    Punching cats?

    My search results yielded NOT MUCH, so I'll ask... Has anyone successfully PUNCHED OUT their CATS? What I mean, that is, their catalytic converters? In theory, I would like to "remove" the catalysts without removing the header. Again, in theory, I would remove the mufflers, and using some...

    Easy Peasy Coolant Change

    Guys, I did a hybrid service manual/Warchild blowjob today on my Gen I, and I must say this was quite easy. First, there is no need to remove the side panels. In fact, I am not even sure why it is recommended. Takes too much damn time and you can easily perform the service through the opening...

    FJR Update in Rider Mag.

    The problem with motorcycling

    Reading of Wayne's and Annette's accident, something came to light. Something pretty profound... I just becoming a VFR pilot (check ride next week). Will be heading to do instrument next. Not for a living or anything serious, just for fun and education. Aviation, like motorcycling has its...

    Costco selling Zumo 450

    Ladies & Gents, Title says it all! Not too shabby. Remember that the 450 lack's the 550's Bluetooth and spoken streets. If Costco is selling these, it's gott make you wonder if these are being phased out, or just being moved into the mainstream distribution channels. Here is a link for you...

    Zumo maps question

    Yo peeps, got me a zumo and have been a little hung up on the mapping thing. The zumo comes pre-loaded with the City Navigator North America NT 2008 map. I was able to update to the 2009 map for free (yay). Now I have both maps on the PC and the 2009 on the zumo. So I have some questions: 1...

    Bluetooth FRS/GPRS Radio?

    I currently have an Autocomm setup which admittedly, works flawlessly. I have it connected to my Windows Mobile phone for phone, music, navigation, and internet streamed Sirius radio. I also connect it to a FRS / GPRS radio to talk to a buddy of mine who has a FRS chatterbox. I would LOVE to go...

    South Florida Riders

    Five of us managed to get out of bed and put in a few hun'ed miles. Weather was UGLY at first, but once the rain gear went on the rain wouldn't even try. Eventually the sun ruled the latter half. 68 degrees in the morning and 74 in the afternoon - not too shabby. Not trying to make anyone...

    Just got the 12/07 RIDER magazine, and on the cover is the comparo of these four ultimate ST/GT bikes. And the winner (if you can believe this): Honda ST1300!! The ST was chosen for doing everything well, whereas the other bikes had flaws that detracted from the experience. Second place: FJR...

    In-ear noise management

    Yo peeps, I currently ride with a FF helmet which is outfitted with Autocomm communications (mic and speakers). The helmet is not the quietest model on the planet, and I generally prefer to ride with the shield down, which results in clean but noisy air. Add to that the music I play through the...

    Headset cable - where to end it?

    Yo peeps, When I first got my Autocomm, I put it in my tankbag. After a while, I realized it wasn't in the best place considering theft, occasion to ride without the tankbag, loss of usable space due to wires, etc. I have since moved it to under the passenger seat. But now, I am not sure where...
