I've seen candid shots of her not made up and she's still a doll. Sop her up with a biscuit nom nom

Most people aren't that intelligent...

Yeah, I wouldn't actually say that...my point was really that it's easier for the LEO to deduce a rock flew up the road that a random spark plug. Especially if it's a common thing for someone to use. Don't worry...I'm not going around chucking rocks at cars because the cut me off...just the ones who try to hit me and then taunt me when I've done absolutely nothing to provoke it. This has only ever happened this one time so I'm probably carry extra weight for nothing. I'd have to be really hacked off to risk arrest or even being shot by the asshole. Circumstances would have to be just right. I'd rather follow them to their destination, let them know I now know where they live and let them stew on that for awhile.

Yeah but "officer, I saw that rock get kicked up by another car and go right into the other"

Bring it. Tired of cager tough guys who's bravado lasts only as long as they stay protected in their car. I'm gonna have to get that Innov front/rear camera. Then when people pull that shit it'll be posted on here, social media, and YouTube along with their plate number. Might even forward a copy to the popo.

I can handle mistakes but purposely putting my life and well-being at risk...not acceptable. Pocket and tank bag each have a golf ball sized rock.

Personally, I find FI to be easier to work with because you can use a power commander or flash to adjust. Try pulling all the carbs and cleaning them and/or jetting. Not fun. I think up to 2008(?) on the second gen there was a problem with frames cracking at the weld.

I would drink Emily's bathwater...

OMW home from work today, traffic was fairly heavy on the interstate, I'm in the middle lane of 3 lanes, about 1.5 car lengths behind the car in front of me. A shitbox car driven by a young black guy (not racist, just the facts) came up on my left, drove behind the car in front of him, then just came over in my lane, damn near clipping my front. Obviously he knew I was there, he had just pulled up next to me. So I proceed to lay on my horn and of course he flips ME off multiple times, even doing it out the window. Then he slows way down so I go around to the right where he proceeds to honk at me, flip me off, dance around in the car and laugh. That was enough for me. I motioned for him to pull over so I could break his fucking jaw. Of course, the coward doesn't continues with his antics (I'm boxed in at this point) until he gets off the interstate at the next exit. If I didn't have to be home to meet with a painter, I'd have followed his ass and handed it to him. Fucker. So I continued on... Not 2 minutes later, it's 4 lanes and i'm in the center left lane and the left most lane ends ahead. Traffic thins somewhat because I passed an interstate junction. I get to the point where the left lane ends and suddenly out of nowhere, this asshat old white guy in a minivan passes me ON THE FUCKING SHOULDER and cuts me off - damn near hitting me again! I'm fucking beside myself because there was no one behind me for 400+ feet and I'm doing about 75mph. He easily could've gotten in behind me and there was a line of cars in front of me so it's not like he was going to get far by getting ahead of me. So again I lay on the horn and he just waves his hand dismissively like he didn't give a flying fuck. I about came unglued. Even the trucker in the right lane, who I know witnessed the other jackhole, honked his horn as if to say WTF? If I had a big rock in my pocket, he would have at least one less intact window. Then I would've beat his ass with it. I passed him and looked over and of course he just ignored me. I looked over at the trucker and he gave me the 'sorry, people are assholes' gesture. WTF is wrong with people? I don't get pissed too easily but both of these guys were very purposeful in what they did - it's not like it was accidental. Now I'm gonna have to go to the gym and fuck up some weights.

pwned!

Done...had no issues and Apple has corrected the issue. At least it didn't catch fire.

I ended up getting a Vantrue N1 because they had a deal on it for $60 on amazon yesterday. I figure for $60 I can see how I like it and if I want something a little better, I can always upgrade later. This one has pretty good reviews though.

Good. As moderator it's part of your job to be there to moderate us off the site... @Tonik can do it but we need someone to moderate the hate.

Looks fine now from my iPad. I was on my work Lenovo laptop originally

My solution still works... https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT204691

Are/were you running soft compound performance tires? I honestly don't ride aggressively enough anymore to wear the piss out of tires - especially ones that are more touring oriented. Oh, and your linked is all jacked up like your tires

He must be on android. Hope it doesn't catch fire.

It's in the middle of the thread, maybe a mod can add it to the OP

Shit @Tonik , we failed to put a disclaimer in our threads Vacation time for me is going to be real slim...the wife and I are going diving in Indonesia next Feb and will be gone over 3 weeks which chews up most of my days. It'll be worth though, we are going to stop in Dubai for a few days too on the way back.

Awesome bike...not comparable to the Connie IMO which is more comparable to the FJR. 1st gens are carb'd and have a more relaxed riding position than gen 2's. Pulls hard all the way to the top and easy to loft the front with just a twist. Wind protection is OK, can be made better with a larger screen if you want. No hard pannier options that I'm aware of but several saddlebag solutions out there. Pretty sure you can mount a topcase on there though I never had one on mine. The best thing is you can find lightly used ones for a song. Case in point that I saw over on the FZ1 forums...has upgraded front/rear suspension, jetted and in nice shape: https://www.cycletrader.com/listing/2002-Yamaha-Fz1-118987390

Get the new apple watch...has built in GPS so you don't need your phone with you to track your distance/pace etc. So, spend $500 more, problem solved.

Looks like pics work via link at least...a little Photoshop on this one to add some speed
