  1. Price drop for OR.net memebers. $5500.
  2. I saw it hidden last night and had no idea why or who.
  3. History repeats itself. Time and time again.
  4. it's a world gone mad.
  5. "YMMV". For the record, I bought them a few times. The tires were decent, when they were decent. Quality control was my issue.
  6. I didn't say they were not quality. I said to buy quality tires and brakes.
  7. I was left stranded near 800/22 with a 5 year old Yuasa. I turned off the bike to get a better look at a construction road closure that I had not anticipated. Saw an opening and knew I could safely get through without doing harm to the site. Hopped back onto the bike, turned the key, gauges swept, thumbed the starter and heard a pop..and everything went silent. EVERYTHING. A perfectly fine battery that never gave me one indication it was about to fail just screwed me. The Voyager's battery did the same thing last year, but I have no idea how old it was. To be safe, 5 years is the farthest I will push another one. I replaced the Ducati's battery when I bought the bike and keep the old one on a trickle charger in the garage for my bailout battery.
  8. Bethel, Ohio has entered the chat...
  9. https://akroncanton.craigslist.org/mcy/d/massillon-ninja-500r-need-gone/7143011519.html 2008 Ninja500, $1200 obo.
  10. I appreciate you, Tony. I should be more clear. I am not throwing "racist" out there like the majority of Liberals. I did say we could just be apathetic to the level of self-destruction as a society. When the police are not held accountable, every America-loving citizen in this country should shut down the entire system. We have the power. The Military seems to have our backs. A peaceful shutdown of everything non-essential is a loud noise. One entire day of America actually united in a common cause would shatter that system. We are being divided, systematically and intentionally. It's about time they were reminded who pays them and why. No violence is necessary if we don't ignore the problem and let it continue.
  11. It is an accountability issue, but it is governemnt wide. The police union has strength because those in power do nothing. Show me the numbers where government employees, including Capitol Hill, see the swift hand of justice when their atrocities are judged. Left. Right. No matter. We The People are the problem. We are the racists... if not at least very guilty of incredible amounts of apathy toward those around us. Stopping the economy in its tracks is what gets our attention. Dead children do not. Dead black children especially do not.
  12. I believe it is a racism issue. It just goes deeper than the police. The police are a reflection of racist domestic policy.
  13. I tried that for many elections. It doesn't work. I have not voted for a Republican since McCain.. and even then I about puked in my mouth while doing it. The Libertarians have no chance... and I voted for them, too. THE. TWO-PARTY. SYSTEM. IS. BROKEN.
  14. Stop Voting. Got it.
  15. Stop voting Republican. Got it.
  16. You're thinking KTM. They're Austrian.
  17. At this point, call it "Cop Lives Don't Matter", "No Donuts For You", "Fuck Color, Stop Shooting"... whatever... for all I care. Just fix the fucking problem. Semantics are a distraction. Credit is irrelevant. Just fucking solve the problem.
  18. The Voyager is very good 2-up. It is a lot better with fresh tires. She is quite happy with the Voyager. I rode a K1200GT and I do not like the lack of grunt from the inline. The bigger bike may be better, but I think the Wing's flat-six is more appealing.
  19. I need to ride one. I agree about the low suspension GSA, but I am keeping the one I have. The Goldwing would replace the Voyager.
  20. Lower seat height, primarily. The GS is too tall for 2-up with my short legs. If the RT is too tall, I will have to disqualify it. This is where the GoldWing begins to gain momentum as the best overall option. Have you ridden one? It's the same style front end as mine. I figured you would hate it.
  21. It's on my list. You and I need to get in a ride so we can swap bikes for a few hundred miles. Not necessarily, but I am really impressed with the overall build of mine. I have not ridden a RT since the 1150.. which was boring as fuck. The 1200 is a hoot and the RT is the best BMW tourer with that engine. However, rumor has it the 2-up qualities of the GoldWing are damn impressive. I also find the Wing more visually apealing than the RT, but both are dynamite tourers... and I used to ride a 1st gen Multistrada. I am used to ugly.
