I used to pack and was into the "gun-play". If ya pull it, you will likely be forced into firing. Delivering slugs to an ***** in traffic just doesn't appeal to me. Doesn't sound justified from the little info from the story here. Some may think he had it coming by walking up to the vehicle...

I had a 98' V Max and before purchasing it, only had seen a glimpse of the cult following they have. Did a couple of owner inputs down @ Cypress for momma Yama in 99'(The production run was @ the 10 year mark @ this time?). Now in 09', they're finally coming out with it? WTF. I think they missed...

Want to run HID's, and was wondering if a headlight modulator will work with them. I'm thinking the modulator would be between the ballast and bulb, so the ballast would retain it's operating power. I think I've heard before it won't work. Also has anyone run a Comagination modulator? They have...

Like Bueller said, it was probably a combination of cold tires and some wetness still on the radius of the tire. I had a similar experience a couple of years ago. I am now paranoid about cold tires and getting anything on them in the A.M. I have modified my route slightly in the mornings so...

First thought that comes to mind is--Lame. Whatever works for some I guess.

I met this guy who lives near some ski resorts not to far from me. He had bought another ride for his yearly Canadian tours, a GFW (Goldwing), and let me say, I've never seen any one ride one of those like him in person, it was by no means ...slow. The only thing I've seen on the web comparable...

Rip fallen rider and prayers to his loved ones- From your centralvalleyriders Toe, someone wrote, "I can't shake the feelings that I have blood on my hands for without this forum Kyle would have never met up for that ride and still be here with Kendra and their families." Of course we want to...

Am going down to Diego to check out the Red Bull Air Races this weekend. Was wondering if anyone else from the board will be there? Searched and saw some of you had gone in Sept.

I've been K8'ed for awhile now and finally pulled the trigger. Love it. Only put a 100 miles on her this first day and taking it easy on the break in. Brutish smooth. Wondering how your 2k weekend went W.C., I'll check in on the "long haul" thread. See you @ .org.

I know most would not use the Bus as their first choice in LDR. Do you know if the Buell XB foot-peg mod will work on it? I see you have changed out your windscreen, did that push the "air bubble" up any from the stock screen? Wonder how the Heli-risers would work in conjunction with peg, seat...

Was curious how you felt after your "recon mission". With the riding position on your journey, was your neck, back, arms, etc excessively sore? I have been eyeing the new Bus since it came out and seeing your mod yours has sent me over the edge.

Sorry to hear your snatch has gone. :)

I changed mine @ around 6000 miles and it looked pretty bad. It's been on my to do list now @ 25k

At home on my top box, I riveted the metal strips that hold the sockets. Then when I open the top lid, there are all my 1/4, 3/8 and 1/2 drive tools in order. I have rows of metric on the right and SAE on the left. It's faster for me to complete something when I know exactly where to get it. And...

Love just about all the Dukes. The fit and finish is also awesome! I had thought about getting the 1098, but figured if I made a move, I could buy a busa and another KTM for about the same price.

Found out my brother-in-law died yesterday in a motorcycle accident. LINK Has people pretty shook up around here. He has two young children, who I feel for. Now my wife is freaking because I ride everyday whether it's on asphalt or dirt. Kind of has me re-evaluating the style in which I enjoy...

I will watch the the truck tires a little closer before passing on part of my journey, especially where it is a 2 lane freeway for close to ten miles. There are a lot of tractor-trailers on the roads I must take to get to work and I accelerate past them pretty vigilantly. The past couple of...

Was on my daily commute on the Feejer today, I have seen trucks loose the retreads, but witnessed my first big rig blow out. I've read others experiences, but I have a new respect for those tires when they go like the one I saw today. There was a rig in the #1 lane, a pick up in #2 (about even...

I had a 05' 1800N. Everytime I got on it after having the FJR it just seemed sloppy in every area from braking, throttle input and I always knew it was a tank. What made me eventually get rid of it was the ground clearance in the twistys-grinding in every corner. She was beautiful and sure did...

I have a brass magnet if ya need one :)
