    Thanks for the advice! The first trunk I used was this one: JC Whitney The trunk itself was fine but the mount was real loose, which I believe lead to its final deployment. :unsure: But it did last for over a year even though it rattled and shaked the whole time. I really do like the...

    So about a month ago my JC Wittney $50 Cheapo Top Case fell off while riding in the Talladega National Forest. :blink: In fact it almost took out the poor rider that was behind me. :dribble: I decided this time I would splurge and buy a better quality Shad SH-40 Top Case. I have owned...

    Don, I wouldn't even try saving those tires. Don't worry they will make more :) . At 2.5k my rear TKC is pretty worn and my front D606 is starting to wear in weird places. Now if I could just figure out a way to ride in the dirt all the way to work and back, I would be set! :lol: By the...

    It was a really big challenge picking her up this time. Oh did I mentioned I was by myself :wacko: You really can't tell from the picture but the bike is stuck in a 4 foot deep culvert in which the front tire is stuck on a up hill and the back tire is resting on the down hill. Then to top if...

    The science of attention

    Great video. In my MSF classes I always bring up the fact that you should never trust a driver even though he or she may be looking directly at you. Not only are you non-threatening as stated above (good point!), that driver (that's about to pull out in front of you) may be expecting to see an...

    FJR has a New Friend

    The problem with the KTM Adventure is that the side stand is bolted directly to the engine case. :dribble: There has been numerous reports of cracked engine cases due to the stress from the side stand mount (like hitting something hard with the sidestand, etc). So I would maybe think twice...

    I don't know you can still see some rocks sticking out. :rolleyes: No seriously it looks in the picture like it's mostly wide than deep. What do you say Rick? However that's one hell of a long water crossing. :dribble:
