    Bates light-duty boots, $50 shipped

    Saw these deals on slickdeals.net and couldn't pass. These are really more like tall sneakers (trainers for you Brits) than real motorcycle boots. They have only minimal ankle and heel protection (more than sneakers, of course). The first 'Beltline' model has a decent heel cup and stiff'ish'...

    Jet ski with Busa engine

    Believe it or not, my wife brought this to my attention. Jet ski with Busa engine I love how he lays over the front when launching it. Sort of like I do automatically when cranking on the Big Bus.

    Quick follow-up. Bike fever did eventually get the best of me. Bought a bright yellow 2000 Triumph Daytona 955i for $2500 cash. Practically new! Only 3200 miles on it. Garage kept, no scrapes, no scuffs. Figure I can sell it for at least what I paid after the summer. My son from Ohio is...

    Motobot

    http://www.popularmechanics.com/technology/robots/a28839/yamaha-robot-motorcycle-motobot-race/ Looks like motobot can't hang off the side, but still pretty interesting.

    Honda T360 truck

    Thought this was fun and interesting. Probably quite a collector's item. Honda's First Car Was This Weird Little Pickup PM says 'weird' but I think it's cool.

    Haven't seen one for sale anywhere! Pretty rare bike. The R1100, R1150, and R1200 series are prevalent around here. Would definitely consider and R1100S for a good price.

    Not ever sure what this is, but I do have a center stand on my Busa. Lost the belly fairing, but like the convenience of the stand.

    Thanks for all your responses, guys! Really enjoyed reading them. Though the Connie 14 I found was (is) a bargain, I've talked myself out of it. Not that I can't afford to own both, but I just don't want to own another expensive motorcycle for the amount of riding I do nowadays. I can justify...

    Crappy Winter Weather Meanderings, Thinking About A Concours, Talk Some Sense Into Me

    Totally bored. Weather here is awful. Burning my vacation at home while I figure out where my next job is (not worried). Spent the entire day looking at used bikes, like I need another one in the stable, but I do want something cheap to put up at my mother's house for when I'm up there. Was...

    where does this plug go?

    Thanks, guys. Gen I Busa. Was pretty sure associated with coolant system. Would that be LEFT or RIGHT fairing??? Thanks!

    where does this plug go?

    Just had the fairings off for an oil change and clutch bleed, and found this plug after putting the fairings back on. Pretty sure it goes to the cooling system. It says LLC on the top. Where does it go? Which fairing do I have to pull off, clutch or throttle side? Thanks!

    Dusted by a Vette

    Yeah, you really can't compete with a high-performance car in a turn under power. You may have lost the race, but not worth the danger. Still, I am very surprised your Busa couldn't catch up once straight. You must have been hitting 150 in third by that point.

    Father & Son

    My son came home from college, much happier now that we fixed the 'check engine' light on his new car. Needed to rearrange the garage, moving the motorcycles forward and the snow blower back by the door so we can get it when we need it. Of course, this prompted us to take the bikes for a...
