    wacked another deer

    Man, you are shouldering the burden for all of us. Given the number of deer you've hit, the rest of us should be in the clear for the rest of the season! I'm glad you've not been injured...that's some scary stuff.

    ZUMO Replacement Screws, and Mounts

    What I'd like to know is how have you removed the small gold (metal) circlip that keeps the original screw from being removed from the mount? That sucker is tough to get at.

    Carl Sagan's Baloney Detection Kit

    Was. And I can't tell if you are trying to prove his point or not or just making a joke by making an ad hominem attack rather than to address his arguements. At any rate, I disagree with your characterization of him, and I think you proved one of his points by your response!

    BMW hand grip installation

    I've been reading and rereading your post and I'm not sure what you are saying. I don't know why you would install the grip on the G2 before installing the G2. I'm going to answer what I think you are asking, and if I'm off, either ignore me or clarify. First step in installing the G2...

    2008 FJR W/ PC III fixed the stall

    Spook, Remember you've got an '07. The guys with '08s are reporting a problem that we don't have--that the bike stalls coming off idle. There have been numerous accounts of this on this forum, and I've not seen any such reports for '06 or '07 models. Yamaha may have introduced a new problem...

    Hate them love bugs.

    You all just keep those little critters down your way. They sound delightful. I see you've let them spread into southern South Carolina--try to limit it to that.

    Throttlelock

    I like the Brakeaway. The brake lever mechanism to unlock it gives me an extra bit of comfort when my throttle is locked. However, I find that anytime I'm on a highway around here we are all going 15 mph over the speed limit with only a few car lengths between vehicles. Not exactly throttle...

    2wheelingdawg

    My thoughts are with Sean's family and friends. My condolences. It breaks my heart to think of a little girl losing her Daddy. And Karen will need to go through her grief while trying to explain the unexplainable to Bailey. Godspeed Sean.

    I hate hurricane weather!!!

    So we have earthquakes, tornados, and hurricanes. Let's add in -30 degree F temperatures with blinding snow. Where are you going to live? Pick your poison! Everywhere has something going against it at some level. Is there a perfect state weatherwise?

    Going in for a physical

    I think a lot of us die (men) because we don't go in for checkups, or we do and don't have competent doctors. (This is no comment on TWN's untimely passing.) Just do it. Remember, a prostate exam is nothing but that. Find out what your situation is and what you can do to extend your life. My...

    Anyone use the rear brake?

    Much has been said here about frt and rear brake use. After 43 years riding and 5 or so years road racing up to a national championship level, all I have to offer is, of course, I use both.

    Piece of metel which got stuck

    I'd guess probably not as what most of us have is a policy that protects against accidents and theft. But it is a matter of contract and that contract is your policy. Read it! Your protection will be defined there, and therein is your answer.

    2007; Adjusting The Handle Bars - Less Agressive Positon

    Dealer probably doesn't know how to move them back! Read up on the forum--loosen both bars at the same time--and it is a 5 minute job.

    Done everything short of the PCIII and still not satisfied

    Find a decent price and order the damn thing! The $20 you might save waiting for a GB isn't worth it. Put the dang thing on!
