Thanks for putting this in the correct section. I'll give the seafoam time. Front brake rotors were warm to touch just on a short ride not using them. You could feel the pads grabbing the rotors when I spun the front wheel by hand. Squirted with PB blast. Hope it works. I mentioned to service...

It seems my local dealers (service) will no longer service bikes over 10 years old, due to no parts being supplied. I have a 2008 AE and am not either set up nor inclined to do other than basic maintenance and my bike can sure use it. Let it sit too long, removed old gas, refilled with real...

Dwight, another dude that needs to lose weight back left white shirt. I really enjoyed all the conversation.

Nice little RTE, thanks and nice to meet you all. Was 92 degrees heading out of Ft Pierce and thankfully the sky faucets opened up and cooled me off wonderfully. Firecracker shrimp taco FTW!

This stranger will be there.

You could take the long way to YeeHaw from Okee. Ride to Ft. Pierce stop at the Navy Seal museum and test your mettle on their obstacle course and then enjoy the beach right there for a bit (free parking and no crowds) then ride up A1A to Vero Beach then across to YeeHaw. If you like kayak bass...

I might be able to make 11/18 although brother is down visiting family in Deerfield beach so might be tied up doing family things. Cowpokes is just down the road from me too. Other places I'm interested in are Pecks Old Port Cove near Homosassa and Tony's on Cedar Key but I'm open for any RTE...

Interesting to see the bonuses when this is over. Colorado has drawn a lot of attention on all three legs as has Kentucky Tennessee.

Sure looks like a blue whale gathering. I wonder how many are coming with it as a fourth in their string as well? Bummer seeing the spots of those who have thrown in the towel. Looks like Key West is going to get another rider along with Steve. In Pensacola now.

Another long road ahead is the rider stopped on marathon key. 21 hours no traffic or stops.

Hopes dashed! The day five report is the day four results report.

When I saw this was a Earls design and then stings I thought oh oh Jim O has this. From seeing what he did on the big sky railroad Earls design which was all about complex strings. Day one results are confirming this although Jim is an amazing rider regardless. I'm rooting for the burgman...

Bigfoot could be in my backyard as well. There is a Sasquatch researcher, book writer just down the road from my cabin up in da UP eh. Also the Gay Bar is nearby which seems to be a favorite of the IBR. Can't wait to follow along.

crap, can't make it. Was supposed to sell a bike this morning and then leave for the RTE but the buyer never showed, still hasn't. Oh well, next time I guess. Bappo

Just moved down this way to Lorida (near Sebring) and would like to meet up with you all and say hello so count me in for the lunch. Thanks! Florida Cracker Bappo

When tenting it is a Big Agnes bag with an Exped rectangle pad stuffed in the the bag sleeve. When hanging, well, it is more comfy with downy goodness. On my trip to Yukon/AK I only brought the hammock and only went to ground once.

Should be about 40 F here in ID when I take off tomorrow morning for FL. Not bringing the electrics cuz I want them for the northern riding. Figure I'll be chilly for a couple hours then all good to hot afterwards.

I'll be installing Darla's tomorrow on my FJR and will have this thread open in the garage with me. Thanks for this tutorial! Bappo

Oh I definitely will be following RTE's. Can't wait. And thanks!

Thanks, I will fly home after storing the bike in Deerfield Beach and then when I return in November I will be staying until March/April when I will head to da UP for the summer. The FJR will be used all winter as primary transport. So April till November in the UP and winter in FL with MANY...
