    Owl strike

    Well that would get your attention in a hurry. Luckily for you it was not a direct shot in the face. Ride safe my friend, and stay out of those bird sanctuaries.

    Honda nc750x as second bike

    Everything which I have seen on YouTube and read. All give it a nod for an urban commuter. The Honda that is. If you want something to change things up with the FJR. Then I would steer you to a 2015 and up Versys 650. The power will not blow you away, but it handles very well in spirited riding...

    FJR Has Gotten Too Heavy. What To Buy?

    The Versys 1k is a great machine to consider. I would also suggest its smaller sibling (650). I personally have one and I can easily run at those speeds all day. The bike still weighs nearly 500lbs. But is very capable machine and handles extremely well. Maintenance is a breeze and also runs on...

    Riding motorcycle with child

    They do make various harnesses to tether a child to the rider. That will at least keep the child from sliding off the back. Look at third world countries. You've got a family of 5 riding on a bike, along with a chicken or goat strapped to it. Not making a joke here. We here in the states get to...

    Let's see what jacket you're using.

    Frank Thomas waterproof textile jacket is my go to in the winter months. Keeps me both warm and dry without even using the liner.

    Little comparison, V-strom, 900gt

    I will throw another gem into the mix. How about the Versys 650LT? I am obviously biased, but my 2016 650LT is a great bike. Has plenty of useable power to cruise at HWY speeds and more. Plus it's pretty light at 496 fully dressed. You can pick up a gently used for around 5.5k. So it won't break...

    Helmet Air Conditioning

    Contact just about any American company's customer service... you're talking to someone in India. Really? Thanks for pointing that out. Many corporations do use India as an out side source, but not all. My personal experiences have been aweful. While attempting to work with the customer...

    What's the Weather like where YOU are today?

    It was a cool 82 today. I must remind myself to be patient until things begin to warm up a bit around here.
