    What is the best way to transport my FJR from LA to Chicago?

    Thanks and have you ever shipped your bike in the past? I know I could get my company to do it but I would need to build a crate for it. I will check it out but I was really hoping for some real world examples from people who have already done it. I am sure I could also post the shipment on...

    What is the best way to transport my FJR from LA to Chicago?

    I am going to be doing a ride in September of this year and I would like to have the bike transported from Los Angeles to Chicago. I am going to want to have it shipped back from Atlanta to Los Angeles 30-days later in early October. This will allow me to maximize my time in the Eastern US and...

    Los Angeles/OC ride to Sedona, AZ for 4 days and 3 nights

    I bought the larger one bedroom about a week ago and would be happy to share my room. Both Chris and Boz are sharing the room that is connected to my one bedroom. I decided to upgrade because the studio's and the one bedrooms are the only rooms that share a connecting door. If you are interested...

    Nolan N103 Motorcycle Helmet Question

    While I have a small group of others who have this helmet I should ask another question. Have you had any issues with the sun shade drooping down when it is in the up position? I so how did you fix it? I am guessing there is a way to tighten it up somewhere. I might just called the mnfg on...

    Nolan N103 Motorcycle Helmet Question

    Here is an email I just received. "I have a N103. The inserts are optional. They reduce wind noise a little but some people don't like the pressure on their ears. I don't think you can use them with the n-com." Yes, I do have the Autocom and the speakers are mounted behind the padding and the...

    Nolan N103 Motorcycle Helmet Question

    I have what I feel is a very stupid question but something tells me someone here will know.. I have had my Nolan N103 Motorrad helmet for about 18 months now and have questions about ear inserts. Were these included for packaging, or is this something that I should have inserted into the helmet...

    Los Angeles/OC ride to Sedona, AZ for 4 days and 3 nights

    Cold weather is a concern but I am hoping the Farmers Almanac is correct. I do not mind riding in rain or snow but the black ice always makes me nervous. So far we have 3 people for sure and 2 more that are working out the details now. JANUARY 2011: temperature 48 ° (1 ° above avg.)...

    Los Angeles/OC ride to Sedona, AZ for 4 days and 3 nights

    I officially gave up on the Beemer at least for this year. Taking a bath of the sale of my bike and the purchase of the Beemer did not look good on paper once I wrote down all of the costs. I am going to use this year to put lots and lots of miles on the bike I already love. Thanks Simon.

    Modular/Flip up Helmet

    How does the MultiTec compare to the C3 in side by side tests? I love the MultiTec but mine is getting old and I might get another but the C3 is also in the running.

    My wife and I were just approved to take 30-days off in a row this year

    Thank you man and I can't tell you how excited I am to really hit the road for that amount of time. In my industry it is hard/impossible to this amount of time off.

    My wife and I were just approved to take 30-days off in a row this year

    Well we ran the numbers tonight and spoke with our families and shared our thoughts and it looks like we are going to request September off and ride the east coast. My wife and her family felt strongly we needed to spend time riding near them where we could stop for a few days and ride locally...

    My wife and I were just approved to take 30-days off in a row this year

    HOLY MOTHER OF CHRIST! This is the most detailed information for traveling abroad on a MC I have ever seen. I am going to start with the big issues and systematically decided how I will plan this ride starting with the possibility of taking my 2006 FJR vs renting one. One of the things that...

    My wife and I were just approved to take 30-days off in a row this year

    I really like the direction here. You guys are amazing resources and I would be very happy to ride a K1100LT. It would be the perfect bike and it is too bad we could not swap bikes if we both were to travel at the same time? How cool would that be to have you on my bike for 3-weeks while I was...
