  1. Most of us have partaked "Silly Riding" in some sort. Idiots are gonna be idiots,and the best prevention IMO is to be welcoming and not alienating to inexperienced riders. You see a new rider, help them out and try to steer them towards safe riding techniques. Squids are inevitable though. I just avoid their top locations, highway/city/parks. Theres plenty of motorcycle practices I don't agree with but that's the rider's choice. Some choose to not wear a helmet and speed excess of 100mph, others choose to pass on double yellow. It's not a perfect system, but you gotta work with what you got.
  2. Pulled the clutch lever off, cleaned it, and reinstalled. Now, no more squeaking.
  3. +1 on this. @Danimal correct me if I am wrong, but I would say an RX3 is more adventure bike and CRF is more dual sport. You don't see too many CRF250L's with aluminum cases on them.
  4. Great ride today guys. I had a blast. Sucks you didn't have time to ride 536, but I was thinking about you while I rode 536 with practically no traffic
  5. As someone who switched from Iphone to Android, I will say there are some growing pains when transitioning.(Like getting rid of your iMessage account stuff so other iphones recognize you can no longer accept iMessage) Biggest issue I see from your list is the Apple Watch compatibility. They make great android watches, it just sucks since you already invested in the Apple Watch. I am rocking the S8+ right now, had a Note5 before that, and LG G Series before that. I am very happy with the Samsung products. Being that your a techie guy, I see where you will enjoy the customization abilities of the android. The one plus of the new phone plans, no contract is locking you in for 2 years so worse case scenario, you pay off the phone and switch back, sell the phone to recoup any losses.
  6. Ok, I am officially in. I'll meet you guys in New Concord. Got a fellow FJR buddy coming with his FZ1.
  7. THIS. Keeps me thinking....What the hell is he pointing at?
  8. I used to have a PF9. I put several thousand rounds through it without a failure. I switched to a Bodyguard 380 now, wish I would have stayed in 9mm caliber.
  9. This. I'm not a fan of using the phrase "Diet". They are temporary IMO. It takes a lifestyle change to see lasting results.
  10. No kids, no commitments outside M-F work week, and 4+ weeks of vacation. I devote almost all my free time to motorcycling. Probably explains my bias and struggle to comprehend giving up motorcycling. I am truly not sure what I would do without it.
  11. Well my progress has really stalled in the last month or so. I haven't gained any, just not losing like I was. Not eating right being the main factor, but when I'm on vacation, I'm on vacation damnit lol. Still sitting at 220 right now. November 1st will one year since I started eating healthy and exercising. My winter plan is to get my running stamina up and be able to run a 5k in the spring. I thought I'd never say that, but yeah I wanna run an event.
  12. My current plan is to go down a couple days early and hit the Barber museum.
  13. and I posted the same thing for less than $9 . It would work fine with a crescent wrench.
  14. I will be out riding in SEO Saturday. Still trying to juggle 3 different groups of people wanting to ride.
  15. I just saw this mentioned on a Ducati forum.. http://www.ebay.com/itm/Suzuki-GSXR-750-24mm-Allen-Wrench-Axle-Tool-112611-001-/152016800400?epid=758277934&hash=item2364e84a90:m:mSTd-LrfPw-xMtuf-EsL5tg&vxp=mtr
  16. Most 24mm hex is needed for front axle, which is hollow, so you can use these, but I don't think it will work in your situation. https://www.amazon.com/Motion-Pro-08-0397-Chrome-Axle/dp/B009D3FPSM
  17. I got one of the Smith 22A's and it's a blast to shoot. Accurate, not picky on ammo and I even threw my red dot on it one time. I usually let people who are new to shooting try it out first. Not as intimidating as others.
  18. I never dreamed it would be that hard to find a 24mm hex socket. I just did some searching and there isn't too many options let alone reasonably cheap options. https://store.snapon.com/Hand-Sockets-Socket-Motorcycle-1-2-drive-24-mm-external-hex-Suzuki-Hayabusa--P642959.aspx
  19. Before everyone gets all butthurt, yes the track is cool, yes it helps hone certain skills. I want to do a track day. It's just not for some people, much like dual sport riding or touring. I hone my skills out riding the dangerous and spooky mountain roads, where a perfect apex is laughable in most cases. It's not ideal, but I have fun. The skills I've gained from riding on the street works great for the street. To each their own, just don't look down from your high horse when someone thinks different.
