    Motorcycle Tip Over Winch

    I typically ride solo. I can pick up my T-Rex-equipped FJR in good conditions (e.g. flat, hard ground), but dropped it last summer on the side-slope of a steep asphalt incline (Hells Canyon Dam access road). It fell to the downhill side and I could not pick it up. On level ground, the crash bars...

    Hi Tyler, Murphy's messin' with my June plans. I'm gonna have to bow out. You folks have fun! On the bright side, another single room is now available. Thx for putting this shindig together!

    The WHY NOT 2023 is a reality!

She said they could arrange to reserve a spot for me to park my car hauler overnight. That is very accommodating!

    Not a "Reuben Run or The Last Hurrah" - Gauging Interest on a First Annual " Why Not? " in Lapine, OR

    Dang it! The Oregon Raceway Park Track Days are that same weekend. I'll have to take a rain check. I will be hauling my car through Baker City on Friday. Maybe I can stop in and say Howdy.

    Not a "Reuben Run or The Last Hurrah" - Gauging Interest on a First Annual " Why Not? " in Lapine, OR

    Hi JP, I'm in if the final dates don't conflict with my Track Days. Thankfully, I've still got good knees, so I could take one of the upstairs singles. I can go with or without the motel breakfast. Thx for working on this!

    Gen 3 Back Rest

    Based on the picture you posted, I assume you're looking for a passenger backrest. Have you seen the one from Pirates Lair? They look nice, but are pricey. Russell Cycle Products makes both rider and pillion backrests, but of course you have to buy their seats. The Rider Backrest base is...

    Phone mount

    I've been using Tackform holders with Ram ball mounts for four years on my road and dirt bikes. The Galaxy S8+ has never shifted in the mount, even on rough terrain. https://www.tackform.com/collections/motorcycle-phone-mounts Phone hasn't been lost, stolen or damaged.
