Thanks Randy. That makes sense. I could never see shedding armor to keep dry in deteriorating riding conditions. I have actually never owned a...
I rode up to Springfield, IL one year with friends to watch Jay Springsteen ride the mile. It was an awesome experience. On the way back, about 20...
I have been having these same concerns/fears about similar temperatures in similar conditions on my 5th gen Y2K. All in all it seems normal and...
Congratulations on your marriage. You know that married men live longer, on average, than our unmarried brethren but we are more willing to die.
I am green with envy over your yellow bags. Very nice.
Me too. I have been putting thing off all my life. I said I would do them when the kids were older or when I had more money or more time. My mom...

Yep, I have seen those Norton blowers first hand. They are pretty impressive and nicely made. They also have a propensity to stick open for a very...
If I had the financial wherewithal to do one crazy thing, I think installing a supercharger on my 5th gen would be that one thing. It just looks...
It's worth the read. I want one. Are the kits still available?
You heard squishy piston noises in the master cylinder. Long is right " if you did something wrong you would know by now." Go ride!
The Italians have a propensity for making the world's best looking bikes with the hardest, most uncomfortable seats. I had a Guzzi, in the 80s,...
I am sorry for you loss. My VF500F was what started me down the VFR road but while I liked the bike I knew that damages like that was just around...
I love this thread. I took my daughter for her fist ride when she was 3. She was in front of me on my 3 1/2 Moto Morini and we went around the...
