    2019 Miles Report

    I think you need to explain the “new speedo”.  Don’t you find that it cramps the boys?  That might explain your reluctance to put in the big miles.

    I want to know everything about riding in Germany

    It is, of course, a case of perspective, experience and desire that forms one's opinion on a topic such as this.  I loved riding in Germany, particularly Bavaria. Were I to go back to Europe, then Germany would be a part of my trip, but I agree that limiting oneself to Germany would be a mistake.

    I want to know everything about riding in Germany

    Battery pig-tail o.e.m. on '16?

    After a two week trip where I had to jump start Spousal Unit's bike a half dozen times I installed a remote positive terminal on my FJR.  I could jump another bike, or be jumped,  without removing any plastic.  This was before I carried a back-up lithium battery.  I never used the remote terminal.

    Scotch or Bourbon?

    Tobacco in any form is great right up until some part of your body turns on you; then things are not so great.  Survival can require a long and painful process that is worse for those who love you.  Then if things go well you get to live with some life long unpleasant disabilities.  Sorry to...

    1930 Stream Line KJ Henderson Motorcycle

    That is an Art Deco design that was hot in the early 1900s.  Better check to see if there is an extended warranty before buying.

    Very First Motorcycle ever

    Take some training courses. Read David Hough’s books: “Proficient Motorcycling “ and “More Proficient Motorcycling “.  You will enjoy riding more and be safer if you take advantage of the knowledge and experience of others.

    PAIR valve issue on my work ride

    You must realize that you cannot get an informed response unless you provide information such as year, make and model of your bike.  A picture of the parts you are concerned about will also help, but then, you may have burned your bridges.
