    FJRForum Official 2015 Iron Butt Rally Tracking/Analysis thread

    That was me in PA. Not having the benefit of knowing all the bonii at the time, and seeing as the track had you on a dead-on path to the Harley Davidson factory in York, PA, I could have sworn that was your target. Instead, it was back to some residential area to get a picture of a police car...

    Did that to Iggy one year. The 'WTF' look on his face was priceless. Also ran into Joel Rappoport one year (by coincidence, not by SPOT following) and he seemed befuddled...almost as if there was no one else on the earth that had any idea the rally was going on.

    Zoomed right over that one....sorry. But we are still assuming it's a minimum, right?

    Just curious...when it says "“To be a finisher of the 2015 Iron Butt Rally, a rider must visit 50 US national parks in 25 states before 10 AM (MDT), July 10, 2015.”, they wouldn't be so cruel as to mean that absolutely literally, would they? Or did they somewhere say that was a minimum?

    There is a new group of folks that have met with the county commissioner to discuss potential terms of taking over the operation of the track. Additional info https://www.roadracingworld.com/news/tooele-county-talking-to-prospective-operators-for-miller-motorsports-park/

    2015 MotoGP

    I love having the Video Pass. No commercials, additional coverage (practice, press sessions, etc) and watch without the fear of having it pre-empted by soccer or anything else.

    2015 MotoGP

    If you don't have the video pass for MotoGP, you're missing out. QP2 was insane. MM had a warning light pop up on his dash. He parked his bike on the hot track, jumped over the wall, sprinted back to the pit, jumped on his backup bike, got out and passed the start finish line just seconds...

    The Thirty Thousand Dollar Yamaha

    I think your local dealer is smoking something. The R1Ms in the US aren't being gobbled up by various privateer racing teams around the world. In fact, the Graves Yamaha team (the Factory Yamaha team in the US) uses the regular R1s because of the MotoAmerica rule limitations. I'm sure there...

    2013 Leftover Price

    Do you like the color of the '13 better than the '14? If so, jump on it. You might be able to save a few hundred $ if you don't mind driving a couple of hours. If you're OK with the red on the '14, Billerica Motorsports has a '14 for about the same price and they're pretty close to you.

    Moto America

    My god, I hope it isn't the 'same as it ever was'. The last couple years have been an absolute mess. Regarding TV coverage, it's not good news, but, I'm being optimistic. As of now, the TV coverage will be a tape delay show and it will be highlights rather than showing the full races. Could...

    2015 MotoGP

    Regarding your comments on why Pedrobot is still there, I'm one of the strange ones that thinks he has pretty much been doing what Honda has wanted him to do for the last couple of years - be a contender if rider #1 isn't there and, if rider #1 is there, get as close to the front as possible to...

    2015 MotoGP

    For the last 4 laps, he wasn't able to lap fast enough to make up all of the time he lost at the beginning. Laps 14-19, his times were faster than the P1 rider for that lap. With 4 laps left, he was still 2.6 seconds from the lead group and, even at his best, he wasn't making up more than .6...

    Possibly Wanted - Gen 1 (2004) rt mirror, rt lower, saddlebag.

    I know exactly what he was saying. I just didn't understand why he felt the need to respond if he had nothing to add, let alone respond with a wise *** comment. I've been around plenty long and realize that what I'm looking for isn't common. If it's out there, fine. If it's not, then I'll...

    Thanks for the helpful reply. What's wrong with being up front with what I'm looking for?

    Possibly Wanted - Gen 1 (2004) rt mirror, rt lower, saddlebag.

    Got a few very slight scratches that I would like to address. Considering replacing or repainting (might not even need painting...just redo the clear coat). PM me with what you have and how much. They would have to be in excellent shape for me to consider. Thanks!!!
