    Replacing saddlebag side cover???

    I had a saddlebag torn off by the front bumper of a blind lady who didn't know what a stop sign meant. The side cover was fine, the mounts were completely destroyed. I purchased a saddlebag from a fellow forum'er and now have tried the task of switching out the side case covers. I was told it...

    So, it happened...

    SERIOUSLY?? A grand???? Wow! The bottom mount "looks" fine but I haven't tried it out. It was just the rear hole on the back plastics that tore a gash. I was thinking it was gonna be a simple repair...

    Coast to coast to coast, Part II

    That looks like it was awesome!! I don't think I have seen one bad picture of the Grand Canyon or Bryce, ever! You say you have pictures from Nebraska and Iowa? I have lived in Nebraska. There really isn't anything worth taking a picture of out there... Glad you have fun! Wish I could do...

    WTB-Right side case for Gen 1 Silver FJR

    Hey! I had a lady "bump" into my right leg and slid down my tailpipe before I could get her off of me. (Yes, pun intended.) It messed a little with my right ankle but made Yamasuzie loose some weight on the right side. It destroyed my side case and broke the plastic around my rear top side...

    So, it happened...

    It finally happened. I came out better than I thought I was going too. I turned right off a main street onto an outer road and a lady pulled right out in front of me coming out of a gas station. If I had been in a car I would have T-boned her. I swerved to the left and started a slide and...

    270 miles to take a picture of a bridge...

    That's just cool! Sounds like it was a good ride, except for the flat centered wear on your tires without the curves. Good times!

    If you want to come off the coin a bit, you might want to look into Shure e-5 in ear earphones. They are the bomb!! I use them every day just about. I am a worship leader at a church and we have in ear monitoring system. These are the best out of every ear bud I have ever tried. I have...

    Cheapo GPS

    I'm loving my iPhone 3GS with Google Maps and being able to put it in the plastic "sheet" on my tank bag. It has a circle that is your current location and then you follow the directed "line" on the map for the directions you need. It also has different businesses that are close by and weather...

    FJR and BMW 1300

    Don't get me wrong, but isn't the former statement a "thought" which would then negate the latter? Just wondering... It's Monday, sorry.
