70 degrees and blue skies. Looks like we get a reprieve from the bad weather for a couple days. :yes:
Our last day of bad weather for about a week. Yesterday, I stayed up during the early hours, watching the weather in my area. Two tornadoes doing damage about 75 miles North of here. That doppler...
YeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeHaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa. That's a great one. I love bikes with lots of torque. I was always a bit chicken to drive over 100 though. Like Clint used to say..."a man needs to...
:yes: :firstplace:
And speaking of Triumph Rockets. Yes, I had to check those out. 2300 cc--triple three. I went to the dealer. Beautiful fire engine red. I thought, I could like this. ...
I have always been a very conservative rider. :bowdown:
Opinions will vary, but let's remember to keep the replies friendly.
If you remember the 998's, we were told to change the oil early on that one. I believe it was 650 miles. ??? It blew my...
I don't ride anymore, but for the 57 years I drove motorcycles and Spyders, I never once did a WOT move. And I did own a 2000 cc Vulcan and a V-Max powered Yamaha Venture.
Also been there and done that. About three years ago, I had to give up my beloved Vulcan 900. At 730# it was just to heavy for me. A couple times laying it over because my leg gave out and I...
Thank you for the latest video. People should listen to what you said at the end of the video. You know what your doing, you know about limitations, and I did not notice anything that I would...
You know it's really the dogs bed. The dog just lets you sleep there sometimes. :yes:
This one also works for cats.:yes:
I see red flags. A dealer with a drop off and wait repair policy has a couple strikes against them for starters. IMO of course. :bowdown: Do you have other dealers in your area ??? Any...
We had similar on both our F3's. It added just the right amount of "bling" factor. Never used them to carry anything though. :bowdown:

A week of 80's for us.
The Cicadas are coming, the Cicadas are coming, the Cicadas are coming. According to the map, looks like we are going to be ground zero.
We had both the signature light and the bump skids on our F3L's.
The signature light was more for show but not good for nighttime lighting.
Come back as often as you want to reminisce. We still have a good group of people to talk with. :yes:
An answer from the "other side."
I used Kenda's on all but two tire changes. Both "other brands" never got tested out in full because I sold both machines before the tires wore out. I have...
:welcome:
Just an additional thought...
And they have maintained their reputation from day one. :2thumbs: :firstplace:
Severe weather in the area. Yesterday, the storms passed through parts of NW AR. The storm line missed us by one county. More of the same today, but the storms are further north and west and look...
Nice tradeoff. Nice looking Miata. :firstplace:
Come back once in awhile. You know you will miss us. :yes:
My 02. Riding solo with a partner is great. You can stop where and when you want. Things seem to fall apart when you join up with someone that sticks to "their way" of riding and it sometimes is...
Another group of "cooler" days. Low 70's. I guess that I am finally getting acclimated to the Southern Midwest. These days 70 feels cool. I am even liking those lower 80's as my favorite...
I used to like the Rand McNally paper maps.
We bought a new Garmin for the trip from AK to AR in 2019. It sent me down a wrong road in Iowa and took me 20 miles out of the way before I caught...
Where can I get me one of those ??? :roflblack:
Sadly: a sign of the times. No problem for some places to take your money, both on the trade in and on the sale of a new machine. Have policies in place that encourage you not to come back for...
Use KBB or NADA blue book for a guide.
You will see trade in price, private party price, and resale price. Trade in is always on the low side, while retail is on the high side. The price to...
Teaching some people to drive can be a real issue. Personalities kick in and stuff happens.
In your case, let someone else teach her the basics. :bowdown:
Hoping you can get the information you are looking for. I am guessing it was a "Premier" edition 2008 GS.
:welcome: It is nice to hear from a member that was here before I came on (2/2010). I...
