They don't even look that bold this year...

I get paid to pass gas! :)

That's what it means.

People are funny, even people who should know better. I have a buddy who has ridden for 20+ years, at the time he owned a Ninja 1000 (the standard bike) and a Harley XR1200. He kept going on and on about how his Ninja 1000 had such great torque, he could start out at a stoplight in sixth gear...

Not long enough. Eight days total, three and a half on the way there, one and a half to tool around key West, three back. Long days! Didn't help that my uncle took Ambien at night and couldn't wake up early, but we had intercoms and talked and listened to music and audio books the whole way...

fallenarch - I remembered that you'd upgraded your suspension - what did that whole package cost you, and where (what site) would you recommend a start when shopping around? I took WAY too long to upgrade the suspension on my DR - I grew up on bikes and can pretty much ride anything, but I...

Man, part of me thinks I'd love a ride from Alaska to Key West, and maybe someday I'll do that, but I don't have enough vacation to do that and enjoy it, so after retirement I'll look into it. Probably do that trip on a Goldwing or an R1200GS though, and take the wife with me! For now, I took...

On to motorcycles. The speed ratings of the tires are as noted above. Motorcycle tires use either the speed rating in the body of the designation or in the load index and speed symbol. Speed ratings are European Commission for Europe Regulation 30 (ECE 30) European Indoor Wheel Test Standards...

Post 1991 Speed Ratings: There are numerous speed ratings below M, but rarely shown in lists. The Z is always in the description, as in P225/50ZR16. All other speed ratings are shown in the tire's load index & speed symbol description. P225/50R16 89W M 81 mph SCTA - Not allowed - lowest speed...

I'm 250-270#, but ride with loaded luggage on trips whenever I can. I'm 6'4" and I've done the lowered Buell pegs (for a little more leg room) and the ABM LSL handle bar which rises and rearsets the handlebars a LOT. More than anything, sportbike riding take a month or so of riding for your...

When I got my bike I wanted to make it as much a sport-TOURER as I could, I really liked where ldryder went with his bike, many of my mods are along the same lines. I have a Corbin saddle and the rear with the back rest which I'll probably be selling in favor of a Russel Day-Long, if I'm going...

I use the X mount from Rammount too, and have a battery tender SAE to USB connector for my shorty iPhone 6+ cord. Using a small phone now feels like I'm using one of my kids Leap Frog toys. They're a joke. The size of the 6+, for me, is the perfect blend of an iPad mini functionality and a...

Well, Dave, he posted this 6+ years ago. I hope he got it fixed!:type: (I take no responsibility for misspellings in internet memes used in this thread)

The oRg is on my "daily sites" bookmark. I'd check it 'till it came back!

Lots of guys ordering from https://www.chromeburner.com/about-us on the advrider forum getting free worldwide shipping with no hiccups reported and literally saving $100 on pairs of Sidi boots and Dainese jackets and more. Thought I'd pass the info along. I ordered some cold weather gloves.
