    05/Gen 1 smuggler question.

    Thanks! While I agree with Hud, I also need to get this fixed asap. So, my screenname, without the space for 13, and @gmail.com. As an aside, you really fly Vipers? HUGE aviation fan. So much so, my road trips/vacations with my son always have some form of military aviation involved. Last year...

    05/Gen 1 smuggler question.

    Long story short, I had the smuggler on the back of my FJR during an accident that totalled the bike. Got divorced a few years ago, and found the latching mechanism gone. Now that lifes finally stabilized, I got a replacement tongue from corbin(after 2 years of trying, and giving up). They gave...

    Great Cleaning Tip

    Silly fact. Saliva works as well, if not better than Peroxide. It just depends on how much you have to clean, and how much you have in "reserve". I do it all the time to get that dried, caked blood out of spots where nothing else works. Like the clots the lazy ass I relieve in the morning...

    Shorai Battery - not good in cold

    2 yrs ago this may have meant something to me. Now, that my commute is 2.5 miles home form work, it's not worth the expenditure in fuel,risk, or battery discharge. I'm practically home by the time the bike would be warmed up with those temps. Not an argument for, or against, but many here...

    electrosport problem

    The arrangement has me a little confused. When you say not in parallel, how do you arrange them then? I might be a little slow today, so forgive me if it's that dumb of a question(been up since 0430 w/ 4 hrs of sleep in the last 3 days). Woohoo! My 666th post!

    electrosport problem

    Alright, I've had the Electrosport stator for awhile now. It was initially on my 1st 05 in 07, until she got totalled. I took it off and put it on my "new" 05 in november of 07, didn't really ride again until july of 08 due to a broken ankle and some confidence issues afterward(bike only...

    Practical Jokes...

    Whenever I can, I'll ask someone eating ice cream if theirs smells funny, while sniffing mine and making a disgusted face. As soon as they get close enough for a good sniff.....WHAM! I slap it right into their nose. The looks are usually hilarious, to me. It works on everyone that hasn't been...

    I'm going to see a hockey game tomorrow!

    Yeah, I paid waaaaay too much, coulda done much better with the money AND feel a little guilty about spending the money on me instead of adding it to my sons college fund. At the same time I remind myself of the promise I made to myself 18 yrs ago, when I was stuck on a submarine watching the...

    Yamaha Super Tenere 1200

    My only gripe with their design is this little doo-hicky How much will that cost to fix when it goes down on the left side? How much force can it take? The gaurds don't seem to do a good job protecting it. Trust me, these questions come from experience, not any fanboydom. My bike went down...

    Yamaha Super Tenere 1200

    Would love to see this come to the USA. By the time it does , I'll have returned from my 2nd trip to Alaska on my GSA. As far as problems with my bike, none yet. Same w/ my FJR. It kills me to hear people say they won't buy this bike or that bike because "joe blow had a problem w/ his kanuter...

    Patti Knight (Mrs. TWN) Passed Away, Friday, 1/15

    So sorry to hear about this. 4 days from diagnosis to her passing if I didn't miss anything? I only hope with that timeframe there was minimal suffering for her, she'd been through enough. I hope Tim and her are together again.
