    Sawtooth Mts.

    I am thinking about riding from Mountain Home Id through the Sawtooths on up to Mizzoula. For those of you that have been on those roads, how are they. I would think it would be a fairly slow ride with all of the motor homes. I think it is around 400 miles. Thanks, Greg

    What side of the lane do you ride in?

    When I am riding on a two lane road, I usually ride on the left side, I do this so that oncoming cars can see me if they decide to pass. On a recent trip with some friends, I got into a discussion with one of my friends about this. He insists it is safer to ride on the right side of the lane...

    FJR and BMW 1300

    Has anyone had any experience with the new BMW 1300? A buddy just bought one, because he thinks it can out run my FJR. I don't really give a shit if it can or not. It is a lot better looking bike than their opposing twins. But for $23,000 it has a lot of extras.

    hornet deer horn

    Has anyone mounted one of the Hornet deer horns on their bike? I want to mount one, but I don't want to drill a hole in the plastic. Had a couple of close calls this year, and the season isn't over yet. Thanks

    Audio vox and silinoid

    I am installing a Audio Vox CC in my 07 with ABS. How did you guys with 07s deal with installing the silinoid where so much space is taken up with the ABS. Thanks, Greg

    How long to install an Audio Vox CC

    I know the Audio Vox has been hashed here over and over, I was trying to get an idea, how long it takes a competent wrench to install one. The guy who installed my PC III and some other farkles has never installed one. I am sure he can do a great job, but I am just trying to get an idea as to...

    PNWFO

    Where's the pictures? Hay, Ralph, Marty, Rob, Jon, Jim. How about posting up some of those pictures of the ride home. Rob, I would think you have a bunch of them, since you had two cameras going at one time. Would like to see the movies again. Anyone up for a ride this coming weekend?

    Russell backrest

    I am going to be sending my seat to Russell soon, and am trying to decide if the extra $250 for the backrest is worth the money. Seems like it would be easier on the back on day long rides. What do you guys with this option think? Thanks

    PCIII and warrenty

    I had a PCIII installed on my 07 along with having it remapped, trying to help the serging issue. I am going to take my bike to the dealers, and see what they can do. Does anyone know if I should take the PCIII of before taking it in? I don't know if it will void the warrenty. Thanks

    mail order Russell seats

    I searched, but didn't find an answer to this specific question. For you guys who mail orderd a Russell day long, do you think you got as comfortable seat as if you went and got fitted? They don't have a spot open to get fitted until October, and I know what it is going to be doing weather...

    vstream sizes

    I have been searching for a aftermarket windshield for my 07. I am going to get a vstream. I see where the cal-sci and C Bailey's come in different sizes, but I haven't been able to find if the vstrean does. Does it?

    Stumbling problem solved.

    I just had a PCIII installed on my 07, along with a G2 throttle tube. The bike runs great. The shop where I took the bike installed the PC then put the bike on the dyno and tweeked it until they got it running just right. I took the bike out two days ago on the same ride I was having such...
