My AE has been neglected, that's for sure. Just sitting gathering dust over with the lawn mowers and my dirt bike. I felt really bad it sitting all these months. Well, my other project was sitting at an out of state airport getting an interior installed, so I wasn't doing much flying. Then I...

A good friend of mine here in Indiana inherited a restored 1948 Vincent Rapide from his uncle near Toronto. He's at a loss as how to go about getting it transferred legally and physically into the US. The plan is to get it registered and licensed so I can ride it a little.... before going into...

Back in 2007, it seems there was a major enforcement action on the Dragon. Is that still going on? Are there still 10 - 15 cops waiting for any reason to stop vehicles on the Tail of the Dragon? I know the Dragon is quite a ways from JC, but we were contemplating going over there on Friday...

I hope that all of us here riding Super Sport Touring motorcycles practice and preach "share the road". I was going to share the thought on the Goldwing forums, but there are just too many. And as we all know, often the people on the forums are usually the ones who already practice good group...

So, much like Wheatie, I rounded that big bend this year. Perhaps that worked to my advantage (although the AARP mailings have been driving me nuts. What a waste of paper...). Geico had my FJR and Progressive had my WR250F (streetable). Progressive had both bikes a couple years ago. I also have...

A married man left work early one Friday, but instead of going home, he spent the weekend riding with his motorcycle boys. When he finally returned home on Sunday late afternoon, his wife didn't get on his case, but made him an offer: "How would you like it if you didn't see me for a couple of...

The Goldberg Brothers The four Goldberg brothers, Lowell, Norman, Hiram, and Max, invented and developed the first automobile air conditioner. On July 17, 1946, the temperature in Detroit was 97 degrees. The four brothers walked into old man Henry Ford's office and sweet-talked his...

I know it's old news to a few of you here on the forum, but Gary McCoy has moved from U Motors to Mondak Motorsports in Sidney, Montana. When I saw at the tail end of the 'UMotors" thread (discussing Gary's departure) that a few of you had been doing business with him recently, I thought I'd...

For those of you planning on riding 160 between Pagosa Springs and Durango, please mind the boys in Brown. If the rest of the week is anything like today, 160 will be repleat with troopers spoiling your fun. There is a cell number posted on the sides of the road and if a civilian uses it, a...

Indiana BMV sucks. Yeah, I screwed up and had an outdated insurance card during my accident. Yeah the officer at the scene wrote the wrong production year of my car down on the accident report. Fine. I've had my insurance company FAX the information 4 times and I've called 6 times, finally to...

AvWeb's B2 crash report with video of the actual crash in Guam.

From an article on Gizmodo.

Comply Linky Gizmodo Review iLounge Review Anyone try them yet? I have several sets of foams for my ER-6i's to go through before I make the jump. But 48 db of noise reduction is pretty impressive. Comparable to any Bose product for $80? Hmmmmm....

I saw a couple thumb's up posts about Leo Drolet and his pegs, but there don't appear to be any pics that I can find. Anyone want to share some snaps and give us some details, please?

LED LED LED... that's about all you hear these days. I've been waiting for LEDs to get to the point to where they are commonly used for general lighting (FJR headlights?!?!?). Then along comes this new little gem that might even compete with HIDs when they get it perfected. Watch the CNET vid...

The damage to the car is worse than it looks. That wheel isn't actually part of my car any more. Probably totalled the kid's Regal that pulled out and hit me, but my car will more than likely be just under the mark for a trip to the salvage yard. Nobody injured, either. I tried to avoid the...

From Consumerist.com: Better stock up for those rally film pacs!

Saw this on Engadget. I don't own a Scala, but thought some of you might already. Evidently the older Q's can be "upgraded" so you can talk bike to bike (as well as bluetooth your phone and other stuff). Gives you about 1500 feet bike to bike. My AE sports a RINO GMRS with an Autocom SPA...
