    Chicagoland get together July 11st

    Like it or not, these two sentences may help keep attendence to a minimum. Unless of course, you're not twisting our arms. I can tell you what I do for Ride For Kids and you can decide to either join me or give me a few bucks to donate if you are not going to be able to make it your self...

    I am 38, and have ridden legally for 22 years. Recovering squid, as well.

    Have you ever seen an FJR do this?

    Ah, the dangers of front brake application.

    How not to strip your oil drain threads.

    I have about ten oil changes completed on my '07, with the original washer still on duty. I am comfortable with this. I do understand that others like both the peace of mind factor of installing a purdy new washer, as well as the "crush" of a new washer to ensure its tightness. Your mileage...

    Pizza Meet 3/28/09

    Holy cow, Pete! One (make this two) whole replies! There are some great folks on this forum. What - if it ain't at a bar-restaurant or a ride to Starved Rock, nobody shows? I would love to see some of you again! Try to ride to the pizza meet. It makes it more funnerer (unless you're a...

    Lowest temp you have ridden 10 plus miles in

    November 2007 had a morning commute (11 miles) to work at 12 degrees. Of course, my dash read 16 deg. (which is its minimum). Stock screen with no heated gear. My max speed was 75 mph or so. It was misery.

    wheatonFJR goes down!

    Mark, It's unfortunate that you had to "lay 'er down". When's the benefit ride gonna be? What tires were you running? Were they up to temp.? Was the road surfacechip sealed/strewn with excess gravel? The shadows in the pics look long. Morning or late afternoon? Oh, yeah...glad you're all...

    ABS light

    Yep, my rear wheel sensor allen head bolt is missing altogether! That'll do it.

    ABS light

    I'll check that on mine, Dragonchef. I've been having the same issue - ABS light comes on solid after quick accel/high speed run. First time I saw this happen was on the racetrack, but that was under extreme braking/chassis bouncing. Now I do not brake at all before light comes on...will...
