of Indy and was watching a local Indy station during the weather event yesterday. I know they've been able to detect rotation for a while now, but they weren't able to tell you whether the rotation was aloft or on the ground. They showed a new tool (at least to me) that was...

    If there was one album, to make everyone here listen to, what would it be?

    Moto 3 in Japan

    I'm getting addicted to Moto 3. The race in Japan was unbelievable. If you haven't watched yet, don't miss it. Should be a wild finish in Valencia.

    Sena F/W 4.3 beta

    Great to have speed dial feature, I'm always having trouble being understood by the voice dial feature. I assume to share music, the source of the music would have to be connected to the sena via bluetooth, instead of the audio jack.

    What did you do to your FJR today?

    Cleaned and greased the windshield drive unit rails, found the outside rails had never been greased. The shuddering and screeching sounds were getting annoying, even after disabling the auto retract feature. Thanks to kaitsdad's excellent gen2 tutorial, it was much easier than expected. I'll be...

    2013 Iron Butt Rally - The Inside View

    Isn't 101stpathfinder riding in this thing? Maybe I'm mistaken. I'm not sure of his real name, anyone know how he's doing if he is?

    What is the preferred boot of the FJR riders?

    I went with Tour Master Solution WP 2.0 Road Boot since they're cheap, like me, and come in wide sizes. So far they're comfortable. I wear a nylon rain boot over them when riding in rain, so not sure if they're waterproof.
