    Riding a Bit Over the Limit

    Taking advantage of a rabbit is fair play, goading the innocent into being your rabbit is not. Sooner or later Karma will remove any temporary advantage gained in anyway it can. Pretty much what Silver Penguin says as to your chances of continued uneventful rides with that person..

    What side of the lane do you ride in?

    I usually ride left side to give me a bit of reaction time for critters dashing out from the right. As on-coming vehicles near me I move to the right side then back left near centerline again once they've passed. This improves sightlines for any vehicles contemplating a pass as they approach me...

    Where purchase mercury?

    Any idea why I'm growing a third nipple? Rented any shiny U-Hauls lately ? Science teacher taught us how to make dimes out of pennies back in the day. :blink: I figured my third nipple was excess mojo from reading the FJRForum so often but you may be onto something..

    The first jet-powered flying man in the history of aviation

    Four years by the copyright. Wonder what he's got up his sleeve, er- shirt by now ?

    August sucks so far!

    Yes it did, for more than just one of us. Maybe Sept. will be better?

    The *******

    We're safe guys. If women didn't want that to happen, they'd have invented it themselves. :P

    Somebody tell me it's going to get easier..

    As the son's adventure begins, an era passes for you and the wife. A time of reflection and growth for sure, a jump start for the future none will forget. Sad yet proud for the old and heady times for the young. You'll know it was right when next you meet your new young man. Make plans now to...

    CCT Issue

    Here's hoping nobody wants to prove you wrong Howie - this thread could degrade real quick. :o

    Anyone Headed to Sturgis

    Went there by accident on the FJR in 2005. Was just passing through on the way home from WFO with another rider and happened to run right into bike week. Figured to make a pass through town just to see what was up and keep going, first exit turned out to be full of bike manufacturers giving...

    Which is your favorite season to ride in?

    Fall for sure. The KTM 400 EXC-R gets broken out every morning for dirt road exploring rather than just weekend hoolagism, the FJR covering afternoon/evening leaf rides to cider mills near and far. Riding gear transforms into a welcomed necessity from the required portable sauna. Only downside...

    He's Back! Duke returns from his 2 week trip!

    So Marcusorelius...did Duke get drunk in Portland too ? If he loves you as much as you love him, you might want to check under his tail for a likeness next time he's out of the saddlebag. :D That is cool though !

    FJR. Recognize.

    Looks like some rough miles on that A model, same rider later on with an AE. Bridgestone seems to realize that FJR owners are most likely to be potential customers in need tires. B)

    Aren't H-D bike covers mandantory when towing FJR's ? ;)

    WSP rolls cruiser during bike chase

    I would think anyone caught breaking the law in Washington on a motorcycle can kiss the chance of only getting a warning goodbye for quite a while. :blink: I, and another forum member were once pulled over by either the Washington or Idaho police ( right on the border, forget which it was )...

    Lazy fork oil change

    I knew this would turn into a guilt trip. <_< Now I feel like Zorlac's oil..

    Interesting site

    Lots of interesting info to be found there. For instance, it appears my mother-in-law is actually a female angler fish..

    Lazy fork oil change

    Leskid, I did it that way when I wanted to try out another oil wt. I had already previously done the tedious method but didn't like the front end feel of the new wt. oil I tried. Took me a few months to get around to the new, new wt., the newer old stuff already looked like yeech. Decided then...

    Looking forward to some very rich photos with the low ISO # film you'll be able to use. :P

    Where's your sweet spot

    My feejers sweet spot is just into blue light territory- 80-85 mph. Since the national speed is typically 70 (75 in a few spots, 65 in a few others) I've developed a severe case of rear view mirror paranoia. The cure is to travel at 90 so as not to be overtaken while looking far ahead with an...
