My wife has been wanting a razr for a while. I was at the dealer to get one for our anniversary and being a Polaris/ Yamaha shop and them knowing me the salesman told me to wait a little while for Yamahas new sport UTV. He wouldn't give me any info just said I would be back losing money on the...

Just thought I would throw in this experience. I had a 1978 GL1000. At the mid 450,000 mile range in Montana the rear wheel locked up and I slid off the road. at the time Honda said the driveshaft was maintenance free. Honda was interested in my bike because of the mileage and took it in on...

It was really nice talking with you at EOM and I look forward to seeing you at future events. For an Air Farce...

this thread reminds me of a saying we had in the navy. "why are there Marines on Navy ships? ......because sheep would be too obvious. i haven't registered yet but will be soon and i am willing to let as many people sleep in my room as want to. i will only share my bed with one other person...

a hydration pack will not hurt you and can actually cushion the impact. i have done a lot of dirtbiking and downhill mtn biking with them and after many crashes have never burst a bladder. if you change your route and throw niagara falls in let me know i can provide you with a free place to stay...
