Price $7,500, about $1,000 below retail. Thanks Skooter.

I had both done in 2008-9. The problem I had was not being able to ride before the surgery. Now its easy. Just don't rush it.

Enjoyed a nice level 3 AC separation Saturday - the collar bone to shoulder blade connection. What surprises me is that no attempt was made to return the collar bone to its original location. The course of recovery is to leave it about one diameter high, and walk around with a sling as the 3...

Checking her cellphone records should be part of the accident investigation. If she was texting while she tried to kill you it should increase her liability. Call the prosecuting attorney (assuming there are charges).

I was giving my daughter a short ride - felt her helmet hit my back and had the bike stopped in a couple hundred feet. This really caught me off guard as it was only ten minutes into the ride. I asked her if she was tired but her eyes said it all, so we sat in a restaurant and waited for Mom to...

I did the TBS on my 2009 at about 700 miles. It idles at about 1,000. When I initially hooked up the Morgan Carbtune the pressures were already in tolerance, with the differences more apparent on revving. I matched them up to #3 by turning #1 out a quarter turn, #2 out 1/8, #4 out 1/8. The...

My V65 ran like you described after filling up with water in the fuel in Houston. I think beads of it were rolling around in the tank. Definitely check the fuel supply. Good luck!

Where is a MOTORCYLISTS USE EXTREME CAUTION sign when you need one? Thanks for the heads up Stephen; swift recovery from down here in the south.

I strongly suspect the only thing “special” about the final drive oil for the FJR, which Yamaha puts in perfectly measured little half-pint bottles for $38, is the gullibility and assumed depth of pockets of the owners. I asked a Yamaha mechanic about this and he looked like he was trying to...
