    The NEXT weakest link

    I don't post here much, but some of you know me. I was the one who first posted a solution and pictures of the Ground Spider issue.

    defective tire?

    I put a set of Bridgestone Bt-021s on my 06 about a month ago and they were working really well for me. However, I took an 1800 mile ride over the last 4 days and checked them before I left on the trip. The tires were fine (only 2000 miles on them at that point). The tire pressures were also...

    Driving lights that draw only 1 Watt!

    I have been looking for an inexpensive alternative to driving lights. The obvious is going with an HID setup, but they are pretty pricey.

    I rode a Concourse 14 today

    Yup, had a chance to ride the new Concourse 14 today for about 15 miles. Have to say that it isn't quite what I expected, and it definately isn't an FJR. First thing is that the c14 is a little more "sport" and a little less "touring" than the FJR. It really is fffffast and handles well, but...

    Yamaha Comfort seat

    I got my Comfort Seat from Yamaha today. Very nice look and feel to the seat. My initial impression was that it is much stiffer than the stocker. After my 50+ mile ride home from work tonight I found that it is an improvement over stock and I can't wait to break it in fully!
