The Wall Live Nashville, TN 19June12 It was a great show!

I've been running PR2s for several years and like them. I have a new pair ready to be installed. The old dirt floor independent shop that has previously done my installs for $10-$20 per tire has a new policy- they will only install tires bought from them (and they will bill full MSRP+). So, I...

****Bought New Part...No longer Needed***** Lost the Yamaha badge at SFO somehow, rubber bumper is fine. Anyone have one you don't need? Thanks.

I departed from Hardy, AR, around midnight Wed, 22 Sep. Why did I begin the ride at midnight? Madness, I suspect. It was a cooler ride and I had no deer encounters, so the decision ended up being okay. On RT 412 in TN around 0200 while cruising at 75mph in a 55 zone a Sheriff came up behind me...

I called to ask if wireless was available in all rooms. Yes, it is. But- Unless you are a Marriot Rewards member and have achieved Gold Status, the internet service charge is $2.95/hour or $12.95/day! :huh: Hope there is a McDonalds with free Wi-Fi close by.

6000 miles on my front PR2. Measured remaining tread depth to wear bars, have 2/32" = approx 1.6mm. If my calculations are correct, it has 2700 miles of life left on it before I hit the wear bars. If I factor accelerated wear during the tire's end of life, say at 1.5 wear rate, the tire has...

***** Found a room share for the 23rd, .....Thanks! --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Have a roommate for the 24th & 25th but I'm now planning to arrive the 23rd. Looking to share a room for the 23rd only. Hell, I can even sleep on the...

Here's another vid. A ride this morning on a road through my town. Yes, urbanites, this road is inside the town limits Vid was taken with a key fob 'spy' pinhole cam I got from ebay for about $12. Making vids is kinda fun but it sure is time intensive, though I've just begun the learning curve...

This is the first video I've ever taken. Ever. It's also probably the absolute worst vid quality you've ever witnessed. Some folks I know from Florida were here to visit last week. I thought it was comical when one of them told me the road to my place was frightening to drive, and they were in...

A message from Arkansas Department of Parks and Tourism

Almost stepped on this guy as I walked off the deck in bare feet & shorts. By using the photo and measuring the concrete + adding a few inches of slack, he is over 6' long. When I tried to pick him up by the tail he acted aggressively. Coiled, twitched the end of his tail, and confronted...

Kidney stones. :( Had labs & imaging done today. Am on antibiotics & pain meds. Already nixed the camping plans & have motels lined up, just hope this curse resolves so I can still make it.

I'm about ready to buy a Nuvi 760, cradle, & power cable. I want to attach it to my stem mount plate but am unsure exactly how to do it. I'd like to order all the parts at once, have them all on hand, and get the thing wired & mounted. Here's the Nuvi cradle- Here's the stem mount- What's...

OK, SFO is 6 weeks away and I have not reserved a room yet. On a tight budget here and need to save $$. Anyone planning on staying at a campground? I'd consider this if any others are going to. How about sharing a room? PM me if interested. Thanks!

Had my TPS recall done today at a dealership I'd never been to before. This is the first time I've had the FJR to a Yamaha dealership since I bought it last year. They did a bang up job on handling the TPS recall and I'm pleased with their service. There was a glitch though. The mechanic let...

After cleaning my kickstand switch today I went for a ride to see if there was any improvement. Nope. Anyway, I ended up visiting the shop that does my tire changes (super secret location) to ask about having my angled valve stems installed. While there I saw a black '09 FJR with NO FARKLES...

Yesterday I took a nice ride through Mark Twain Nat'l Forest. The access road to a small lake had water flowing over it, maybe an inch or two deep. I rode through it at a walking pace. No big splashes or spray. I stopped a minute later to take in the view. Engine running, in gear, clutch fully...

This saddle was on the bike when I bought it. I thought it was a Russell Day-Long. I sent photos to Russell and they responded that it is not a Russell. Any one have an idea who could have built it? It has the wings that look like the ones Russell builds. Considering having the foam replaced &...
