Best wishes for a speedy recovery!

^ what he said. Especially with this being your primary mode of transportation.

Congrats Jim!

I hear they require way less torque!

Hello!

I can meet up, but I don't get off work until noon on Friday.

Is it a waste taking a dual sport to this event? I was planning on trailering down a KTM350 and an FZ1 down for this event, but work obligations prevented me from going. I was thinking I could ride with the KTM for most of the time, but I wanted to ride Cherohala and some other nearby roads on something sporty.

How do you like the bar end mirrors? I am thinking about getting a set.

Hello

Those dealing in child pornography should be put in general population. They should not be given special privileges and put in separate locations.

Hopefully, they will be as efficient in limiting firearms as they are balancing the budget.

Nice collection. Variety is the spice of life. N + 1.

Thanks Tim! I ordered a set for the FZ1 for $225.

There are roads outside of Ohio? You can tell spring is near. This thread is becoming more contentious than the 2nd amendment thread. There are many bikes for many purposes, and most of them are fun.

Unfortunately, not enough mc or cage drivers understand this.

It may be advisable to get uninsured/under insured motorist added to your policies. Both of my parents have been hit while riding, and both of the drivers had state minimum liability insurance coverage. Both of my parents needed their insurance policies to cover their medical bills and motorcycle losses (above the state minimum limits).

I rode the FZ1 yesterday for about two hours without any breaks. It was actually more comfortable(for the ride duration) than I was anticipating. One big difference between it and a sport touring bike: wind protection. I wore the same layers that I would have worn on the Connie. I was pretty cold during the 2nd hour. It was a good day to ride, considering that it is still February,.

But did it take the same amount of time to get there?

It was parked in the street. I rode it to Iron Pony to get a part for one of the PW80s. The Connie does not like the garage. (And it has bags to carry motorcycle parts).

Kids bikes repaired and ready for spring

There are better deals to be had on similar age FJRs, Connies, and VFRs. I used to be a Honda motorcycle guy, but when I went to a sport tourer, it was between the Kawasaki and Yamaha (The VFR 1200 was just coming out & ST1300 was long in the tooth).

It wasn't about me. I want to be able to take my daughters or wife on long rides. I am cool with riding the Connie across the country while riding solo.

I sat on the new Goldwing with each of my daughters this afternoon. I definitely see one of them in the future. It will probably be a few years.

Congrats on the new opportunity!
