    Was it you?

    Last night around 7:05pm. Near Henry Mayo Hospital. I'm waiting at a light and here comes an FJR (allegedly;-) on one wheel. No side cases. I just smiled. The wife says, "holy sh!t".

    Gentlemen, I've gone to the dark side...

    Sold the FJR and bought a Euro-slut. And here she is hooked up to the PC getting a new tune. Handy being able to do everything the dealer can from your own garage. The reasons behind this: 1. I commute 64 miles round trip every day on the bike. In L.A. traffic on a bike as big and heavy...

    Almost traded her in...freshened her up instead

    After last years week long photo trip to Death Valley and seeing some guys on adventure bikes, I got the itch. Actually made it to the stealership and changed my mind before signing on the dotted line for a Triumph Tiger 800 XCX. Realized that I love my FJR. What was I thinking!!! Used the...

    Finally Got My Shark

    Got the Evoline 3 Series in Moovit :yahoo: (Several of my riding buds have already called me Tron) I knew it would happen but hey, it's all good. Whatever I can do to help myself be seen out there.... Here's a few photos and something to think about: when it's in the open face mode, the...

    Short putt this Sunday...

    A few guys (most of us two up so it will be a mellow ride) are starting out at Marie Calendars for breakfast right off the 5 and Magic Mountain Parkway - 8am breakfast. Once again I am the only FJR :angry: Most or even all of the other bikes will be Harley's. I think we are looking at...

    WE DID IT!

    Been a fan since I was 4. Went to games at the Forum with my dad. We would get nose bleed seats and walk down almost to the glass and no one would say anything. I started working for AEG in December of 1998. STAPLES Center was still a hole in the ground. We've come along way since then...

    Hopefully this doesn't offend anyone...

    Why doesn't Jesus eat M&M's? Because they fall through the holes in his hands :yahoo: :clapping: :clown2: :hyper: :nono:

    Thumbs Up for Morgan Carb Tune

    Man it was night and day doing the sync today. The Morgan product is a pleasure to use and since it uses stainless steel rods instead of liquid, it's much easier to use. Best $ I've spent in a long time. By the way I hated the other sync tool. I'm in Valencia if any other forum members are...

    Eastern Beaver Harnesses - FJR Specific

    I had asked if he could make a harness with the positive bat lead longer than the neg. Currently they come back-ass-wards for our bikes. He is adding that option online now :clapping:

    New Respect for Kawasaki

    While I was getting my new front tire put on this morning, I met a guy there with a Kawasaki Z1R with 99,0000 commuter miles on it! Not sure but that seems like a pretty fair amount of miles. Didn't know Kawi's had it in them ;)

    Some of my dad's bikes....

    This is a bike my dad had when I was a very young boy. It was a 1969 Benelli Wards/Riverside 125cc 2 stroke. (Not his actual bike but the only photo I could find.) When I was about 14 y/o, he got a Suzuki GS850GLS along with his buddy. Matching bikes...cute huh? They had Vetter fairings...

    FJR Sighting - Black - Los Angeles 100 Freeway...

    Nice bike. All black. Not sure what year(s) that is. Stock pipes. Had the side bags on. Carefully splitting lanes in typical horrible LA traffic. Any of us? Edit - Geez fat fingers and typing too fast. Meant "This" morning and 110 Freeway.

    SS 1000 Question...

    Can I have people sponsor my ride and then give all the proceeds to charity? I want to dedicate my upcoming ride to a dearly departed old friend. He was my fathers best friend and was like a second dad to me. Him and my dad both had bikes and used to ride together all the time. They once...

    Picking up a new GPS Early this Evening...

    I know everyone swears by the 550. Has anyone had success with the 665? This is assuming money was not an issue. Thanks all, B

    Macna Apparel

    I'm not affiliated with Twisted Throttle or Macna in any way. And I'm not endorsing Macna products. This info just popped up in my inbox and it looks like really nice stuff. Does anyone have any experience with it - good or bad? Click this shiat, yo!

    Datel on a 2010

    Got it all hooked up! Works great! For reference for anyone with a 2010, when cruising around the freeway at about 75 to 85, the meter typically reads a hair over 14 volts. (14.0X) If this has been covered already, my apologies. These readings are with no other electronic farkles running...
