    MSF ?

    We have a couple staying in our RV Park that I have been having fun talking motorcycles with. During our talk the subject of the MSF safety course came up. Both have just finished taking the course. One shocking thing came up. They were telling me that they were taught to counter balance their...

    Cee Bailey's

    I ordered a windshield (+2T +4W Contour Flip) from Cee Bailey's on the 26th of March. It finally arrived today. I was truly excided. After waiting for 15 days I knew that it was going to be worth the wait. To my disappointment when I opened the box I found that they had sent me the wrong shield...

    Ok, Here we go.

    I will try to start at the beginning (sort of). First of all the ships you see at the terminals are not carrying gas. The super tankers and jumbo tankers are usually carrying crude oil. The smaller ships (T-2 tankers) that can carry around 100,000 barrels (1Bbl=42 gal) are used to carry the...

    Something of interest. (CeeBailey windshields)

    I just ordered a windshield from CeeBailey (A contour flip +4w x +2h). While I was on their web site I saw in their add that they hand buffed their shields. I had a thought so I sent them this e-mail: This was their reply: I thought it interesting that for $15.00 - $20.00 + shipping they...

    A word about heated gear.

    I just have to rave about my heated gear. I have Gerbings gloves and jacket liner but I think that all the brands work about as well. I went for a ride today (380mi). It was 21deg at 7am this morning when I left the house. For the first 2hrs of the ride it didn't get above 28deg. I had the...

    First ride this Spring.

    I was finally able to get my bike out of hibernation and go for my first spring ride (235mi). After changing the fluids I hit the starter and to my surprise she started right up with no hesitation what so ever. She must have been as ready as I was. After 5 months being dormant I thought both...

    Getting ready for spring.

    I have been doing a bunch of work to my bike to get it ready for spring just incase the weather breaks. I wired it for my heated gear and mounted some Avon Storms. While I had the tires and wheels off I cleaned everything up and greased everything that moved. I went down to the local dealer and...

    Planning a ride

    I am getting a little bored with all the snow and not being able to ride so I thought I would use this time to start planning some spring and summer rides. One ride that I am planning is a day ride from Central Oregon down into Ca. I found this ride in the Favorite ride section of the January...

    Power Sport tire Inflator?

    I just received my Slime tire inflator. Like a dummy I deceived to read the owner's manual. Now I have two questions. 1. In the instructions for proper use section, it states: the compressor is not designed for use on high pressure tires such as truck tires, yet the compressor is rated for...

    Motion Pro Econo Carb Tuner.

    Does anyone know if anyone is still selling the Motion Pro Economy Carb Tuner? I looked at the Morgan Carbtune but they seem a little expensive. After talking to the local dealer service dept I think I would rather do the TBS myself.

    Late Christmas present

    My wife and I are finally getting around to getting our Christmas present (heated riding gear). My first thought was jacket liners (with sleeves) and gloves. As I think about it I was wondering if sleeves are really needed. I can save a little money and power by getting vest instead. I do some...

    Trying to find a tool.

    Where can I get one of these? I tried my local YamaShop but the numbers wouldn't come up and they didn't seem to know where to get it. I would like to get it from the US if it really does exist. Steering Head Bearing Service
