Dude, you just need to leave Idaho on another trip to Bend and accidentally veer south at Burns!

It's pretty simple to find although it's in the middle of the desert. You can google maps it. Basicly, about 5 miles south of Silver Lake on East Bay Rd. Dinner is $23.75. You have to call and make reservations. There's no menu. You just tell them ahead of time whether you want the chicken meal...

I prefer not to comment on my cousin's posterior. It's hardness is none of my business. Seriously, he's a stud of a rider. (Very hard to keep up with in the corners on that supermoto believe it or not). Probably half of the time he rode standing up. About 800 miles in 2.5 days! I'm ready to go...

Went on a trip through the Oregon cascades and high desert this weekend. Three days of camping and 32 oz. of beef steak at the Cowboy Dinner Tree restaurant in the middle of no where. I'm seriously ready to go again.

Hey, I think what Mark means is: the next time the light comes on, go immediately and fill up so that you know how many gallons you've 'used'. Notice I didn't say how many gallons you've 'burned'. I was just washing gas through my number three cylinder because the wire that fired it's coil had...

31- bought mine last summer. I had a v45 magna before that. Definately a step in the right direction. I rode dirt bikes for years. But with a wife and 4 little girls, yes I said FOUR, it wasn't realistic to play in the mud so much any more. The vmax satisfies that void pretty well. I can still...

I bought my bike last summer. It has the superbrace fork brace on it. It is a beautiful part. I took some mother's aluminum and mag polish to it last weekend and it shines like glass. I have never ridden any other vmax, so I don't know how it handles in comparison to others. I have NEVER...

Hey My cousin is looking at joining the ranks. We're here in Oregon and there are a few for sale on craigslist, etc. but he wants to exhaust all sources before he gets one. Does anyone have a vmax for sale? Thinking about it? Know anyone else that does? Let me know! -Travis

Well, I DID ride mine like that for months. Ignorance is bliss....... it's also very embarrassing, (but since I'll probably never see any of you in person, I'm ok with letting you in on my idiocity- BIG word huh). Since I'm blabbing on without talking about my bike problem, you may have guessed...

If anyone does have any experience with this personally though, I wouldn't mind hearing it. We have a pretty adept electronics department here where I work so if I do have a blown diode or something of that nature I can probably fix it. I really would love it if someone had a list of the parts...

Hey Sean, maybe you can shoot me some prices. Thanks, -Travis.

Hey peoples. I'm pretty sure I have a bad channel on my ignitor box. I have a 2002 with no spark to one cylinder. I've spent a good deal of time checking into it. Heck, Mark even wasted the best part of his night on the phone with me last night. I haven't yet pulled the thing apart to look at...

Hey, I've got a question. I'm wanting to replace a gasket on my bike. It's the one under the cover right next to your left foot. I noticed a couple months ago that it was weeping when warm at the upper front corner. I just dabbed a little silicone on it to stop it. Now it's time to change the...

I'm on the market for a battery finally, I found the Power Star PS-680 is supposedley a direct replacement for the Odyssey PC 680. At $44 it is roughly $80 cheaper. Has anyone tried it or do you know anyone who has? Don't want to buy a piece of knock off crap if I can keep from it! Thanks.

I don't have my camera with me, but I did ride my bike to work. After looking at it and looking through all their products, I think that the following link is what I have: http://www.worksperformance.com/html/street_pair_street_tracker_drs.html I'm mainly wondering if I can lower them a...
