The color of the light doesn't seem to mean anything anymore, in Massachusetts people keep going for all three colors!!

Both plastic catches snapped ? Do you have the pieces? Try some super glue. If not fashion a couple from epoxy putty . You will have to take it out of the fairing to do it right. I would try it to save 1K.

I went in to the local Honda dealer to look around. I asked if there was any word of the"X ADV" . The new salesman I talked to claimed he didn't know anything about it. There is a video on the internet ( professionally done) that says we will find something out August 30th...

So, how is that 800 GT going ?

Of course, the Pirelli's my Sport came with were the worst holding motorcycle tires I ever owned. The Dunlops held the road better, they just self destructed.

Sorry, the Notch Tour has been rescheduled to September 23, 24, 25. I was checking hotel prices, and found with the upturn in the economy, hotel vacancies down , prices up, over last year. I am staying at the Hillside Inn, in Killington VT. Again this is an informal Rally,based on riding the...

I like my " Power Pures".

I thought about trading mine for a 2017, but, found that it was depreciating faster than I was paying for it. ( I guess the insurance I bought to protect me if I totaled the bike, so I would get what I owe for it, was an ominous investment) I have been paying extra every month which is keeping...

You may think that the pads don't touch the rotor, when the brake is not actuated, but, the caliper does not move that uniformly for both sides to retract from touching everytime or evenly. Plus the actuating mechanisim will stick if not periodically cleaned and lubricated. If you don't think...

These parking brake pads do wear, although slowly. The geometry of it is that a small amount of wear shows up as a large movement of the actuating lever due to mechanical advantage.They will wear out eventually. If you adjust your cable 1/4", that is way more than a two foot long cable would...

In quality control if the first pieces out of a box are bad, you flunk the whole box. A front and rear tire bought at different times, both failed with the same problem, that is a bad sign.I don't know how they could win me back.

Nice installation.

I read somewhere , that the Japanese studied what would attract attention, and found that a "face" like look, attracts attention best. My opinion is, we need every car to have those automatic braking systems. And, guess what, automatic braking was developed in the 1950's, and we are just...

Gaspe' North shore The North Coast of the Gaspe' had some long beaches, which I didn't expect. Then there were long stretches where the mountains came down to the ocean and the road was blasted out of rock.

I guess that's it!!

Trying to find out why I can't post pictures, seems it is a file size problem. I reduced this pic of the longest covered bridge in the world.

Looks good to me, how many miles can you do before your bum hurts?

Although, every once in a while I see a write up of an electric scooter from start-ups, a couple I would get for around town, if they ever started making them.

Those tires worked fine on the Silverwing, they failed. It was a quality problem.
