Took Sunny 2.0 for her first real ride. An easy 100mi wander through Amish farmlands. It felt so good to be on a bike again.5 points

Assembled the Goldwing and took a short ride to shake down the suspension upgrade. 100% worth the money. Low speed maneuvers and highway handling is most noticeable. It doesn't wallow and 75mph is solid as 45mph. Bumps are smoothed out, too.4 points

Added turn signals, horn, and brake lights to the TE300, to make it street legal. Sent the new Goldwing seat to Russell Cycle products for the Day Long modification. Hopefully, it will be back in time for a trip to Smokies at the end of March.4 points

Spent some time pulling more cabinet facing off the Tupperware. Almost there and thought about going all the way, but my fingers started to protest. Two fat blisters on my thumb and index fingers quelled my enthusiasm. Very pleased with the way its looking so far.3 points

Got a new tank bag, a little larger than I expected. Haven’t got it fully mounted yet though.3 points

SR16 through WV, Burkes Garden, Marion VA, Smokies, Franklin NC, Blood Mountain, and anywhere else that my daughter can think of. We will be watching the weather and adjusting accordingly.2 points

I installed a new 12v outlet and built a quick disconnect harness for it. Not sure why BMW put the factory plug behind the rider, but that isn't an ideal spot. Now I have one CANBUS 5v outlet and two 12v direct from battery outlets. Also bought myself a new heated liner and gloves. The desk job is making me soft.2 points

Either are good states to be in Brian. I was probably both. Today it was adios to the Warp 9 motor covers. Maybe it’s the tolerances on the aluminum inserts, but mine just won’t stay snug. And an oil leak that was hard to find was the result. And I’m not resorting to thread lock to keep them snug. So off they came. In the long run, another layer of complexity in something so simple. My lower crash cage will continue to be the protection the motor needs.For sale cheap to anyone in the area (won’t ship).I also took the opportunity to pull the starter motor and install the W9 end cap that they sent me under warranty. The last one had the bearing freeze up and was field repaired in Ushuaia. I hope this one lasts longer. Stock end cap (2011, 525 miles) was bone-dry of any lubricant. This is a known issue with DR650’s and produces the infamous “rooster” sound when starting. This DR, even though only having 525 miles, is still 13 years old and needed this work Warp 9’s solution is a machined end cap with a small sealed bearing for the starter shaft to spin on, rather than the (dry) bushing in the stocker2 points

Got the bike out today and cleaned it up, then tore apart my Shoei and assessed the damage. I dropped it at the hotel at Deals Gap last fall and scratched the shield pretty bad. Probably due for an upgrade but helmet prices are just stupid.2 points

It's based on date of manufacture of the fuel pump. 17, 18 and part of 19 for the date of manufacture means your are impacted.2 points

Don't worry, Jim. You can borrow my American-made Goldwing while yours is down for service.2 points

Don't burn it. Lexus is very generous on trade in values. You will get more from them than from the insurance company.1 point

This option is something I've ALWAYS WANTED....no, NEEDED....in my automobile. I mean Bamboo? Rainforest? Iceberg? Waterfall? Excuse me, but now I have to go burn my 2018 F150 XL. It doesn't even have carpet! 😰1 point

Oh there is a spectrum, and custom mappings. I can also have different colors for different parts of the car.1 point

Upon further research, the Lexus has way more buttons. Today I learned I can change the mood colors inside. It has light colored accents on the floor, near the armrests and so on. So blue when I a calm, and red when I a pissed. I expect red will be used a lot.1 point

Got the FJR out for a little ride today. The roads are far from ideal, but it was nice to enjoy the 60 degree weather in February.1 point

Know anyone that would be interested in a like new (still under warranty) 2022 Ducati Monster+ 937? I bought it with the intention of flipping it. The guy I bought it from had a Ferrari, and Audi RS5, couple classic Porches, expensive boats...he bought the Ducati because he could afford it, but he just wasn't a motorcycle guy. It's absolutely like new with an excellent IMU based electronics package...lean sensitive TC and ABS, launch control, wheelie control, buttery smooth up/down quick shifter, etc. It's lightweight (40lbs less than the Monster 821), and flickable. If you've ever been afraid of Ducati maintenance...the 937 motor is a gem with extended maintenance intervals...18k for valves, and 9k for oil changes. Asking $11k1 point
