35 years old this month. Classic film, and one of Martin Scorsese's best in my opinion.

As most of you know Bret was involved in a bad accident recently and was seriously injured. If anyone would like to send Bret some cash to put towards his medical bills you can send him a PayPal money order. If you're interested in making a donation please PM Pepper, Brett, or myself to get...

I broke my leg a few months back in a stupid crash on the Street Triple. Both bones in the lower leg (tib & fib) were snapped and I got some new hardware in the form of a titanium rod down the center of my tibia. The good new is that I just got back from the doc, and he gave me the green light...

I'll have you arrested. Passenger stands up to the TSA "groin pat-down" http://current.com/news/92799966_if-you-touch-my-junk-ill-have-you-arrested-flier-becomes-instant-folk-hero-for-refusing-airport-molestation.htm Your thoughts?

I might have missed this so sorry if it's a repeat post. With the leg putting me out of commission I've been catching up on my TV viewing. That sucks mostly but I did find this cool show on HD that you guys might be interested in. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XKFtrbellCA

I’ve always heard that there are two types of motorcyclists, the ones that have gone down and the ones that will. Unfortunately I’ve joined the ranks of the ones who’ve had that unexpected “off”. The wreck happened as I was turning and hit a slick spot on (gravel I think) the road. I was only...

lately, every time I tell someone that I ride a bike they've got a story about death and mutilation? It's almost always a "friend of a friend" or something along those lines. I've gotten to the point where I just shut them down and tell them I don't want to hear it. Is it just me?

Who listens to artists that they might not want to admit to, or might seem out of character for them? I'll start... - The Smiths - Slayer - New Order - Bluegrass

I got a catalog from Lucky Brand Jeans in the mail today (not sure how I got on their mailing list..). Lo and behold, they've got a beautiful Bonneville on the back cover. Blue and gray with a ped slicer on the front. Not sure of the year. From the looks of the catalog they must have some...

I've been feeling restless and kind of down since I got back from vacation. At first I just chalked it up to post trip blues, but then I realized what I was missing. My tags expired on the bike when I was gone. I've been meaning to get them replaced but haven't had a chance because of work...

I'm in Vegas for the week at a trade show. I'm not a LV guy but if any of you come out this way DO NOT book the Luxor! Seriously, this place BLOWS!

Your opinions please...

:wtf: Anyone else getting spam from Rats Nest? I just unsubscribed but I'll bet they'll sell my email now. I don't even lurk over there anymore.

This is for sale on ebay motors right now...Can I borrow 75k from one of you guys?

Dude, beautiful all week and now this!?!? What happened to 300 days of sunshine?

Has anyone else seen this video? http://www.ebaumsworld.com/video/watch/1013275/ Some people should not be allowed to share the planet with us...

So seeing as my lovely Bonnie is gone, I'm feeling the need to cafe a bike. Problem is my wrench skills are very basic. I've done the NARK, rejet, pipes thing to my old bike but that's about the extent of my experience. So, If I wanted to start what's the best/simplest bike to start on for a...

It's been ~600 miles and a few weeks now so I thought I'd give some feedback for anyone considering a STR. Riding position - I'm coming from a Bonneville and the street is definitely more forward leaning. It's not unmanageable and I imagine the Thruxton guys would be very comfortable with...

Recently I've been reading a lot about crashes on this site and others. I wish I could say I'm ATGATT but sadly that's not the case. I never go out without a helmet, jacket, gloves, and boots but I'm often in jeans. Here's my daily riding gear: 1) Arai Vector Phil Read helmet 2) Triumph...

Have any of you noticed the Bonnie in the latest Allstate Commercial? The commercial starts with a bike flipping over in the road. The Bonnie is sitting behind the dude who's talking. It's up on a lift with the rear tire removed. Everything else looks like metric cruisers.

I pulled the trigger on a new Street Triple R today and traded in the Bonnie. I'm sure I'll regret letting her go but so far I love the Street. I need to win the lottery so I can have both...and a Thruxton. :playin:

There are two things I hate about my bike right now. The UGLY taillight/turn-signals and the big old reflector on the bottom of the fender. The lights are the next change I'll make when I get the time. I kind of like the length of the fender but I was thinking of doing something about that...
