Pokey

My current bike is new, so it will just be plugged into the tender and ready to go at a moments notice anytime the weather breaks. I have a waterproof outlet to wire up and may do heated grips at the same time, other than that I think I am good for now.

NERDS!!!!

Nope.....not even close.

Comp-Tac makes really good shit!!!

Above 40 and the roads are dry and salt free......I am out riding.

Time for a Carfax.

Yup......I have known him for several years, he does not suffer fools nor does he mince his words.

And as you already know and realize, what's good better or best on paper....is not always factual.

Probably a Tiger 800 XC or FJ-09 might fit the bill for you, however the 2012 and up 650 runs pretty darn good in comparison to the first gen 650 Strom.

Yeah that is a good point, I hear the improvements have been well received.

Please report back on what you think, and installing an Apex trigger makes the M&P's arguably the best polymer pistols out there IMHO.

I would love one of those, I am a big M&P fanboy.

You need to update your bike pics in your signature.

Sorry but it is not that cut and dry, if it was we would all "as Christians" believe the same and do everything the same. As for what the Bible is quite clear on, once again it is all in how it is interpreted. Homosexuality is no different in the eyes of God than a lie, sin is sin to him.........man is incapable of not doing sin, but Jesus coming was the game changer. Why do you think there are so many denominations and "spin off beliefs" from the Roman Catholic Church and Judaism? Think about it this way.....if people actually followed the teachings of Christ in the Bible in their daily lives, there would be no need for all the other "man made" bullshit out there we are all subjected to non stop. Man does things for their own selfish reasons and means, this is nothing new nor will it ever stop. And if God is all knowing and you no longer associate yourself as a Christian, then would not God have known you were going to do that? So you now denounce Christ when you at one time accepted Christ, we may fall from grace but we never fully fall to the ground.

Meh......just people judging other people regardless of beliefs, it is what we do and have always done and will always continue to do. I could care less what somebody wants to believe in, as long as it is not mentally or physically hurting another. I think over time it is obvious that we all cannot "coexist" very well, mankind has become very good at not being very kind to one another.

Yes you do..........

So much thought and muscle memory into turning off a bike, when just a single turn of the key does it all.

Excellent choice if I do say so, and I am betting you will ride it much faster in the twisty stuff than you realize at this point. Be prepared to spend some money on aftermarket goodies, and boy do the Stroms have them.

Wabbit season!!!

No matter how you kill the engine, on most bikes you must still turn off the key in the ignition anyways to kill the lights and other electrical goodies.......seems counterproductive and pointless IMHO to do it another way.

I never understood for once second, why anyone would use anything other than the key "if your bike uses a key" to shut it off. Now the few times on my dirtbikes where I was about to drown my bike in a water crossing, now that is the only time I have EVER hit the kill switch on a motorcycle.

Sounds like a beater Dodge Neon would fit that bill nicely. LOL

You have to actually ride what is out there, to see what you like and appeals to ya.

If you put that Super Ten on a trailer, shame......shame.....shame......it is made to eat up the slab and off the slab, you are killing me.
