    Change blindness

    Great video. Thanks for the link. I agree with you in the sense that I have read and heard in an MSF class, that even IF you make eye contact with a driver, they still may not see you. If a driver of a car checks for other cars, that's what they're going to do. Not being a car, may fall into...

    Fantastic ride to Izu pensiula yesterday

    Dave, I own a restaurant and truly enjoy food of most types. When I ride with my friends, a good food stop is my personal requirement. I adore Japanese food and you're killing me with your description. I'm stuck in Eastern Washington and good Asian food is very hard to come by. Thanks for...

    2009 2 million mile push !

    Rode 230 miles the other day for a burger that was supposed to be famous. It was not that great. The ride, however, was fabulous. Bob

    FJRF003.1: Ignition Switch

    I don't have my recall letter handy, but I am sure in the letter Yamaha states that you will only have one key. Bob

    Experience with this Fieldsheer jacket?

    Don't have that one, but have this one: https://www.ridersdiscount.com/street-gear/...s-men/71198.php I like it a lot. With the liner it's okay to about 60 degrees. Colder than that and I fire up my heated gear. Bob

    A clip from the comedy show, "Whose Line is it, anyway?" I laughed my *** off. Bob https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tQ_lXJTaT5g

    How are you getting from Ca to CA?

    Hey guys, I'm not going to be able to go this year, but I want to get in on the fun. I own a restaurant in Walla Walla, WA, lots of nice roads leading to and from. Anybody that shows up on an FJR on their way to or from CFR gets 50% off some of the best damn ribs you've ever had. Shoot me a...

    Do you think we'll see a crossplane crank

    Ya know, I was just thinking about whether the FJR needs more power, torque, grunt yesterday. I finally got out to ride after too much snow, and an abundance of cold. I finally decided that no, I don't need any more power. But I would love to have about 100lbs less weight. Probably not...

    Cee Bailey +2+2 with flip

    I just got mine and it is also +4t and +2w. Took it out for the first time yesterday and was just stunned at how quiet everything got when it was about 1/3 up. No turbulence at all. None on my helmet and none on the gloves. I'm 5'9" and I approved this message. Bob

    What do ya do about cold toes?

    Barb, I get the cold hands too. I've used the chemical warmers inside of mittens and they work well. But I finally splurged and got the Gerbing gloves to go with my jacket liner. Just a bit of heaven when riding in the cold with warm and toasty body parts. Bob ps - Gonna be in Campbell...

    Question

    Please have her take the MSF course. You could take it (again) with her. I'm not going to preach about safety, I'll let someone else do that. But have her take the class. My 16 year old got her driver's license today. I told her that now she "officially" is recognized as being able to...
