Isabella and the Multi have to go as a pair. You give me $8k.. I give you two titles and a shitload of keys. What you do with either after the fact is your business. 

This would be like me selling both of my ZRX. 

Would most likely result in years of kicking yourself in the ass. 

Old crush washer and a dab of flex seal??

Looked at them thru an open garage door from my porch roof as I put down new shingles. Had to be 500 pirates roll thru New Concord today. On the bright side less than 2 weeks I'll be back at the gap. 

If your stopping for lunch try the sportszone on the square in coshocton. Stopped there last week and the food was awesome.

If we do that we need a category for "Heavy Bikes!"

I'm thinking that 600lb missile would go middleweight. 

@Tonik 's Kawi heavy bike

I'm out for today. Gotta head to work in a bit. Speed safe and stay dry fellas.

No need to drop the extra coin with JW i always get them in 36 hours or less. 

Agreed they are very quick. Just assumed that rush sticker was for overnight. I had to do that once. Ordered about 3pm and had them about noon the next day.

That'd be Jake Wilson/Rocky Mtn ATV. Either from Payson, UT or Lexington, KY.

Looks like he dropped the extra $20 to get em quick. Profile looks a little round. Sport touring?? Let's see some damn tread

Did more research on aftermarket exhaust. Leaning towards Black Widow out of the U.K. Full system for just over $400 shipped. 

I put black widow full system on my white zrx. Not bad at all. If you go that direction buy directly from black widow. Cheaper that way. When added to cart with U.S. shipping destination the price drops. Shipping is pretty quick. 

Gotta try to take the day off Saturday. Then a coin toss to see which zrx makes it out of the garage. The decision gets tougher every time. 

$60 rebate makes roadsmart 3's a no brainer in my opinion. Tread life seems very good. I'd say most my riding in a medium ish OR pace and I have never been without adequate grip.

Really appreciate all the tips. Yea, gonna do some bar work and the mirrors bug me big time. On the White Whale I can see perfectly behind me with both mirrors.

All Jap speedos read 5 percent too low.

Apparently the previous owner, or State 8 knew about the chain issue because it does have close to two inches of play. I was going to look at that next. So that is all set.

Love these bar ends. Hate not being able to see well behind me.

Not gonna do it. These tires are hard as hell.

Ok, so tires tomorrow. Where you riding Sunday. 

Roadsmart 3 are really growing on me. Hooped them up before the gap trip and they hardly look worn at all. Plenty of grip and a great ride. 

Pinlock is clear. No problems with reflections but haven't used it much after dark. Most companies offer clear or yellow drop downs. Mirrored shield isn't bad in town or anywhere lit up a little after dark but I usually just raise the visor and use the drop down. 

Best combo I've found is mirrored shield with pin lock and a clear drop down just in case I need it. That's with my Simpson ghost bandit. My first pinlock and I absolutely love it

Welcome 

if you don't have a motorcycle the link @Isaac's Papa provided would be perfect. You'll spend 2 days practicing and ride through the test course at the end. If all goes well they'll give you a certificate stating you've passed the course and you can get your license. For $50 it's a no brainer. They supply the motorcycle for the course.

sorry to say but over the speed limit and assured clear distance??  Ride safe freind

Thinking assured clear distance deals with following another vehicle traveling the same direction as you. 

The van pulled onto the road and into oncoming traffic. 

Not sure about speed but those damn Harley speedometers are notoriously inaccurate

Changed both tires on the FJR today. Almost ready for my trip next weekend. Gotta start packing.

Did you get good mileage out of the roadsmart 3's

Just do left turns. It'll be like NASCAR 

I gave the meanstreak a pretty good shuffle on 565-537-260-wv16 and such today. No more fear of dragging hard parts. Only hit the pegs once. Bigger tires made a huge difference in clearance. Takes a little more effort and turns in a touch slower but I think it actually holds its line better. 

Flex seal?

Even with all your troubles I gotta say I'm a little jealous. Seems it turned out to be a good trip

Take some wetnaps to clean up all the semen after you finish tearing up 80 and 550. 

OMGKY550!!

I'll just ride it through the car wash!
