  1. Yamaha Bolt, Wet Weight: 542 lbs. Maybe it's a cruiser thing
  2. They're not alone... http://www.autoblog.com/2015/03/30/bmw-motorcycle-recall/ http://www.asphaltandrubber.com/recall/bmw-r1200rt-suspension-fiasco-conclude-month/
  3. I'm glad I don't drink coffee. I'm already running late almost every morning anyways. I wouldn't have time to do all this stuff. I like my morning drink: protein scoop, ice, water, shake. Done.
  4. Good luck finding a YZR-M1. Not too many local dealers have a MotoGP bike for sale.
  5. Yeah, if comparing dry weights. Real world scenario where a GS had giant panniers, top case, and a zillion other farkles, it's a completely different story. The key is the sportster can be heavy cause it isn't supposed to go offroad...
  6. Article from 2011....
  7. Whatever makes you sleep at night...
  8. Well it's all gone downhill now. Bridgestone has went and removed $50 from the cards that have already been delivered. The whole ordeal seems fishy to me. I feel like it was almost deliberate to hype sales. So if you didn't use them right away, they reduced it back to $50. Oh well, it was fun while it lasted. And to the mister goody people, get off your high horse, we've all taken advantage of a big corporation in our lives.
  9. I thought the point of owning a GS was to take it to Starbucks?!
  10. Why do you need your mirrors to fold? Do you park street side that much? I get it, it's cool, just never seen the use of it. When I worked at a dealership, the Caddillac's had the mirrors turn down when in reverse. That was kinda nice to watch out for curb checks.
  11. I wouldn't own a Shinko for any kind of riding above cruiser pace on pavement. Maybe for a dual sport or something of that nature. I've seen enough of their street tires to know their junk. Just to save 50 or 60 bucks? No thanks, I'll take a Bridgestone, Dunlop, Pirelli, or Michelin. I have also seen enough delaminating Metzlers to stay away.
  12. If you get the bike, I would ride it with those tires and see how they feel. If they stick and feel great, try to get some miles out of them. I just wouldn't push them first time out.
  13. Saturday was some great riding weather. I made it through McConnelsville about 1pm. Met up with @2talltim and ate at the River Queen Tavern in Malta.
  14. I was surprised to see Zarco do so well at the beginning. Rossi still has it, but Maverick is gonna be tough to beat.
  15. +1, but I ain't telling. It kills the anticipation for everyone
  16. Just finished setting up my Spot Gen3 tracker.
  17. I'm just gonna take the gift cards and buy more tires. The funny part is Bridgestone was advertising a $50 per set rebate. When you submit it, the confirmations says $100. Got one of my $100 cards last week.
  18. Fill out the 2nd one. Bridgestone approved mine twice. Had the same thing happen with Pirelli and got 2 rebate cards.
  19. It will be interesting to see what Lorenzo does on the Ducati. I still think Marquez is gonna be tough to beat.
  20. My brother is my primary workout partner. We chit chat, but we also get our workout done in a timely manner. We can usually get what we want done a little over and hour depending on if we do cardio after weight training. When I go by myself, throw in the earbuds, blast some tunes way too loud and get shit done. I'm usually done in 45 minutes.
