I can get mine torqued with a "Craftsman" 3/8 dr. torque wrench. Its tight but doable. These 4 bolts need to be exactly torqued to spec....overtorquing can easily cause damage to the forks!

JB your a nice guy...and I try to maintain a similar attitude when this has happened to me....its hard! When their rude like that I'll usually put a little "skeered" into them....cant help it. I'm gonna get myself or someone else hurt one of these days! Good job JB sounds to me like you did...

I'll agree with everything pointed towards ignition "switch failure" except you said the gages power up...that doesnt fit. My 2006 did the ignition switch failure thing in Wyoming...it was like turning a light switch off....right in the middle of the highway. For me there was no power to...

Well I'll have to suffer riding through ARK to get there, and back thru again to get home! There's some really good twisty ridin on this route....I've rode those roads many times in the past at the MSTA's FOF, it has been held in that area for several years. It's been moved to Cape G now...

Uh-oooh......a motorcycle ride....in Mowsurieee! Pencil me in big boy!

:lol: :lol: :lol: "A bong (also water pipe) is a filtration device generally used for smoking cannabis, tobacco, or other herbal substances" As if you didnt know!

Where is Fred W when you need him? PM Fred he knows everything!

I aint never come close.............I back off and ride her easy sometimes just to get 200 miles per tank..........and even then shes a blinking!

The best stuff in Arkansas is still a bit further north, up above Russelville. That may be more than you want for day rides. I'll be up above Russelville for a few days ridin, but it'll be the 16th - 19th.

Hey man what you got figured out on this CD ride? If I didnt have so much going already this summer I'd for sure be wanting to go too! Ifin you dont get it together for this summer, make it next summer and I'll be on board for sure!

Heres an opinion from the other end of spectrum. Comfort on the bike has much more to do with attitude and just wanting to be there. Your never gonna find a seat thats like your lazy boy at home, aint gonna happen. You cant sit in/on anything for more than several hours and not get...

Your a wimp Bill, who needs a stinkin bridge to cross a river? Come on be a man.......ride through the river!

Yeah I was and it was at least 97, heck it was 94 degrees at 9:30 AM in Clayton OK. If I was smarter I would have brought the FJR instead of a frekin dual sport. Hope the ride went well for you guys, stayed cool etc... Seems like if you can keep FJR speed up around 90 or 100 the heat is not...

I'm 6'3" and he past me when he was in the 9th grade. He used to be around 6'9" or so, havent measured in a while. Thats all he did was play basketball...year round! AAU teams and High School. I sprayed Miracle Grow on him while he slept when he was younger....... :lol: Gotch on the limes...

Well……..I don’t know what kind of fishing….so I called my son and said……BOY……what kind of fishing do you want to do in Alaska? He didn’t know anymore than I did. But...were looking, asking around a bit, and I showed him the photos and videos you guys posted and it’s got his poor wore out brain...

Man this is way off the motorcycle path....anyway. My son just graduated college (yipeee!) he wants to go fishing with me and his grandpa (my Dad) somewhere in Alaska. Does anyone here have an exceptional recommendation of a really good outfitter you either know or have used before. When you...

52 years old? Dang your an old guy! Thats alright one day I'll be old (like you). keep ridin dude! Happy B-Day Mark!

Ya think! Most states would put you in jail! Gotta love that liberalism, somebody's got to watch out for you idiots! Out there racing on public highways, you aught to be shot! :lol: Except for maybe a straight up drag race, the RIDER will make the difference in the twist and turns, not the...

Thats a bunch of bull (pun intended) You had no intention of cleaning up any crap before those poor motorcycle riders were forced to ride through that barn. I can see that devilish smirk on your face right now, cause I've seen it before! Great shots!

It dont work, luck or long tire life....I'm still waiting for sumpin else! Great report....... To the next group coming down or up to Arkansas....theres a few of us that ride this stuff all the time...it would be neat to maybe meet up, get one of them sandwiches posted earlier, ride a twisty...
