    squid caused accident in front of me

    Today on my daily commute on the FJR I was coming home and saw this guy on a sportbike getting on the freeeway ahead. I really took notice of him because he was at least going 100 at the end of the on ramp, then began darting through cars. Within a couple of seconds a car he swerved around...

    Part fall-off at 300 miles

    +1 on my 06' also. One side came loose, so I went to tighten it and discovered only one nut was there. Added another nut and lock-tited them both. Same thing later on the other side. When I finally gained access to the mirror fastners inside the bodywork, this little guy was sitting in there

    1098 Biposto

    I guess Ducati may up the ante:from motorcycle daily--" By Dirck Edge If the Ducati 1098 is selling like hot cakes, and it is, would potential buyers be turned off by news that Ducati might build an even bigger v-twin next year? It is no secret that Ducati wants WSB rules changed to allow...

    Totaled the new bike!

    ......then he caught up to the guy @ an intersection and went to grab him as he was trying to escape out of the passenger door, but all he could do was get his leg. So, he's there pulling on the badguys leg--yank--yank---just like he was pullin' ours.

    Florida Speeding Ticket Rant

    Can totally relate to madmike here, not to the part about sportbikers being "the true miscreants" though. On my daily ride of 70 miles to and from work I regularly come across the CHP in marked and unmarked cars. In my experience of this commute for years, it has become obvious, simply don't do...

    when to replace the fork oil

    Change it now! Here's what (click-->) mine looked like at 6K. You can see metal floating around in it. I have almost 15K now and will be doing it again very soon.

    April 8th Lake Isabella

    If you're going DC you will be doing more miles by going to the Shell station, not that that is a bad thing! From here the gas station is about 100 miles. See you all there!

    April 8th Lake Isabella

    Thanks TWN, found it on Shell's site:31428 RIDGE ROUTE,CASTAIC, CA 91384, if anyone wanted it. DocDan, If you were commited to the ride, we could meet the group @ the lake by heading north on 395 and cutting over on the 178. If not, I'm going from my house in Hesperia and cutting across the 18...

    April 8th Lake Isabella

    I'd like to go on this ride with you guys. Was wondering if anyone from the I.E. area was going also and if they were going north on 395? I'll check back in a couple of hours. If not, I will most likely meet up with main group @ the Castaic Shell station. Jdog, I was wondering if you had the...

    side bag shaven

    -Click to link- <---That's who I purchased from and couldn't be happier with their product. If ya search "spray bedliner", you'll see a lot of stuff. Actually they do have this stuff in different colors including blue. They even have a clear. You can leave the rubber crumb out of the mix and...

    side bag shaven

    Since repainting the side bags, they've been scuffed from the handle bars on the kids bikes and what not. I ordered a spray on bedliner kit off e-bay to do the bed of my truck and figured what the hell, I'll spray the side bags of the FJR also. I don't need to worry about scuff marks anymore and...

    My last day of riding in 06'

    yes it was them, but I don't type the names of 1% "clubs" in my postings. I regularly see them and 3 other "clubs" in my area. A search of the net with a certain keyword can bring up a post where you have mentioned them.

    Death Valley February 16-18

    With me doing the "Death Valley in a Day" thing, I'll probably just say "hello" to you all and try to put some faces to screen names in Ridgecrest. I'll fill up, skip lunch there and head to Dante's View. Doing that, if I leave Ridgecrest @ around noon, I get to Dantes around 3:00, spend 1/2...

    Helibars

    I have 'em and would buy 'em again. I am more comfortable, I have a 72" reach and haven't bought the risers yet, probably will this spring when I do some long distance hauls (1k days). The front end felt "different" when I put them on, but a lot of it was my front tire wear and feathering...
