Facebook has outlived it's usefulness for me. I closed my account due to the constant drivel people post, my time is too valuable to waste on trivia.

I hope that this forum doesn't die.

They pay people to write no-brainer reports like that?

A patch of fine sand that caught me by surprise, accelerating in second gear, wheel spins and then it hooks up, still under power so no worries. Sure did curl my toes.
Large nasty mess of roadkill...

Here is an option that I've taken to avoid Chicago, Detroit and freeways: the "Badger" ferry runs from Ludington MI to Manitowoc WI. Old coal fired steam powered vessel with a lot of history to enjoy...

My first was on a Norton Commando, the 1972 Combat edition. Clocked 120 mph, likely around 105 realistic mph. Before that 100 showed on a 450 Honda, but I'm skeptical. Since then, 220 kph on...

I actually clicked on the banner ad at top of this page > Northeastern Ontario, and was pleasantly surprised. There are some good riding routes on the maps. Province of Ontario actually promoting...

Looking forward to trip report, BL and photos too. I have been busy working which really gets in the way of fun. One more year, one more year...

I can give a bit of input on this, having ridden KLR's, Wee Strom and presently own a Versys.

KLR> stone axe reliable and about as exciting, you might find the power lacking if you are coming from...

Good one!! Should have posted in the jokes section, very funny!

Gerbing gloves, mmmm, very nice. The silk liners I got with mine really add to the comfort. On milder days when my light unlined gloves are a bit too cold, the Gerbings without added heat are very...

Looks and sounds like you had fun, BOB.

In regards to the 'ride twice, once to admire the views'> good advice, but there are roads that I remember more than the scenery. I know there are good...

Nice looking ride BL, maybe show another photo or more, from sides and camera low, please? I like Buells but too lanky to ride one, they seemed very compact when I had a 'showroom ride'.
I like bar...

#92 through Gunnison Nt. Forest, #160 Molas Divide Pass, also Cordova Pass excellent.

Nice score, parts shouldn't be too difficult to find, maybe even another part bike? You have a good opportunity here to brace the frame, graft on a newer fork etc. Cafe or flat tracker, either is a...

Go Green, if you are so inclined, the Snake River Pale Ale is a fair local brew. Dubois (pronounced DewBoys) is an interesting cowboy redneck town, avoid Jackson Hole, it's a $$$ tourist trap. BL was...

Better get another brand involved:

A biker stops by the local Harley Shop to have his bike fixed. They couldn't do it while he waited, so he said he didn't live far and would just walk home. On...

BL, funny that you mentioned Tensleep, I had the best breakfast burrito ever there. So good and so much that I couldn't eat again until late afternoon!

Here's another one, not sure why so many jokes involve BMW?

A motorcyclist walks into a BMW dealership and browses around, spots a very nice new Beemer GS with loads of farkles so he walks over to...

Thought I'd see if anybody here likes to laugh as much as I do, so I'll start this off. Please post if you have a joke to share.

Two motorcyclists are riding down the road when they come across a...

I've always figured that it is the tire itself that creates the out- of- balance. I have balanced tires on most of my bikes using stick on weights although current bike uses OEM weights that position...

I've thought about this for a while and realize that I don't have an answer in a number form, only my personal experience over the years.

The distance ridden relates to comfort, fitness and...

How much unsprung weight do the beads add? What are they made of?

Thanks BL, guess I should have done some research before assuming. Love the bicycle-with- engine look. Gotta love the plunger for oil feed. Bet they never looked that good from the factory and were ...

I'm no expert but there were 4 cylinder 250 race bikes in the 60's. Perhaps Benelli had the first consumer street one? The first 4 cylinder bike of any capacity was the Henderson I think?

I agree...

Besides, bikes sound great in tunnels. Except really loud ones; they just get even more obnoxious.
