    2006 Rescue - Project Log

    Put that thing together and take it out and ride the piss out of it. Hit redline a few times. I bet its fine. Change the oil next week.

    Bike transport from OR to AR

    I'll be helping a buddy move from Ventura, CA to Brookings, OR at the end of the month. He's flying me out there to drive the Uhaul pulling a trailer or the car that goes too. We're looking for me a way to get home. Anyone buying a bike out there and need transport? Also looking at shipping...

    FJR, faster than Eagle S%$@

    I've been projectile pooped on when passing a chicken truck.... I would be proud to have ever had a Bald Eagle 'mess' on me...

    Close Encounters of the Wrong Kind

    +1 I can remember trying to teach that skill to my kids when teaching them how to drive. They were always amazed when I would predict stupidness. I still think we'd be better off if everyone had to ride a motorcycle for at least a year before getting a license to operate a car.

    Chain driven FJR? WTF?

    From the looks of it, he hasn't used much of anything. :)

    Radiohowie is BACK after 2 months gone!

    Reading about Fooshie's get off made me wonder about Howie. Anybody in touch? Maybe I missed an update? I'm not good at PM's. Somebody needs to go check his pulse. Magic or Foo or someone near?

    Wrecks comes in threes?

    I would love to make a bike out of your and SacramentoMike's bike. If I can talk you both in to donating them to my non profit... *edit* I'm sorry. I'm babbling...

    Fall down go boom.... now with gory pics!

    Glad you and the bike are mostly OK. Just think if you hadn't got it slowed down like you did. "Cause of death was a piece of cardboard." Life is a delicate balance! Ride safe friends!

    Same Dollars

    I see new BMW's as refined and elegant examples of precision machinery and electronics. Treat them with care and they'll bring you joy... And the FJR as a hammer. Ride it hard. Pound roads, miles, BMW's... lol Change the oil on time is all it asks. It's like a sport touring KLR. I'll take...

    GEN III Engine Vibration

    You need to borrow a KLR or a XR650L for a short ride to re-calibrate yer vibration sensors? Just a suggestion....

    Putting in Gear Cold

    My old Concours liked to be started in gear, clutch pulled. A lot of my vintage bikes have sticky clutch plates. Oil film on perfectly smooth surfaces can sometimes glue that stuff together. As low mileage as your bike is, you might see what your dealer could do under warranty. As long as it...

    Beware of Incompetent Unethical Dealers

    I hate dealers. I think they're just trying to make money off of us...
