  1. I bought one of these for my son's 11th birthday. It's cool enough that I'm buying another for myself. They'll be great for the bike trail in the metroparks or my girl and I going to Put it Bay.
  2. I was watching for the bottom, and pulled the trigger of a few that I believe will prove wise. There were other that will probably turn out great, but at time seemed too risky and I was skeert.
  3. I've never heard them other than a skit on the Chapelle Show.
  4. Crashes are temporary events that present more opportunity (upside) than bull markets. You need the guts to pull the trigger when the sky is falling, and some dry powder ($ to invest).
  5. I'm not expecting a crater, but there will be dips. I'll be buying if it does crater.
  6. Nasdaq is back i positive territory for 2020, and the S&P is within 8%. That's pretty impressive, all things considered.
  7. My ultimate 2 up tourer would be the BMW K1600 GTL. For 1 up touring I already have my ideal bike.
  8. It in great shape, nice leather, all the armor is there. Size 42, cut for a slim build. It's been sitting in my closet. Pickup in N Ridgeville.

    Riding a grom to the top of the Cherohala would be... painful.

    When I was riding 12-15k/year (for 15 years) of hardcore twisties, I was getting some serious nerve issues in my clutch hand. It's not as bad now because I have less time to ride, but I still have nerve issues. Things like DCT and quick shifters will extend my riding career 👍
  12. You can use a heat gun or a lighter. These would be handy for repairs in the field. I'm going to use them for my GPS connectors.
  13. I didn't know these were a thing until last week. They look perfect for motorcycle applications. I ordered some and I'll be trying them out.
  14. @theroamr and I passed through woodsfield a few hours ago.
  15. You could check completed listings on eBay and look at just the ones that actually sold.
  16. Prob not, but it would tour 4000 miles 1up just fine, and carve up corners like a sport bike.
  17. Just don't ride my beemer. I'd hate to see you sell the Honda.

    The fastest pass I ever did on the dragon was on that CB500x. The suspension was terrific for those tight turns.
  19. Medina is close-ish. They are quick.

    I briefly owned the Street Rod version of the V Rod. It had a shorter wheelbase, mid controls, a higher seat, and Showa suspension. The riding position felt pretty similar to a Street Triple...riding it felt like strapping 200 lbs of unnecessary steel to a ST. The steering was sloooow, the brakes were garbage, and the power delivery was very peaky. It did have good ground clearance & was reasonably planted in corners, but you had to pick your line early. It was definitely designed by someone that had little experience with sporty motorcycles.
  21. They could have raised prices, but I've probably had them change 20 tires and it's always been $25 off the bike.
  22. $25 per tire off the bike
