Life is too short to deal with a dick. Just go to another dealer. I personally have had good luck with IP. I have purchased alot of tires, parts, service, and gear there. I have never bought a bike from them.

Blue Ridge Parkway

Watch your speed on the Blue Ridge Parkway. It is 45mph, and it is patrolled by federal park ranges. The southern end of the Blue Ridge Pkwy has really scenic overlooks. The road is also in good condition.

There was more $ invested in cars sitting at that red light than I will ever see in my lifetime.

going to leave this right here...

 

So Tim, are you an HD filter fan? Do you have an anti-Rotella video also? At least we can agree that you have good tastes in motorcycles.

I will keep that video in mind when getting the next filter, but I have heard alot of good things about the Rotella. Oil threads/debates can always be the most entertaining to read. I can be opinionated, but not when it comes to oil. I just want a reliably running motorcycle.

Thread Hijackis now complete.

It's a $60 oil change in that liquid hoarding bitch, and that's doing it myself. 4.5 qts Mobile 1 full synthetic at 5 x $10 and a $8 kawi filter

Use Rotel T6 synthetic oil and use a Fram PH6017A oil filter. It will cost about half that much.

Note to self: Reset the GPS!

That max speed must have been before meeting up with the med-fast group. I don't recall our group going over the stated speed limit. That is my story, and I am sticking to it.

It will be much better when the feds finish taking over the nations entire health care system.

Welcome to OR

It was a beautiful riding day. Thanks to all the organizers, leads, and sweeps.

Welcome!

I would like to do some of these rides, but I will not be around that weekend. Any problems with sport-touring bikes on future rides?

I think my shirt may go for an epic ride this weekend.

Welcome to OR

I spoke too soon - now they've moved up our meeting to June 9th in California. So I won't even be able to ride to Chicago at all.

I'm bummed.

Do I have to turn in my SoreButtaPalooza shirt?

Have fun, guys.

Are you sure that you are feeling ok? I hear there will be a mean flu going around in approximately 4 weeks. It looks like you should use a few sick days.

I always proceed cautiously around the Amish buggies. However when we came across a bear in the NC mountains, it was a different story. Proceeded cautiously up to near the bear (about 10' from the edge of the road), then rolled on the throttle when we knew we could get past it.

There is currently a tornado warning in Logan. Maybe it will blow any gravel that is laying in the road.

Welcome

I definitely need to look into these. I need to upsize my micro SD card. I have been using the same 16gb card for years. I was thinking about putting in a 64gb card and put more of the music from my hard drive on there. There would still be plenty of room for photos.

New tires, valves checked, all new fluids, and new fork seals. I am almost ready to go. I need to increase the quantity of music on my phone and get an EZPass. I am going to ride into PA the week before, so I may ride over the PA turnpike and get an EZ Pass there. That will be a nice little 700 mile warm up weekend. I am getting stoked.

Welcome

Bbq, beer, and bikes. It doesn't get any better than the three B's. The trip is getting closer, but it is too far away.

The planet has been warming for a very long time. There is nothing that is going to change it. If you stopped 100% of all co2 emissions right this second, the earth is still going to warm up.
