    If you think beef is good for dinner

    For the record, I enjoyed the original post and wasn't offended by it in any way. Sheesh! Lighten up people. It's all good.

    WFO Room opening!

    Did I hear you say, "This time I didn't touch the windshield" ? Have made that flight before? Well, I guess that ends the myth that once you lay the bike down, you don't have to worry about it anymore... Get well soon brother.

    Who was that mystery FJR rider in Dayton???

    I was on the offramp from I675 bypass waiting at the light to turn left onto Col. Glenn Highway and a guy on a blue FJR with full bags came up next to me. He was wearing a silver helmet and a gray and black mesh jacket. My GPZ is red with chrome plated clutch cover and I had on a silver helmet...

    Asshat Award!

    Most likely he just saw an opportunity to give crap to somebody who has the audacity NOT to ride a Harley.

    Ever been spit on when cutting lanes

    Well, I guess I knew that was coming. I understand all the reasons given and, for the most part, agree with them. Let's just say I was playing the devil's advocate and trying to give you the perception of the spitter. For the record, I'm still in complete ownership of my "nards".

    Ever been spit on when cutting lanes

    Ever have anybody cut in line in front of you while you were standing in a line? Pissed you off didn't it? Why not let them cut? You're just sharing the line aren't you? Personally, I can't understand the concept of "lane sharing". Why should somebody on a motorcycle be allowed to go ahead just...

    Most Nervous Day for the FJR Yet

    Funniest bike hauling effort I ever witnessed was while traveling down I-70 once, I came upon a guy driving a moving van, and towing an old 70's something El Camino. And a huge, fully dressed Harley was parked in the bed of the El Camino. The back bumper of that El Camino was tempting the...

    How many draft behind a big truck?

    Ok, plenty has been said. But, I just gotta tell my story. Not to further prove the point, but to just have a moment to tell my story, if you'll indulge me. I'm in Dayton, OH and I took a trip to my sister's in St. Louis one time on the bike I had at the time which was a 1980 Suzuki GS1000G. I...

    My wife went down.....in a bad way!

    Sounds like you were well taken care of by the natives. Thank God for them. I'm glad your wife is ok and I hope you don't mind if I say a prayer for her. Both of you take care and God bless!

    Heating the house with firewood

    All this grandios talk about the good ole' country living is about to make me vomit. As far as I can see, it serves only your ego. Well....and maybe your wallet. But, criminy! Give me a furnace that turns on and off by itself and I'll use the buckstove mostly for ambiance anyday. Ok, maybe I'm...

    Opinions please

    I'd like to solicit some opinions here if I may. The engine in my '95 GPZ1100 has bad rod bearing(s). I was going to make an effort to get in there and fix it, but I found a wrecked GPZ for sale in California for $1000. I called the guy and he actually cut that price in half for me without me...

    Why are people so rude?

    Why is it that "some" people from some other country LOOK for any and every opportunity to say something bad about OUR president. Please don't let this be the start of a political barage because I certainly don't mean for it to be, but I'll be danged if I'm gonna sit here and let a statement...
