I use some shure noise isoloating ear buds. I like the music and it cuts out a lot of the wind noise on a highway drive.

I really liked the FJR but for commuting it is just too big. As a highway bike it would be great. The FZ1 is a nice bike and would be good to set up for touring but would be squishy for two-up riding. I rode a suzuki bandit 1250 this year that I really liked. It's a little bigger then the...

Very nice. I'd been thinking about getting a trailer to pull the kayak with the bike instead of taking the truck all the time. Never thought of a folding kayak. Well done.

I'm in Regina Sask.Canada and my wife is looks after hiring for the Health Region (nurses etc). We are short on nurses and anyone in the medical profession and in every profession. Google Regina and see if it is a place where you might want to live. If you have any question or interested in...

How about the black hills - Mt. Rushmore, Old Faithful. Lots of guys from here head down there to ride. A lot more twistes then around here.

I've been looking at sliders too.The OES sliders come in different sizes for the FZ's. What are the pros and cons of a bigger diameter or the extended slider ? Also cosmetically what looks better on a blue 05 with the silver frame white or black ?

I've been getting estimates for the PR3s and most are $736 for tires and install. $650 for the PR2's doesn't seem too bad to me. Oh and the $736 is if I just bring them the wheels. They want another $100 to uninstall\install on the bike.

Nice. I think mine bike will be coming out this weekend. Amazing winter we've had this year. When are you usually able to get back on the bike ? This will be almost two months early for me.

We tend to get lots of small pits in our windshields. Guess it is more like sand then gravel - but not nice beach sand. What really sucks with the gravel\sand on the roads is the first couple weeks of bike season after all the snow melts. You have to take it pretty easy until they clean up...

Classic. Great video. Driving on ice\snow takes a lot of skill. Some people should just take the bus. I was laughing in my office watching it but I'm glad it wasn't me or my property getting destroyed. Up here we use a combination of salt and gravel. Gravel works better, salt melts a bit...

Maybe a replacement for my 05 FZ. Hopefully get a chance to ride one in the spring. Honda Motorcycle

Ok.. I see your point about accidental shootings not being an accident. And everyone who owns a gun should know the does and don'ts and responsible and irresponsible gun ownership. But as you are walking down the street how do you trust that the person over there on the other side of the...

For sure a basic firearm saftey course can help reduce accidents. Car accidents shouldn't happen either because everyone has recieved driver training and should know the rules of the road too. How many of us have nearly been hood ornaments because someone didn't shoulder check. Can you...

This is just a random bit of thoughts rolling around in my head from comments I have read. I'm not saying if I agree or not with carrying a firearm. First of all - I own firearms and enjoy hunting with them and shooting them. However they are locked in a safe in my house and I do not feel...

Right on. How many shells are you allowed in the tube ? Up here we are only allowed 3.
