I haven't had a thousand mile day, but I've ridden at a thousand-mile-a-day PACE. Just last week I rode 60 miles in an hour, so that's under 18 hours for the thousand. No problem.

Happy birthday young feller. I'm not having any pie, but now Gordon's got me thinking about you anyway. Thanks, Gord.

Just remember you must have the tank bra, otherwise the bag clips are just flopping in the wind. I liked the Bagster on my Gen I; it's sort of a leather-like material with a thin foam lining that actually insulated the hot gas tank pretty effectively. The '05 heated up the tank pretty bad once...

Well, maybe if you were sleeping ON the dirt . . .

Excellent work, T. Thanks.

It's been said (by Ross Kean) already, but I'll second it anyway. When you head out, have a NEW tube of whatever glue you use. Despite the instructions I've seen on various string products, smear the string with glue too. I use E6000 and it has done the job just fine, but when you get home...

Lighten up, youse guys.

It's a long day for me. Just getting to LaPine from Sac is a long day for me, and I see Baker is a couple hundred more, so it's iffy. Still, with only 3 of your list "commited" so far, I guess I can join the uncommitted majority and see what I can do as it gets closer. Fun area and nice hotel...

Yep. High. Good luck with the search, but keep a fly n' ride option in mind. A nice long ride home can be a lot of fun on the right bike. Congrats on figuring out what the right bike was.

Wow! Way more people than I expected to see signed up already. This'll be a great meet, guys. I don't think anybody will be too disappointed with the riding you'll find up that way. @EddyRascal: It's by no means mandatory, but if you had a nice single malt in your saddlebag, nobody would...

I first saw one of these at a Progressive Motorcycle Show at the San Mateo fairgrounds--sorry to say NorCal doesn't rate being on that show's circuit anymore. But the first time I saw this thing I loved it and bought it there, with free shipping when bought at the show. It's perfect for me...

Been kind of looking for this thread for a while. Weather's still happening, right? Just wanted to mention our sunny California weather. Raining. Still. We've been hearing from people we know all over the freaking world, asking if we're ok. Yes, we are, but a lot of folks nearby are not...

Wow. Don't need it, but that pair started at $200 and with 18 minutes left, it's still at the same price with zero bids. Somebody could swoop in and score a real deal. (Fits any FJR too, of course.)

hey John--just saw this. In. Thanks.

You're still an animal. And Tony doesn't have tire issues, Kevin. He always carries a roll of duct tape.

Hmm. Not so far from here. . .

And forewarned is . . .

AND I read this morning there's still one room available at the group rate. Or was when it was posted. Hope to see you there Russ.

Dude--I just posted on that V-Stream thread you also posted on. I was surprised to see you back posting so I even mentioned that in my post. Now here you are again! So are you going to post on EVERY freaking thread I read now?

I'm with Bluesman (it's been a while, Simon) about changing out the shields, Had the big V-Stream a while ago and liked it very much for cold and rain, but not at all in the heat. It was summer when a few of us met up with a rider from Australia who was passing through with his wife and...
