Has anyone mounted an EZ pass transponder on the windshield or on/inside the front cowling? If so, had any problems with faulty transmissions? I've got EZ pass in the car, and its great for qetting through toll plazas quickly. The EZ pass store has a disclaimer about motorcycle mounting the...

I voted for Lewisburg because I can generally only get two days worth of riding in during EOM. Lewisburg is far enough, anything further away is simply not worth the time spent superslabbing for the amount of time spent riding. There's a good hotel in Lewisburg, there are great routes...

My dealer told me today that Yamaha promised him a November 1, 2007 delivery date. I have docketed a 1 month status call-up in case he doesn't call me. Good luck!

Many thanks, JimLor! I will admit the front forks intimidate me, and that's why I haven't changed their oil yet. Trouble is, my local Yamaha shop also appears intimidated - the shop guy tried to talk me out of changing the oil. I'd rather try it myself than pay to have him take a shot at it!

I am happy with the Wilbers rear spring/shock on my '05. The bike now has 20,000 miles, and I plan to replace the (original) front suspension oil this winter. My question is for those who have replaced the progressive front springs with a straight rate spring or maybe the Traxxion Dynamics...

Paypal sent! Looking forward to good riding, good times and good food!

Well, OK, I understand there was some dissatisfaction with the original Wilber's rear spring rates for some folks. IIRC, Klaus made people whole by replacing the springs. I had Klaus install my shock, and I think he did a great job. I don't know or care about Wilbers Germany or their...

Definitely interested in this farkle, but I gotta ask a fairly basic question (apologies to all if already asked and answered): Do we need to drill/mount a fitting onto the main tank, or put another way, how does your plumbing get the fuel cell gas to the engine? Second question for those...

Increase the cagers' awareness you exist. Consider 1. Installling extra lighting (eg. Hyperlites) 2. Wearing bright clothing rather than black leathers. You can buy safety vests which reflect light and which don't make you look too dorky. 3. swerving a bit within your lane. I've...

Mevermind, the post above provides all I need to know!

I recieved my front tire from Pirelli in August, within a week of mailing the claim form. However, I am still waiting on the rear. And yes, my credit card was charged, in complete violation of the stated policy on the vendor's website. :angry2: He claims Pirelli says the tires will be...

JB, My bike prep consisted of having new tires put on and then washing/waxing the bike, changing the oil. oil filter and rear drive fluid on Saturday. Drove it down to VIR on Sunday, took the light bulbs out of the rear brake, put blue soccer socks over my mirrors (thereby avoiding duct tape...

JB, I put new tires on Saturday, despite the fact my "old" tires have plenty of tread left The "old" tires are in my Camry's trunk until the new ones wear out. They said they rejected one bike during technical inspection, but I don't know if it was because of tires. I know its a lot of...

Ari, I can only give you one data point so your results may vary. However, my impression was the instructors - at least for group B - were very willing to help students, and were not simply burning up the track. However, given the number of students on the track you might have to ask for...

Mark, CLASS requires a full-face helmet, boots that go over the ankle, gloves which cover the wrist, and either a leather or textile riding suit. The pants and jacket do not have to zipper together. Their URL is https://www.classrides.com. Having seen you ride, I expect you would feel...

On Monday, I attended Reggie Pridmore's CLASS track school at Virginia International Raceway. The standard disclaimer applies - I have no relation to Pridmore or his CLASS school. I've been riding for 7 years, with the first five on a Yamaha V-Star 1100 cruiser. I've never done a track day...

I'll add my two cents, although most of it has already been said. First, Travis is getting much deserved recognition for putting on a great meet. Second, you WFO riders are missing out - come ride our roads!! The White Knuckle Express was a blast! It was great to renew friendships made...

1 for chicken, thanks

Umm, guys, I really think you ought to meet at the Sheetz at 9:00 as previously agreed/stated. Unless the information has been changed, thats where it says you will meet on the board calendar. First, the sheetz station is easy to get to from major highways, and second, other riders may also be...
