Tanks for posting this. I tried to go last year but the parking situation was impossible.

I have been wearing Tourmaster Transistion Jackets since 2010; for daily commuting down to 38 F in the Seattle, WA area with the liner in and in temps up to 105 F in Eastern Washington with the insulated liner removed and a cooling vest under the jacket. Never had any problem with water. Also...

I put my insurance out for bid every two years right after I receive the quote for the coming year from my current insurere. I make it a point to call my current insurere and tell them that I am seeking quotes from other companies and usually receive a revised quote for the coming year...

That's good. Brings back some memories.

Had my right knee replace the end of February so I am 10 weeks post-surgery and not ready for longer rides yet. Wish I was but there is a whole summer ahead to enjoy this ride.

This is the same plug I have been wearing for about 15 years now, buy them in the box of 200 which lasts about 2 1/2/ years fro me. Shuld have started wearing them a long time ago. Had my hearing tested last year at VA and found out that I have a almost total los of hearing above 2500Hz...

I wonder if the electrical system has been beefed up, particularly the alternator?

Great photos and an interesting article. I lived in Jeddah, KSA from '78 to mid '86 and there were a lot of divers exploring wrecks along the coast north or Jeddah. Beautiful clear water and a large variety and numbers of marine life to be seen even when just snorkeling. Lots of sunshine and...

Darth Vader ?

Good on you. That is really a great contribution and I am sure a lot of FJR riders will make the trip to the Barber Museum just to see your bike. Thank You

Just under 40K on my '09. I've thought about selling it and buying a Gen III but just can't justify the expense. I have a KFG tweaked front end that I really like, a Gen III Shock installed and a few electrical tweaks. Had the rear luggage repainted by Garuald, beautifully done, and I don't...

Small world, my sister lives on Baywood Court in Forest Hills. Was down there last summer for a couple of days. Driving unfortunately so I didn't get to enjoy the roads, saw a lot of riders enjoying themselves. Seemed to be a popular riding area.

I think Rich's Custom Seat is in Kingston, WA which is on the north end of the Kitsap Peninsula unless he has moved his shop further west.

Just for the sheer fun of having one !!

That looks like a nice ride after 8 weeks. I am scheduled to have the right knee replaced March 21, 2018 at VA here in Seattle. Had the left knee replaced there in May and it is perfect. Do you have any problem working the rear brake ?

I have a pair of Hella FF50's mounted on Garauld brackets. As posted earlier above, traffic does move out of the way a little quicker and the lights provide a lot of light down the road at night. Mine are controlled with an automatic switch that receives a signal from the High Beam Circuit...
