My Shoei RF1000 finally gave up the ghost. Interior foam began to begin flaking. Yes, know you’re supposed to replace your helmet every 5-8 years. This puppy went about 14 years for me. Great lid. Luckily I have two of them, and the other seems fine.     I didn’t want someone to pull this...

I think I had a thread on cigars/whiskey awhile back, but was just curious here... Do you prefer Scotch or Bourbon? The reason I ask is I've been a Scotch guy since high school (yep even underage) My brother in law is a Bourbon guy. He sent me a bottle of a Kentucky Bourbon he really likes, and...

Due to commitments with relatives, we celebrated our usual Christmas Day opening of the presents yesterday. Son came over, grilled up some burgers, finally using the kettle grill I bought just for the lid for my UDS. Pretty nice haul for me this year: Hope you all have a Very Merry...

A guy texts his neighbor: "Bob, I'm sorry. I've been riddled with guilt and I have to confess: I have been helping myself to your wife when you're not around, probably more than you. I know it's no excuse but I don't get it at home. I can't live with the guilt any longer. I hope you'll accept...

PROOF THAT MEN HAVE BETTER FRIENDS Friendship among women: A woman didn't come home one night. The next morning she came home. She told her husband that she had slept over at a friend's house. The man called his wife's 10 best friends. None of them said that they knew anything about it...

A few days ago, while riding my Bonnie, it was cold so I wore my old leathers. I stopped for a red light in downtown St. Louis .In the lane next to me, was a car full of latte sucking hippie millennials. They had anti-gun bumper stickers on their car. When they looked at me, they began voicing...

This is working on other forums, not sure if it will work here. But if you have a post where your photo bucket image has been replaced with that stupid upgrade message, you can see your photo if you do this... Hit "edit", go to the URL string for the image and where it ends with "jpg" simply...

Sorry if this was already posted... But thoughts on the "Sport Touring" Kawasaki H2? Luggage looks small and no shaft drive but other nice amenities:

A Policeman on his horse says to a little girl on her bike, "Did Santa get you that?" "Yes," she replies. "Well tell Santa to put a reflector light on it next year," and fines her $5. The little girl looks up at the Policeman and says, "Nice horse you've got here. Did Santa bring you that too?"...

Am looking at making my own jerky. Do not know squat about this, other than you put marinated meat into a food dehydrator and out comes jerky. So, any tips, suggestions, useful gadgets and recommendations on what model dehydrator to get will be useful. And any recipes once I get going. So far...
