    Don't hate me because I get cheap insurance...

    Easy mike, you don't want to break a hip! Now go change your diaper.

    Buying A Used Bike on Craigslist

    Most people that own major purchases, such as a car or a $10,000 bike, don't have the means to pay cash for them. And if they are selling them, it's usually because they can't/won't afford the payments anymore. I have bought/sold quite a few vehicles with a lien on them, it's not a big deal...

    The first TURBO fjr

    Don't we have GPS proof of people doing 1000mph+ stock? So 220 with a turbo motor is actually a downgrade, and should be a very reliable package. Maybe he can even improve gas mileage?

    What charger should I use for charging my FJR battery?

    +1 on the battery tender. i have a jr. and leave it hooked up to the bike with the pigtails all winter long. it's nice too if the bike is gonna sit for more than a couple days (i live in ny so sometimes that happens).

    Wife is looking at a Riddley, anybody have any experience with them?

    Saw them on an episode of american thunder. they seemed to like them. definately expands the market for bikes, especially to women (no offense, i know there are tons of women out there who are capable riders). kind of pricy, but not too bad for an american made cruiser.

    Family dog of 16 years gone

    I'm sorry for your loss too. I have 2 dogs and 4 cats, all within 2 years of each other. So I imagine they will all go within the same timeframe. Just reading your story brings tears to my eyes, as I'm sitting between my dogs. I don't think petless people can comprehend exactly how close you...

    It's totally redneck, but I love it

    Yes, murph, it is a battery pack, and wireless transmitter. And i'm pretty sure helga is a dude.

    Max will be filing for unemployment compensation

    Obviously there's something going on. There's riders with way less talent than Max with rides. That's an awefully short, factless press release.

    Do people ask you what your bike is??

    That's way more obscure than the FJR. There can't be many of those around yet.

    looking for love in new jersey

    I have an 05 ABS, with 10k miles, with lots of goodies. It's never been dropped, and is in excellent condition. PM me if you're interested, I'm in Buffalo, but would be willing to travel some to meet.

    New Goldwing pricing

    My parents bought an 07 in april. i believe they paid just over 20k for a navi/non-abs. this was at a small dealer, so i'm sure better prices could be had. they wanted a dealer they liked, not neccessarily the absolute bottom line price.

    Is a new 06 worth $4k more than an 05 with low milage

    WTF? Gen 1 bikes worth 0? Without the Gen 1 bikes there would be no Gen 2 bikes. You'll always find people that will bitch no matter how great a bike is. As for the heat issue, I just don't get it. Yeah, it's warm, but definately not hot enough to stop me from riding. People bitch about...

    mid-ohio

    I know, we spent Sunday at the hotel drinking. Saturday was cool, MUCH faster in person than on TV. Sunday we got up, it was raining so we put on our gear and went for breakfast at the track. Got soaked, stopped at the Kroger's in Mansfield to pick up a couple six-packs, and drank at the...

    Mod to Trunk Mounting Surface Notice

    I'm thinking of cracking mine, just to get a new one. ;) But seriously, I agree that Yamaha went above and beyond on this one. They could just ignore the problem, same with the ticker issue. No recall, but they've been stepping up to the plate. Try and get a car manufacturer to do that.

    Gen 1 risers wanted

    I've got a pair of Doug Hines risers you can have for $45 shipped, if you want to wait a few days. I'm leaving for mid-ohio race tomorrow morning, be back Monday. They are the standard ones. Fit on my 03, but the bolts seem just a touch too long for my 05?? Don't know why, but it would be...

    That's good to know. I'm definately going to be moving around, especially to drool in the paddock.
