    Take your FJR on a Roller Coaster... (road)

    I THINK I'M GONNA HURL!!!!! If this was in Chapel Hill, I'd be worried about the deer crossing just out of sight just past the top of each one of those hills. Maybe I'm just paranoid.

    First FJR Sighted

    I second the suggestion for taking the MSF basic rider course. It's excellent instruction and you get to use "pre-dropped" bikes complete with bent mirrors (if any), brake and clutch levers. They're little 200 and 250cc bikes, so they can't get too far away from you. Some might want to...

    SOLD GEN-2 Gas Tank and Front Fender on ebay

    I set the "Buy It Now" price pretty low. When the first bid is placed, the BIN option goes away. I just really need to clean out my workshop so I can walk around in there again. I've been going through all of the projects I've been meaning to get to and making the hard decisions.

    SOLD GEN-2 Gas Tank and Front Fender on ebay

    TAnk sale fell through on ebay. Fender sold for $0.99 - not quite what I was expecting, but at least I asked enough for the shipping charge. "Buy high, sell low" - that's my motto. I'll make up for it in volume. Here are a couple more items I have listed for sale on ebay: Front Fender...

    New Tom Tom Rider coming out

    Will it have traffic alerts? I bought the traffic antenna for my zumo 550 a couple years ago and love it.

    Removing Lid From Shad SH48 For Painting

    Would it be easier to drill out the rivets on the hinges rather than trying to remove the hinge pin? A pop rivet gun and rivets would run you about $25.

    $$ SOLD $$ Corbin Smuggler for Sale, Gen II, Cerrulean Silver will go back up on ebay tomorrow

    I have a Corbin Smuggler for Sale if anyone is interested. I'd like to get $500 shipped for it (US only). It started out life as flat black and painted by me using Colorite paint and clearcoat. It's not professional, but decent (from a distance). I'm sure it could be redone for a reasonable...

    N/Line Dash for FJR - Has it been discontinued?

    I think someone should petition Garauld to come up with something nice. From what I can see, the farklebar is just a chunk of metal with a bunch of Ram-mounts bolted to it: On the plus side, it could also probably used as a weapon or ***-toy for the more adventurous forum members.

    Al Jazeera Ruomored to be broadcasting World Superbike

    I heard that North Korea was also televising the World Superbike, but it's already been announced that Kim Jong-un has won it. He is after all the best motorcycle racer in the world.

    Dash bracket

    Can you post up a picture of yours on the bike? I can't figure it out and the description o nteh linked webpage says it mounts "behind the instrument cluster", which I can't figure out the utility of.

    The Left Side Story - inspirational to say the least

    So you spent several minutes to ask why this 5 minute video is so amazing, instead of just watching the first 20 - 30 seconds. You didn't "want to take the chance that it was dumb"? What exactly were the risks factors you were considering? What exactly made you so hesitant to "take the...

    Planning a Ride from Phoenix, AZ to Rochester, NY (Route 66) in May

    Cool - I should have been more observant as to your location. Sounds like an awesome ride. I've thought about a roundtrip ride to the Grand Canyon. Someday when I can get a couple weeks in a row off and permission from the real boss.

    Planning a Ride from Phoenix, AZ to Rochester, NY (Route 66) in May

    Being a Rochester native, I would recommend hitting Niagara Falls (including the Canadian side) and Letchworth State Park just south of Rochester. I assume you have family in Rochester and you're not just going for the lovely weather. I'd also recommend the garbage plate at Nick Tahou's. Are...

    So, in what country was this commercial shown? Seems like a place I need to visit!
