    Trucking it up

    If it wasn't for the house (shack) on the right, I'd say you were heading west out of Cheyenne, just past the peak and about ready to hit Laramie. But that house ain't there on the bit I'm talking about. You must be near Green River?

    Another RoadRider AND Dynabead Fan Started on the Dynabeads after my first tire change. They work for me as they are explained on their website. Been in two additional tires since, all 3 working just fine - nice and smooth. After the stock Metzelers, I had Sport Demons. They absolutely...

    Brewing Beer Today...

    I'd be happy to share my stout recipe if you are interested.... I think it is one of my best recipes, really refined it over the years and I think it is where it needs to be now. It's an all grain recipe and with a nitrogen system, it comes out pretty close to perfect.

    Hello from the Mile High City..

    Hi - I'm just a little north of you, up in Cheyenne. Last week was good for riding, even up here it almost hit 55 degrees one day. Only thing that scares about the warm days, it melts the snow which freezes again at night - got to watch for ice in the mornings. Did you get your bike from...

    Brewing Beer Today...

    found a good recipe for bread with the spent grains - it's a recipe for a bread machine. Just throw all the ingredients in, turn it on - done. Came out good. I just googled spent grains bread machine - first hit is the recipe I used. Now I have an excuse to not oversparge!

    Why old farts don't ride sportbikes

    After watching that one, keep following the links it gives. I ended up with a series of all kinds of bikes lowsiding on Mulholland Dr (CA, right?). Seems like some guy just set up a video camera on one corner and caught a crap load of wipeouts.

    How are you holding the tank rack on? Suction cups? I like yours a lot better than mine - yours looks to be the 5 rail? And curved - where'd you get yours? I almost went red, but at the last minute, got the Black. I've wanted to get the ped slicer too, I like the look of em, just don't...

    D9 - I might be dreaming this, but did you ever make a bracket for the mini tach and key relocation. I thought you did, but I can't for the life of me find it anymore. I thought I saw one with the speedo on the left, tach on the right, above the key switch - kind of triangle shaped with the 3...

    Really, all I was looking for was where to go next with what I had (and I as I definitely see now, what I could do...). Sorry if I offended anyone with my lack of properly thinking first and lack of mods that compare to what some of the more talented have done.... To me, with limited garage...

    Cross Country Ride?

    If you really want to get from here to there, it's great for that. Last summer, we had some sort of schedule to keep - we had to be in Utah at the Salt Flats on a certain day to keep the room reservation. We screwed off some up in SD, WY, and MT with some good roads and scenery. One day we...

    I actually forgot all about that - I've already put some progressives in the forks. I am happy with the ride, so I don't know about the rear shocks, but that certainly has been on my mind lately. Here's my thoughts on the suspension, knowing me, if I get too carried away with a really great...

    Alright, busted - my mouth spoke before my brain processed. How about, modded the shit out of it in terms of, got a kid ready to start college, got another 2 years after that, and a wife that thinks there ain't enough in the retirement account. Here's all my girl has done to her - the usual...

    Well, maybe I'm exagerating just a little - I have yet to get one of your brackets. Maybe a better choice of words, I've run out of things that I can think of, except the really big projects. I just not ready to remove the airbox and I doubt if I will ever go big bore.

    But wouldn't stacks be the same as taking out the airbox, or am I missing something with what you mean. When I think of the airbox being removed, aren't stacks about the only way to go after that. Have you done this? Got a pic so it will click with me....

    Man, I've been a lurking member here for almost 2 years now. I was a misguided forum member in the beginning and I've just recently been saved, that is, booted from the other place. For the sake of my sanity, I got to get out of the cafe and into some grease and oil and rubber. I've already...
