Took the wheels off the Versys. Went to IP for a pair of Roadsmarts 3 to replace the knobbies. Bought new helmet. Expensive trip over $600 for everything.

I bet you hear that a lot.

Congratulations, wish I could have retired at your age. Have fun picking out a new bike. I retired last year and bought a retirement bike too, it's been a blast.

Got the FJR out for a test ride today to see how the changes to the bike worked. So much smoother throttle after the fueling adjustment. New tinted visor on the shoei worked great too. Now we just need a good hard rain to wash away the remaining cinders.

For its 25th season, I finally gave it a name.

Definitely the red FJR. I know the current owner of it, but it’s all the way in Ukraine. I sold it to a guy in PA, he hit a deer with it. I tried to buy it from his insurance company but it went to a copart auction and it was sold before I even knew. Then months later the guy in Ukraine who won it on copart contacted me because my name was written on the bottom of the custom seat. I know it was nothing fancy, but that bike means more to me because of where all I’ve been on it.

I installed a Chigee on the RT. I wish it was a little bigger, but it looks like OEM kit and functions alright.

I had the same issues with a wireless CarPlay adapter for my truck. What I found out was if my phone was connected to more than one Bluetooth device, it would cause the disconnect issue.

Engine stand and hardware purchased to facilitate the internals swap for the Bonneville. Also received the 90amp alternator for the Goldwing. Left me stranded last fall. F'ing Hondas.

Wish I still had my old RD400.

If dirt bikes count my 1996 kx500

I got the bike out of hibernation and worked on a few things. Got my wiring a little better for my CarPlay unit, checked the air filter, and worked on a fueling adjustment to make the throttle a little better. Ready for more sunny days..

I informed my company on Friday that I am leaving effective 3/14. I did give them an option to pay to retain me as a (very) part time consultant for 90 days to ease the transition. 50/50 if I want to stay on as a consultant or just be done. Wheels are in motion.

It's official. I have informed the company I am retiring the end of April.
