That coupon code I mentioned a couple of posts ago is M320-PIRELLITEN. Good until 11:59 pm 10/10/10. No affiliation, etc. Just passin' it on.

motorcycleusa.com has 40% off Pirelli this week. Their last newsletter also had a coupon code to enter for another 10% off, but I deleted that message. Sorry. I was thinking about trying the Angel ST's next time...

Congrats, Jim, on inventing synthetic blend. And on this score, we have finally achieved FJR rider consensus. It's a nonissue. I might, however, be a little torqued if they charged me for something I didn't ask them to do and that didn't need to be done.

I quite watching Indy Cars when CART died. I think I've watched one IRL race since that series was created. I did read, though, that there's a good chance that was the last Indy race at Homestead. Not only did the track lose money on the race, but the IRL (or whatever they're called now) told...

BMW's WSBK team is now set with Corser and Haslam. That sounds like an awesome combo. I like the idea of Toseland to Ten Kate. I don't know why they'd keep Neukirchner.

Dang, those things look like a kick. I'm sure there's a little dual sport somewhere in my future. Congrats! Sigh... I learned to ride there. I sorely miss it.

+1 on Fred and Texan here. Farkles may attract a buyer, but they rarely add to the price. It also kind of depends on the farkle. If those driving lights were already wired, there's a good chance I'd leave them on. Since they're not, I'd sell them separately. The heat shields? Those are pretty...

That's a nice deal for a new one. :) I guess it depends on the shipping cost. Keep an eye on eBay. I snagged a salvage yard headlight unit for my son's baby ninja for less than 1/4 the cost of a new one. Looks and works fine. Or try a site like https://www.mrcycleparts.com/ or...

Not probably. That's exactly why they canceled it. They underwrote a big chunk of that event and decided their money was better spent elsewhere or not spent at all. Having been to one Honda Hoot, my personal taste goes in the other direction anyway. For me, those mega rallies offer more hassle...

Very cool -- both the ride and the wraps. How does it adhere? Is it stretched around the inside and held in place when you close the bags?

I actually went to the dealer to test ride an ST1300 and stumbled across my FJR while I was there. I think that Honda is a solid bike and you'll like it. Enjoy the ride. Of course, we all think we'll see you again later. ;)

That's great news about Edwards! I've been hoping he could hang in there until they go to 900cc. Isn't that 2012?

Really, the most important advice about helmets is that you've got to go try them on. Hit a few dealers in your area so you can try different makes and models. A helmet that doesn't fit right is miserable. It doesn't matter how many other people like it. I liked the bang for the buck of the...

Sticking with WSBK for a moment, I read this week that Eugene Laverty is moving up from Supersport to take the other Yammie WSBK seat. Any idea what's happening to Toseland? Is he about to be unemployed?

I'm a former Memphis resident. Fun town, great history, good eats. I liked it. Good place to visit. My choice, though, would be to ride the twisties. Those are some of the best roads in the country. And there's plenty to see and do in AR. And as a motorcycle destination, Memphis kind of blows...

In honor of the start of the NFL season... From New York Giants running back Brandon Jacobs in yesterday's press conference: "You think I'm stupid, aren't you?"

Oh man, what a cool little project. I think I'll give that one a shot.

USGP AT INDY SPOILER WARNING!!!! The way he controlled the gap to Lorenzo yesterday, I ready to declare the kid a contendah. Sure, maybe Lorenzo wasn't pushing as hard as he could because he doesn't have to, but I think Ben had him covered anyway.

That secret was so poorly kept that I thought it had already been announced. :huh: It's nice that it's really official, though. I can't wait to see how Ben will do. Dennis Noyes on speed.com is saying that benefits should already start flowing Ben's way -- he said Ben's bike should be...

:lol: Well done!
