    Cherohala And Deals Gap

    Hope so...... I've gotten pics on my cruiser from them that are really cool. I think they had 4 guys shooting while we were there, but the main place with the sign we were always backed up pretty bad. Not so funny story on one of our passes. We get behind a Lincold Towncar from Ohio and he is...

    Cherohala And Deals Gap

    Sorry, only pictures I have are from the parties for the Southern Cruisers State Rally I was at and they are alittle "raw". :) I was having so much fun riding, I really didn't stop much for pictures...... you can only take so many pics of the sign at the Dragon. I'd love to come down, but I...

    Cherohala And Deals Gap

    Got my first real ST weekend in last week and had an absolute ball with the Effy running the Cherohal Skyway and Deals Gap. 987 miles, one completely fragged front tire and some sore sore wrists from white knuckling the darn around a few corners chasing after my buddies Duc. Things I've...

    Ohio Fall Ramble- Oct 15

    You kids have fun....... I know the spring ride was an absolute blast! Unfortunately, I'll be riding the twisties in Southern Florida that weekend..... or sitting on the beach having a beer. Hopefully, some of the other guys from Cincy will come up for the fun even though we (evidentally)...

    Tank Heat Fix

    I was thinking along the same lines while I was under the hood putting Moko's on over the weekend. It looks like what air does get to the motor is run through the radiator first and there is very little "fresh" air making it to the motor. I was wondering if a shopvac nozzle and hose could be...

    Metzler 880

    FWIW, Not sure on the FJR, but on my cruiser the 880's stick great in the rain.... best rubber I've tried. I've never heard anything but positive comments on them until I read this.

    Use The B Rating On A Z6?

    Thanks guys! I'll order the B version. I'm alittle concerned I need to buy the matching pair. I was intending to keep the z4 on the front and use the z6 in back to maintain a similar type tire sticktion..... Not a good idea? As for the Metz concerns, I've read them and am concerned, but...

    Use The B Rating On A Z6?

    Guys, for the roadtec Z6 tire, do you use the "B" rated tire or the standard? And I wonder why the pattern is more like the ME880 than the Z4......... Thanks for the help Scooter

    Banned From Ezboard

    You got that right........ haven't met one yet (who was not stoned) who thought it was funny. I, on the other hand, could read the quotes for hours and never get bored..... let alone watch the movie! Tim the Shrubber

    Fjr1300 Euro 2006

    You do know that BMW's are the LEAST expensive of the three in Europe?.... The Beemer guys over here just get the privelege of paying the markup so they can keep the exclusivity thing going. ;)

    Cruisers Vs Sport Tourers

    LOL......... it's not nittpicking at all. There is a longstanding tradition of ribbing between certain segments of riders and Valks/Interstates, Magna's, Ventures, Vmaxes, those funky BMW and others not lucky enough to have a single pin v-twin as not "really" cruisers. We only say these...

    Cruisers Vs Sport Tourers

    Not to get toooooooooo pissy, but a Valk isn't a cruiser........ :D I knew the way this post was going to head from the opening subject line....... riders who haven't experienced the other types of riding often have some pretty funny misconceptions about other types of riding. Goes both...

    Other Forum Life...

    I like Delphi's layout and if you pay for the advanced level you can avoid the pop ups, but there's not alot of activity on the FJR forum. Now is you want to hit the R* or Vulcan forums, there's TONS of activity. I try to hit them all....... never know when you'll pick up a usefull tidbit of...

    The Dragon Or Cherohala?

    Well if you're on the effy, I'd take Cherohala if you're on the R1, I think I'd go the Dragon. Really you probably can get both in pretty easily........ Cherohala can be run in about an hour or so up and back...... Scooter
