    Fun ride into Mexico Yesterday

    I've been seriously thinking about making the same ride through Tecate. Definitely keep us posted about your next run... If I can swing it I'm definitely in!

    Motorcycle Kryptonite: Commuting Cops in Formation

    Very well stated :) It's getting harder and harder to even consider driving a car in rush hour traffic after enjoying the freedom of lane-sharing on a bike. I think I'd probably sell the bike if the legislature ever made it illegal. Canyon riding is fun but I think I get even MORE...

    Thank you!

    TriggerT that looks like the '06 CalSci aftermarket windshield. The holes were cut differently for the '06 verus earlier models... CalSci

    Y.E.S.

    I think your bike has about 100 farkles more than mine... I would (hopefully) notice the difference. :huh: I bought my YES from D&H on my last day of eligibility because, frankly, I procrastinated. Finally all the talk about the small number of bikes being tickers scared me into it... just...

    WFO-5 Pictures

    Thanks FJRCHIK! Nice pics and narration. I've been checking for the last couple of days and was wondering when SOMEBODY was gonna post a picture thread of the event. I was beginining to think you'd all been sworn to secrecy or something -- "happens in Reno/stays in Reno" ... :assassin:

    Mesa Grande - Banners Grade - Sunrise Highway

    That was a great ride with a lot of scenery throughout! :yahoo: :yahoo: ... and yes those cows did scare the hell outta me when we came around that corner -- especially the one that decided "NOW" would be a good time to make a left turn into my lane. All I had time to think was "this...

    Another 2006 AE write-up

    I was thinking the same thing. His profit margin must be razor-thin but I'm sure he makes up for it with extreme volume off Ebay... Glad it's not a hoax but at a cost of roughly $36 for three mazagines for 3 years I had to give it a shot!

    Another 2006 AE write-up

    Thanks for the great tip! I just loaded up on a few 3 year subscriptions for Cycle World, Motor Trend and Boating... :yahoo:

    Ok all you Californians.....

    With all the crap that's wrong with California there is at least one thing we get to brag about - lane sharing! (Of course bragging about driving through cars stopped in traffic on the freeway seems to be some kind of oxymoron :blink: )

    New Smuggler from FSD

    +3 but obviously depends on styling/pricing... Corbin's price was way off the mark!

    Zero-Dollar Helmet Lock

    On my helmet, the strap with the D-ring is too short. It can't extend into the side bags...

    Zero-Dollar Helmet Lock

    In those pictures the side cases are empty but I took all the crap out of them before I took the pictures. If they were empty earlier in the day I would have just put the helmet inside...

    Zero-Dollar Helmet Lock

    Thanks guys for the comments but the ol' saying applies. Not the one about "necessity being the mother of invention". I'm sure there's got to be some ol' saying about "a guy being too lazy to carry his helmet around that he'll think up something" so that he doesn't have to carry it?...

    Zero-Dollar Helmet Lock

    I just KNEW somebody would call me on that one... Oh well, at least one of the suggestions is free (I didn't think anyone would look at the thread if I said it was a $3 solution (damn cheapskates))! ;) :lol:

    Zero-Dollar Helmet Lock

    Not sure I've seen these hints mentioned on the forum so thought they might be helpful to someone. I Forgot to bring my helmet cable/lock with me to work today so I found two alternatives. 1. First, I used my $3 disc-brake cable. I first fed one of the loops through the helmet and pulled the...

    '06 sitting on sales floor in seattle

    If you're looking for a reputable dealer in SoCal I've heard nothing but good comments about South Bay Motorcycle in San Diego. I didn't buy from them (wish I'd have read this forum earlier!) but I have been doing all my service with them and so far so good. As for the other dealerships, let's...

    Lane sharing

    This is EXACTLY the reason I got a motorcycle... I decided that if you can't beat 'em, join 'em! ;)

    San Diego and Riverside County Residents

    Santa Fe you've got email (again). :assassin: I'm a moderate/fast twisties kinda guy. If I feel the group is more advanced than I am then I'll gladly take up the rear of the pack without damage to my ego. ;) I also like the other types of riding to go to restaurants, view scenery, etc...

    San Diego and Riverside County Residents

    Santa Fe, I sent you a couple of emails on the "other" board but you must not have received them (I'm Kroozin on the other board). A few of us went on a ride this past weekend and I tried to contact you to see if you were interested. Just keep an eye this section for rides. It stays pretty...
