AJ, it's time to step off the anal-retentive train. A lot of stuff COULD happen. Hell, a flying saucer COULD zap your ass into oblivion tomorrow! One could only hope.I knew some dummy was gonna come up with this stupid question. I just didn't expect it to be you two...well, maybe you Skoot , but Petey?? Oh well.Agree with Petey. Anyone can look at your license plate or your VIN on your vehicle. This is not secure information. So why does posting it make it so much worse?Well, thanks for the warning,but anyone can also see your VIN # just inside the windsheeld of your car...I'm not going on vacation anymore..
So I know that license plates and VINs are public. Hell, that's what the VIN on the dash is called. Its the "public VIN."
The DIFFERENCE is that if someone at the mall runs your info, all they know is where you live. Who really cares? We all live somewhere. However; here, they know where you live, know that some keep guns at home, have nice cars in the garage, have good jobs with nice stuff, and they KNOW WHEN YOU ARE GONE...Since we all post up ride info.
Anyone who knows how to use the web knew that Don, AVGeek, and others were 100 miles from home yesterday at breakfast. I wonder if that would be a good time to break into Don's house? He's got 3 more motorcycles, no dog, and no one of any threat at his house.
I don't give a shit if you post it or not, but don't sit back all smug and naive and pretend it can't happen here. It can. I was just reminding those that may not be aware how devious these assholes have gotten.
See?? Its not the anal retentive train. Its the paranoia train. I know some totally random act COULD happen, just as easily as anything else. BUT, 80% of aliens are not zapping humans where, like I said, 80% of theives and burglars are using online social media to locate victims. I just don't see the sense in making it any easier for them.AJ, it's time to step off the anal-retentive train. A lot of stuff COULD happen.

Wheatie, AJ isn't that fecking smart! Dumbass thinks I'm going to St. Martin for 2 weeks vacation, I fooled his silly ass and I'm going to St. Croix instead!This is just AJ's way of saying he loves you guys...and doesn't want bad stuff to happen to his buddies. You just have to read his words with the "AJ filter" on.
Petey and SkooterG: Please keep kicking this whining, sniveling, bitchy little girl tool right square in the apple sacks. 1) I have five bikes at my house if you count Mary Ellen - MEM's FZ6 and 2) My 16 week old blonde Labrador Retriever puppy Osito would have bitten the balls off of any burglar, you know just how fecking mean those Canadians can be.Well, thanks for the warning,but anyone can also see your VIN # just inside the windshield of your car...I'm not going on vacation anymore..

How the hell did you get away with getting the new one and not her? She not have you properly trained yet?Picked #65 on 11/12/12 from TEAM Winnebagoland, Oshkosh WI.
I went the other way, and had both a Gen I and Gen II FJR before I added a Super Tenere. I've actually been riding my Gen II more lately, as the full fairing and motorized windscreen have made the nippy commute to the office in the morning more tolerable...the rush of acceleration on the FJR is also a whole 'nother animal from the ST...you'll find excuses to open her up just to get a hit...
Had to break her in the idea of having a FJR so I could keep Gen II and trade her original bike in on the Gen IIIHow the hell did you get away with getting the new one and not her? She not have you properly trained yet?Picked #65 on 11/12/12 from TEAM Winnebagoland, Oshkosh WI.
