    Wrecked the '15 already

    Man, I feel ya. I've never owned a bike that wasn't dinged up in the first month, though I must admit you have my record beat by a couple of weeks. But the bike is stuff. It's insured and can be repaired/replaced. But the ribs! Oouch! Get better soon.

    Around the World in 80 Days (well, the US in 44-sort of)

    Wow! That's not a ride you get to do every day. Sounds incredible. Hell, it looks incredible. Very nice report.

    White Cliffs

    Reminds me of my pooch, Chopper. Great dogs!

    How Much Do You Pay in Gas Tax?

    If you were only developing a single gallon, yea. But the oil companies benefit from economies of scale, and so the per gallon rate is a bit lower than what we pay for it, otherwise they wouldn't make a profit.

    New seat.. I'm on the Laam..

    So for someone like me who is not relishing the idea of doling out $1,000 for a RDL, would you say that this is a close second, or right up there with the Russell as far as comfort?

    Bambi and rudolf

    Glad they missed you (you missed them?). Either way, it's just good practice.

    Veterans

    SGT, US Army 102nd MI BN, 2nd Infantry Div, Korea 2nd Bn, 1st SFG(A), Ft. Lewis, Washington Hope everyone had a great day. The predators won and we were 8 rows off the ice, so we did.

    All Vehicles Carry Chains

    Beautiful shots of the mountains. I can't wait to move back out west.

    Friend's bike stolen, again (LoJack and disk lock--one works the other doesn't)

    I've had the same bike stolen twice, the second time after I spent $900 of my 16 year old money getting it just back to street legal. After that I gave the bike to my brother and he wrecked it while riding illegally on the road (he was 14 or 15 at the time). After that my mom had enough and got...

    2006 FJR stuff - givi rack, windshields, mirror, parts

    Oooh, oooh, oooh. Can I has crankcase cover? This should fit an '08 AE, right? If so, I'll take it. EDIT: Google Fu answered the question. They're the same part. PM sent.

    Why BMW Riders are just "Different" than Yamaha Riders

    According to consumer reports, yes. That plays a HUGE part in my choice, which is why I have a Toyota and Honda. Oh, and a Yamaha. But that's because I have been down the "spend thousands upon thousands of dollars to just keep a car barely running" road. It sucks the big one. Now I spend all...

    Love the video.

    A little cold weather riding/camping in TN/NC/GA

    Yea, luckily the mirror that got scratched was already scratched from another 0MPH drop (riding just after surgery). It seems I have a habit of dropping my bike while doing things that most people wouldn't recommend. Maybe there's a moral here. Naaah.

    A little cold weather riding/camping in TN/NC/GA

    Well it definitely wasn't in the original plan. Every detour we took was to avoid the snow. And 3 out of 4 of us were on dual sport bikes. I just couldn't ask them to turn around just because I was on a sportier bike. I'll probably try a little harder to avoid the snow next time, but I'm...

    A little cold weather riding/camping in TN/NC/GA

    Last weekend (10/1/2014 - 10/4/2014) three friends and I went on a little road trip. Our original plan was to head to NC and do a bunch of the Blue Ridge Parkway north toward Breaks Interstate Park in VA, then back home. Snow in the Smokies nixed the original plan, the secondary plan, and the...

    Oh My...Look what the mothership has done to the 2015 R1!

    And with the limited production numbers, what do you imagine the chances will be that they will come off of MSRP at all?
  18. LagerHead

    Oh My...Look what the mothership has done to the 2015 R1!

    I'd settle for either one. Or that new R1 in lieu of both.
