Sorry-- I was doing this on an iPhone, and meant to post on the technical/mechanical problems section. Thick fingers. No wonder I didn't find it posted there. Pilot error. Plus I didn't think of looking or searching here with the phone. Too hard to use. I need to get back on the bigger...

'13 FJR 5,000 miles. I bought it used a couple of months ago. I failed to notice black oily dust on bottom of final drive swing arm weep hole down the arm to the pumpkin. Checked fd oil level and it was a bit over full so let some out to proper level. Been maintaining my FJRs for 10 years or...

Sorry, I don't speak Oklahoman--- would somebody please translate what Peter just wrote?

Exclusive? As the Church Lady said, "Well, isn't that 'special'."

Traded the FJR and moved to a Super Tenere in hopes the neck and back problems don't show up on long rides. So, I will be hanging out on another forum most of the time. I still hope to ride the SW-FOG and Hooterville 400. This is a great forum with some really fine folks. I know: don't let...

Having a "white" Christmas just took on a new meaning....

While talking about my dogs and his dogs last night, I was showing one of my sons photos of Duke I had taken and telling him about him. It is a lucky man who is owned by a good dog.

When I retired, I went back to touring with Chip'n dales part time. Retirement is terrible.... I cry myself to sleep every night.

In that case, praying WON'T hurt and practicing WILL help. I say go for it. Just because you have it, doesn't mean you have to use it. Doesn't work the other way around. But please make sure (and I know you are smart enough to already know this) the gun is secured from kids and the friends...

One should consider the answer to this question before one goes to the trouble of deciding what/when/where one should carry for protection: Can I drop the hammer on the bad guy when it comes to it? If the answer is not "yes", or "I'll know for sure when it happens", then go to the end of...

What the above statement about acting a day earlier rather than a day late is good advice. Due to shortcoming of personal fortitude on my part, I failed to do so with my 14 year old Scottie 3 years ago. And while I was with her when she died in her bed at 4am, I know she suffered the 48 hours...

Grew up around them, because my dad was one of them, but I was never one of them. Lots of days I am grateful I get to be who I am because of them.

Thanks, I missed that. Sipping a couple of glasses after a hard days work is my excuse. ;) Paypal sent. :)

I lost my Scottie "Duncan" last December, so I have a little dog food cash left over. Please PM me with a Paypal account address. I'm sure he would have liked to help 'ol Duke out. :)

That's a castle? We have grain silos from the 1800's bigger than that around here. And why is there no beer on the tables? Is it in a "dry" county? Is Dry County/Ireland an oxymoron?

I'm surprised the judge didn't dismiss when the prosecutor couldn't present his first (and probably major) witness, the officer writing the ticket. Then, I'm surprised word didn't trickle down from the prosecutor's office to the officer's CO that somebody had some 'splaining to do for not...

Guinness, hell.... I just got a strong urge for a milk shake. :unsure:

Good New Year's resolution: Don't drink and drive, and get a finger wave sometime this year. :P

Sent you a PM.

Yep, drive sober. But guys, check your PSA sometime too. I know the new wisdom is it might be a waste, but I'd be pushing up daisies in a couple of years if I hadn't stayed on top of mine. Still could happen. So don't get caught with your diapers down. This PSA provided by zzzzip. We now...
