  1. Lane splitting will limit the size ST, but the larger STs are considerably more comfortable for 2 up riding. The vfr 800 seems to fit the smaller ST bill. Also, Honda is clearing out the vfr1200 at really low prices. If a larger ST fits the bill, you can't go wrong with a Concours 14 or FJR. If money is not a big consideration, the BMW k1600 is very nice.
  2. The modifier of this bike proves a point: The difference between ingenuity and stupidity is that ingenuity has limits.
  3. If so, it needs to come with a get out of jail free card.
  4. Way too many hippies in the world today for there to be another 2 stroke motorcycle.
  5. The way things are headed, you will be able to get good M tickets for $10 soon.
  6. Nice ride. Now that you are back to riding, please don't post anymore photos of your ”thumb”.
  7. I am most concerned with drivers turning left while I am coming from the opposite direction. This is one of the most common causes of fatal motorcycle accidents in this country. (This is similar to what happened in this video, but the Brits don't like to drive on the right side of the road.)
  8. Many moons ago, I had Shadow Sabre. The oil change on that bike is easy. While your at it, I would also change the final drive gear oil. You can do both within 10 to 15 minutes. Welcome to the forum.
  9. She was a ground breaking female comedian, and she had some great interviews on the Howard Stern Show.
  10. That road is awesome. I love the 360 degree bridges.
  11. LBTS GLWS. The FJRs are good bikes.
  12. Flat tax based on revenues for corporations and a flat tax based on personal income is as fair as it can get. One thing that gets lost in these debates is the ever increasing value of government expenditures. The expenditures should be capped to a % of GDP or current spending levels with an increase equal to inflation. With a fiscally responsible government, there is a deceased need for additional new taxes. The entitlements will also need to be addressed, as they are an ever increasing % of total government expenditures. Unless all of these items are addressed, they will make us a less competitive economy in the future.
  13. What is Uncle Sam's fair share of Burger King’s money? It's funny to see people get mad about this issue. The individuals that get mad also don't want to pay higher taxes, but they will want to create more bureaucracy to prevent corporate inversions. This is free market economics 101. It is beyond time to simplify the tax code and streamline our bloated government.
  14. Wish I could go. There is some pretty riding down there.
  15. I will be there in either medium or medium fast group (which ever is smaller). I have noticed that there is nothing in your disclaimer that covers hangovers. So say that I have a few too many beers the night before. Can I hold you liable for my hangover? I don't think that personal responsibility has any place in today's society.
  16. Wait for market correction, then invest in Vanguard index funds.
