hey riceburner, he said NO sport riding! :badgrin: And you suggest pirellis? You will have a hard time finding 'cheap' tires for these bikes. I love my continental road attacks, but they are made for agressive riding, but that just means they handle everything well. The bridgestone line will be amon...

I have no leather so I can't speak to that option. I had some, but I got mugged by some gay guys and they took it all.


Edit: Being Aslan, you should know all this stuff already.

what boxer, did they take your virginity too?

dang Tony, I think you have 1 of every suit BMW makes except for the Atlantis! :lol: Tony forgot to mention he got his R1200ST free when he purchased all that gear! :lol: =D> I use the N100E flip, soon to be replaced, preferably with a MOMO devil and another flip.

ummm, ferrari uses quirky state as OEM. i personally don't use it, but if it's good enough for a $200K+ italian, it should be fine for our kraut-mounts.

thanks...i already had trouble with my ignition wires cause the harness cut through them too.

i will do the cyclerob check...thanks!

horn doesn't work when needed. if steering is turned hard left, it mostly works. it may also work 5% when steering is straight on. seems like a trouble with the electrical wire, no? but could it also be the switch? how do you narrow down where a short would be? Or do I get a new aftermarket horn tha...

10 x 3000 = 30000 right? lol :lol: you can negotiate more than that. the gas crisis is hitting the truck makers and dealers hard. you can get them for a song. Dodge trucks are reduced $7k in NY, and that's from the factory. You may be asked to return your democratic voters registration card if you b...

Cam is such a contrarian. friend loves his blackbird. the guys at the bash prolly remember that black beast. our bike may very well be the best all-arounder unless you have to travel fire-roads often. THEN the GS may be the bike, but the KTM is probably better in the muck and the Triumph Tiger will ...

i lowered the pipe with a kit from Wudo cause I picked up a used set of bags with the full left. personally, i need the full size as I tend to overpack. i feel that with the high pipe, the original left bag is worthless. I also use the skinny city lids for around town and with the high pipe, you've ...

light weight? man, you were swaying to and fro whilst I still was slamming down the drinks. so what if you beat me to the 4th? you couldn't make it as long.

rookie.

My question, My 1150R has like two mounts or some type of small nut built into the bottom part of the front shocks , does anyone know what it is for? oh, they're for training wheels. :P I think Vann might have a set...I sure needed them when I hit a patch of gravel...DOH!!! Welcome and good luck wi...

wussy...just cut back on those coronas mang!

when's the drawing? too late to get a raffle?

I use firstgear two piece. cost me about$75 at a rally. has vented holes in the back and velcro for over the zippers. goes over my first gear kilimanjaro suit fine. gives me extra wetness protection for those not so fresh days.

wow...sorry to hear about your mishap. feel better and heal thyself.

I remember when I was in the Algarve how the driving of the locals left alot to be desired. go enjoy the lovely beaches and recuperate!

when i was a kid i practiced this on my honda elite scooter. getting the bike to lean way over while i counter leaned , basically keeping it off the ground. i then graduated to myh dad's harley flhp police special and learned to do the same thing. believe it or not, those 800lb harleys are easier to...

nice tom! you are soooooo lucky the bill was only $265!!!
