It was number 3, the Chevrolet Caprice 6.0L RWD at 155mph that topped the list. The CHP used to run those sneaky little Mustang Interceptors that were devilishly hard to spot and were rumored to top out around 150 but I never saw verification. There were a couple of them that regularly...

Thanks for posting this. I got mine last year, didn't know it even existed. Have already used it 4 times.

Every time I look at the wear bars and see one that looks like it is almost done I think of this type of picture that seem to show up with frightening regularity on the Forum and I start getting ready to order tires and find someplace to have them changed that doesn't require financing. Tire...

Lots better conversations than mine in room 118. Mine was confined to stand up slowly, keep your weight balanced and stay forward in the walker. Not near as much fun.

On the off chance I can get someone to give me a ride from Mercer Island, where in Snohomish is the Bike Show ? What is parking like ?

Just saw this on Channel 4. The North Cascades Highway is open. Crews had to remove up to 45 feet of snow in some places according to report. All the rain helped this year. Temperatures next week could reach the high 70's but that is pretty far out for an accurate forecast. I'll be happy...

I bled the rear brake system on my '09 yesterday which also had excessive brake pedal travel. Speed Bleeders were installed shortly after purchase. Of course I bled the system starting with the rear caliper so I will need to bleed the system again properly. Rear caliper had a lot of air...

"Bolts to be installed clean and dry" How do you all clean the holes that the head bolts thread into. Cleaning the actual bolt threads and the flange with brake cleaner or some other parts cleaner seems straight forward but I could be wrong there also. I am guessing that maybe those holes...

Received my repaired and repainted side bags from Gary. I have to echo the comments of others on the Forum that his work is indistinguishable from new from the factory. I had a 2" crack in the right side case cover close to the crease at the top of the case that I worked on myself before...

I've been putting this off for several years and am tired of not being able to walk more than about 1/4 mile even when using a cane. Can't live on pain pills and meanwhile the joints accumulate more and more damage. I will have the right knee done this fall/winter or March/april of next year...

Will miss this meet. Total Knee Replacement surgery on May 9 and I have instructions that include no driving for 6 weeks. I asked about riding and was told to add another two weeks. That is not likely to happen but the 13th is definitely out.

I've never had a problem with service or parts at Adventure Motorsports in Monroe. I don't buy a lot of parts there simply because of the pricing but when I have needed something quickly they have always come through. If you are heading south, Yamaha Power Sports Plaza out by Gresham has a...

Haven't checked recently but I hope Rotella T-6 Synthetic is still available as that is all I have used for the last several years in my '09. Inexpensive compared to "Motorcyle" oils and Raven runs well and shifts nicely. I guess I will find out shortly as I need to change the oil and bleed...

Earned my Commercial ASEL and Instrument rating in '67, had a ride in a CAP Trojan at Moses Lake, WA (the old muni airport) and have wanted to fly one ever since. Sadly never happened with work, marriage, buying a house, a daughter. Still dream of flying and am still glad I didn't stick with a...

I don't think that is the case. My credit rating has actually increased since I retired and was never affected when I changed jobs. If you manage your finances prudently I don't think your employment status has much to do with your credit rating.

Sorry to hear there is no activity at the 59er Diner. I can't count the number of times I drove or rode past it and never stopped. Finally stopped with a small group several years ago and again on a solo ride. Can't believe I passed it so many times and didn't stop. I've resolved to not...

I did the same thing as 101stpathfinder die since my fuse block is under the seat also.

Knee replacement surgery scheduled for May 9 so I won't be there.

Rotella T-6 Synthetic after my service contract ran out at 24K. Oil change with filter change take less than 15 minutes after you have done it a couple of times and learn how to wrap some aluminum foil over the exhaust pipes to keep things neat and clean. Rotella T-6 seems to be on sale...

Thanks for posting your experience with the Gen 3 CS replacement. I have never been able to get my; FJR up on the CS. Granted I am 5'9" and 153 lbs and I am sure that is part of my problem but replacing the Gen2 stand with the Gen3 stand seems like a good solution.
