Woke up, went to work this morning. It didn't look like the sky is falling...I guess I'll live happily with my blinders on and keep riding my motorcycle.

Went to the gym for the first time in 5 years. Did 40 minutes of cardio, I'm probably gonna regret it in the morning.

Wet clutch, Royal Purple says their HPS line is safe for motorcycle clutches.

Royal Purple 10w40 for the FJR. I have seen gear drives on side by sides drop 20 degrees when switching to it. Cam chain tensioners warn out at 20k miles, switched to Royal Purple and at 70k miles they still looked new. I don't run the motorcycle oil though. Just regular Royal Purple HPS. $8 a quart.

Calling @2talltim. I'm sure he want's to talk about oil. I switch everything to synthetic, just make sure there aren't friction modifiers that could cause clutch issues. Usually a manual will say what certification oil they require (For warranty reasons). The "break in" oil is usually changed at 500-600 miles by book spec on most bikes.

Sounds like a blast. Have fun!

Id rather see these stunts than a hipster with a flannel shirt riding a vintage cafe bike. -
I was getting in the same boat. My contacts kept getting more expensive and they wanted me to switch to hard contacts. That's when I went to lasik.

I don't even bother with changing the insurance anymore. This is my 3rd consecutive year of riding every month of the year.
-
Sad part is if I left work early, i'd go home and clean the bike. It is filthy from the Gap Trip and I want to start doing some winter maintenance.

10 minutes from twisty roads and decent weather

You are more motivated than me, I'd be out of there in a heart beat.

Royal Purple FTW

I've had good luck with my Held gloves. i've been thinking of picking up a pair of these. http://www.revzilla.com/motorcycle/held-sambia-gloves

Removed the FJR's tail section for a little side project...
-
Well, more details have been released. The bike locked up in the lane. Two cars swerved, third couldn't miss him.
-
A local rider was killed a couple miles from my house yesterday afternoon. Got hit by a truck on the highway on the side of the road. I can't fathom how people don't see something stopped on the side of the road.

I've always wondered how well a bar end mirror worked.
-
Here is my observations on the FJR as far as tires go. (Not trying to start a tire thread, I am stopping after this ) Stock Stones: 2800 (Toast, lost shape) Angel GTs: 4500 Average (Held Shape until almost worn out, 3 Sets) PR4s: 4800 with tread left (Bad Feathering)
-
I am gonna try the T30s next time around.
-
I agree, I never had a tire move around as much as my PR4s. My Angel GTs used to stick like glue.

Some people buy bikes to look cool, others buy bikes to ride them.

Welcome!

Interesting news article about Foothills. Looks like we may be able to ride the new section by 2018... http://www.wbir.com/news/local/foothills-parkway-missing-link-nearly-bridged/344999526

I like to go by the simple rule. Cheap, fast, or reliable. Pick two.
