    An interesting diversion

    Gotta love a boxer motor. I let one slip through my fingers about 5 years ago. 'Bout a month after it was sold ... I started really jonesing to bob it. It's gorgeous.

    Heavy Duty Aftermarket Starter with more torque?

    dlopes, I replaced my 2 pole with a 4 pole recently. Before making this decision, I did a bunch of Ebay shopping. At the time, I'd learned that there are actually two different part numbers which the aftermarket basically treat as interchangeable. Well, the starters are interchangeable, but...

    New headlight bulb out there

    They are feck all bright. I like riding behind them but riding in front of them sucks. They are bright enough that when behind you, your night vision is impaired enough to make the Max headlight comparable to a birthday candle. That is: you cannot see until you wave them by. As my chapter...

    Cell phones

    Note that this is extreme, but ... it's me, so ... I've been seriously considering penning and editorial for local consumption. Title: "Why we should stop enforcing drunk driving legislation" Key Points: Well, since we let people talk, text and do other things which make them unable to...

    What did you do to your Vmax today? Part 2

    Gonna share again. First things first ... I do understand that pics I've shared so far don't do much to demonstrate the preponderance of ATGATT sentiment in this group. I'm the free-to-be/free-to-choose type - I hope you can forgive some of my choices. I own several helmets, leathers, gloves...

    9sec 1st gen

    Y'all need to let this go or accept the challenge. The challenge sounds fun for y'all track types. The challenge also sounds darn honest and the gentleman has now offered to make his max track ready for your pleasure. All that said, why dispute the claims? Stock looking means very little as...

    What would you put into a "3rd Generation" VMax?

    Umm, it's a popular request, ... but ... ABS and/or linked brakes would be a deal killer. My theory: I'm the Pilot and I'll handle the hows. I've got the track time proving ... my threshold braking beats ABS 'puters every time. I am also no fan of chain drive ... I simply suck at the...

    Cager Pet Peeves

    1. Cagers that don't feel they need to dedicate their attention to the task of driving. Their distractions commonly include phones, food or passengers. 2. The "Oops" gestures cagers give me after trying to take my life (generally due to their negligence). 3. A general disregard for the social...

    Dumping at 35mph is expensive

    Umm ... here is how it works in the US. Yellow should be to your left side. It indicates the left border of lanes traveling in the direction you are pointed. Broken (dashed) lines can be crossed. Note that crossing a dashed yellow line means that you are facing oncoming traffic and it is...

    Anticipating dangerous situations...

    When the day comes that I don't survive multiple attempts on my life, I will know that terrorists have blown up all the cell towers in the area I rode through. What tweaks me most is the "oops, my bad" cagers display after their attempts at negligent homicide. Why don't they ever pull over and...
