I have the same medical condition here.
But it is UP to 28 degrees here today.
Back down to 16 tonight.
I ain't goin' nowhere.

Beautiful scenery!

Hey! Want to hear a resume of my summer?
"My ride was cancelled because it rained"
Repeat the above line about 30 times starting in
April and ending this past Sunday.
Arrrggghhh!

I just put a new choke cable on my garden tractor.
I greased it up good with PTFE grease from a tube, brand name "Super Lube".
We'll see how well it holds up.
The same company offers Super Lube in a spray can with the little straw.

I have the Commander II on both of my Goldwings.
The Commander on my 1500 is now nearly worn out with about 18,000 miles on it.
I have another new one here that I'll install next week.
I love 'em.

A friend of mine also fried a battery with a harbor freight charger.
I have four Battery Tender Junior's. All of them have been running 24/7 for years.
And all of my bike's batteries have lasted a looong time.

Good article, even though it ends at 2009 with BMW's Duolever/Hossack suspension.
If the article were brought up to date, it would mention the new Goldwing
suspension which appears to be a new Hossack styled setup.

Ok, thanks guys.
I have to get a replacement because that one is unusable.

Well, it looks like my bike is away for the winter now, whether I like it or not.
We had 9 inches of snow here yesterday.
Holy moly! It's supposed to be around 50 to 55 degrees here at this
time of year!! This is ridiculous!!
They slathered the roads with salt yesterday. I'm done.

Hey guys, My used GL 1500 came to me with this tire hose accessory. I don't know if this is original or not. Maybe someone can tell me if it is. But.... I tried to use it recently and there was NO WAY that I could get that damned air chuck to lock onto the valve stem of the Goldwing. I ended up lett...

$150,000 each? No thanks!
I can think of a lot better use for $150,000.
I could buy a nice used Bell Jetranger helicopter
for that price. It will carry four or five people
at 140 mph.
The hoverbike is obviously for the "more money
than brains" crowd. LOL!!!

You really meet the nicest people riding on a Honda, or better said.. "you meet the nicest people repairing a Honda"...

Hondas run forever. They don't need repairs.
They just need regular maintenance.

It showed up early this morning. Must have been delayed somewhere along the way.

LOL!! I have several friends who have the Sena blutooth things. I'll be sitting on the bike, ready to ride, and they'll all be standing around smacking each other on the side of their helmets trying to get the darned things to talk to each other. "I hear him, but I don't hear you" "I hear both of yo...

Hmm....Today is November 1st and I did not get my usual newsletter.
Are they delayed this month?

My friend pulled up looking totally panicked yelling for help. I didn't know what the problem was until it was too late and he went down next to me at a complete stop. Welp we learned a lesson that nice spring afternoon. What had happened was my buddies shoe laces had gotten wrapped around his brak...

having the ST 1100 means I want to add a few things to it. didn't have a lot of time but I got the aux lights mounted. I have a set of lights like the lower ones on the Mighty ST 1300 but have to find a different place to mount them on the ST 1100 In many areas, including New Jersey, it's illegal t...

Nothing like that on mine either. Weird.

Here in New Jersey, I'm still waiting for the BEGINNING of summer!
It started raining in April and it hasn't stopped yet.
I feel like I'm living in Seattle instead of New Jersey.
This is ridiculous!
We can count the number of really nice summer days we've had
this year on our fingers.

There are a number of posts on various forums about footpegs (and mounts) breaking off, luckily when people are mounting the bike by standing on the left side (a couple of right-side ones, too). Based on those posts I've made it a habit to never stand on the footpegs while riding, but what's the bo...

I belong to a small club that uses CB regularly to keep the group together on the road.

The Fairey Rotodyne was an amazing machine. Part airplane, part helicopter and part gyroplane.
And the thing worked amazingly well.
As far as I know, they only built one. And they destroyed it when they were done with it.
Politicians are a bunch of a**holes.

Changing the tire is not a permanent cure, only until the new tire starts cupping in 3,000 or so miles. Replace the steering bearings with Allballs tapered bearings, properly torqued with the socket and torque wrench, is the only cure. Really? That front Commander II now has about 16,000 miles on i...

I don't think I want to, but do any of u with a 1992 to 1996 have a Michelin Commander 2 on the front & some other brand of tire on the rear, or what is the next best tire to a Commander 2 on the rear? I run a Commander II on the front and a car tire on the rear of my '99 1500. The bike handles gre...

Yes, the Hiller Hornet used ramjets. I remember reading that night flights were always good for a few UFO reports due to the circle of fire from jets. Pulse jets are an entirely different animal. Back in the 50s and 60s, you could buy plans from ads in Popular Mechanics to build your own pulse jets....

If that thing has real pulse jets, it has to be louder than hell.
It would make a straight pipe Harley seem quiet by comparison.
