Oyster Run Death FJR rider from Blaine taken out by a MT07 rider who ran a red light on SR20 by Burlington. I went to high school with the FJR rider. Hadn't seen him in many moons, but nevertheless, it sucks. It sucks even more to have been taken out by a fellow rider. Be careful out there...

I'm going to buy a new bike in 2022. It will be a sport tourer and not an ADV bike. That's where my proclivity lies and that's how I roll. I only know two things for sure, it will have a shaft and it will be blue. I hate chains and I love blue. That really pushes things towards the...

Passed away Tuesday, announced today.  Will be putting on some Rush to remember.

https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/491835187/crosshelmet-the-smart-motorcycle-helmet A buddy sent me the above Kick Starter site. I thought it was kind of interesting. I like the HUD aspect for the smart phone data. The rearview camera is sort of MEH. Funny looking lid, but I think some of...

Why are the Yamaha parts desks around here such fucktards? One has absolutely no issue with charging you $13 for an oil filter, or $30 for an air filter, or $75 for a set of brake pads; and another can't seem to order parts when you ask. Another bitches at you about his parts department...

Good to see you on Lake City Way this morning.

Time to start thinking about a new set of treads. I've been running Z8's and I have been extremely happy with their longevity and performance. But, the last two sets have needed about 8 pounds of lead on the back to balance and the fronts tend to give me some head shake. Especially the last...

Niehart showing us how graceful he is on an FJR: Sploosh

N. Cascades Highway was awash with County and State revenue agents last weekend. I managed to get both directions with out donating to the government coffers. Not for lack of trying on their part either. Condolences to the FJR being detained on Washington Pass Monday. I hate to say it, but...

Thanks Ernie. It was great to ride a bit with you up the Coquihalla Hwy and have lunch in Merritt. The roads you suggested first rate. Thanks for showing us a great time. Looking forward to checking out some of the others you showed us. Take care my friend.

Soooo... Last month I take my 08 to my dealer to have the head light assembly replaced and when they're done they tell me there's a coolant leak (it's true, I could whiff glycol occasionally) around my thermostat housing and that they've ordered the parts and will let me know when they come in...

Headlight lenses cracked. Dealer replaced the entire assembly under YES. They said this was the second 08 they had fixed for this problem. I saw the part from the other bike and it had cracked the same way. Looks like there may have been some with a molding defect to the inner lenses.

Thanks to George and Dave for doing the breakfast thing. Much thanks to the vendors who provided the goodies. For me, special thanks to Adventure Motorsports for the gift certificate. They are always my shop of choice. Was great to see you all again.
