    Disappointed in FJR headlights

    I'm happy with my lighting. As mentioned, sharp turns could leave a 4 legged rat in the shadows, but i'm rarely going fast enough at night for it to be to much of an issue for me. Sorry about the vibration. This video was made with a camera mounted on the mirror stalk. Can't handle all the...

    Have you or will you be in an accident?

    My friend took this picture after I had a run-in with a kamikazi forest rat. Show here is the long skid mark from the back tire on a V-star, the center is the scrap from the frame, and left of that the two skids from my boot as the peg got to the ground and pulled my foot off the peg (twisting...

    North American Wild Card Moto-Tag Game

    I guess it depends on where you live. While the historic sites we have around Checkwrecks and I are interesting to you, I find the engineering of bridges in Freds area to be cool as well. I do appreciate what we have, but I have access to them all the time, which makes them less inticing then...

    North American Wild Card Moto-Tag Game

    Here you go Fred I could email the mega size if you want. Maybe another adventure could be made of this. For the locals like me around all the Va battlefields, memorials, D.C., Race horse country, etc, maybe people could request remote vacations. Suggesting places, (that they don't have...

    North American Wild Card Moto-Tag Game

    I know we have many farriers around here , but I'll be darned if I can't find one I can get a picture of. Would a mobile farrier count? I see them on the road every week. It was a great adventure on the back roads today, regardless of the failure.

    Just another Sunday afternoon - Extreme Hill Climb!

    I'm curious what the ratio of finishes to rollovers was in the first event. Either way that is nuts!!! Thanks for the link.

    Gen2/3 Subframe Stiffy Kit by Garauld

    I think Gary's rack with back rest I got a few years ago has saved my frame. I am guilty of loading my givi heavy. I think I've pressed my luck enough. PM in process.

    Impromptu Tech Day - Part Deux 4/19/14

    I had a few scares last year with the "texters" during my commutes to work.. Took a break from riding to recover a little. The Fjr does not do well at 60 in the median(but it did get me through that occasion). I need to purchase and mount a go-pro or something to record my murder if they take...

    2014 Appalachian Campout

    You can put me down for maybe at the moment. Wheatie's first campout @BRMC was my first official Fjr Group event, but they weren't serving food at the time.
