  1. Forgot to photo our burgers, but lunch was good.
  2. What helmet offers built-in hearing protection?
  3. Awe, hell. Now there will be rolling roadblocks out the asshole down there. Tell your FJR buddies to shut the fuck up.
  4. Pics of me dragging knee on Killboy Highlight page..Coming Soon!!
  5. Wow. That is a very classy ride.
  6. His pace through the corners was quick enough to surprise me. I led down 44/542/39 and he mentioned he would like to go a little faster. I said he could lead on the way back, but to watch his entry speed and make sure to not ride faster than his eyesight can see. He zoomed along about 60mph and I only saw his brake light a couple times as he set up for the tighter corners. His lines need work, but they weren't terrible. He never had to readjust once he nosed into the turn, but he did run a little wide on a couple. He stayed in his lane, though. He needs some track time. That is my next project.
  7. Isaac's street riding debut was Sunday.
  8. That is more bike than I am qualified to pilot.
  9. You need to reset your baseline test. From now on, only attempt to start it with the side stand retracted (that means "up") and the clutch lever depressed (that means "pulled"). This will help narrow things down to a manageable amount of gremlins.

    2019 Gap Trip.

    I learned a few things on this trip. -5 days of rain can really test a rider's mental fortitude. -Michelin makes wet roads its bitch. -I am a better rider than I thought I was. -No such thing as waterproof textile. Thanks for hosting, OhioRiders. I thoroughly enjoyed myself.
  12. You're right. I may have caught The Derp. I think I will keep it for now. The bike I want to replace it with is too expensive at the moment. I could go for the FZ1, but if it did 5 days at a very positive clip and was able to hang... it is worth some effort to make it better.

    Balancing beads

    Now I need a shop vac to change tires. At least they are a gimmick and inconvenient.
  14. I stopped and looked at a few bikes. There are some RTs on consignment at the local store that belong to some highly irrational people. Is asking $4k above market value a BMW thing?
  15. That is a lot of machine for someone like me, but a damn good price. I will consider that. Thanks.
  16. http://www.fox10phoenix.com/news/mom-stabbed-son-6-multiple-times-said-he-deserved-it-court-papers-say I can't hang a fishing pole over the bank without a license, but this bitch is allowed to create life.
  17. Fuck your downvote. Show me $3k and I will listen to your lowballing ass.
  18. Fine. If someone from CL buys it, I will raise rhe price by one dollar.
  19. I have something similar in mind. The CL ad is the discounted price. It was listed at $4k.
  20. It isn't the inline that leaves me wanting. That little 600 is no slouch, especially at 10k rpm. Also, the brakes on that little bike are seriously adept. Soul? No, it has none. Character? I think it has a bit. VFRs are nice bikes. I especially like the sound of gear-driven cams and v-4 powerplants. However, I want a more touring-based platform. I tried to love it, but I am what I am. I am a snob. It is a fine little machine, though. If it weren't as quick as it is, I would save it for Isaac.
  21. Not bored. Quite the contrary. It is a great bike. I just want something more refined. I guess I spent too much time on Ducatis.
