SOLD - Shad Topcase Rack - Works with Givi Monolock Case ----SOLD---- Up for sale is Shad topcase rack - it's been drilled to work with the universal Givi monolock mounting plates which is the setup I had. I really liked the Shad because it was less bulky that the givi rack and doesn't...

SOLD: Laser Quad Exhaust Sold----- Up for sale is my Laser Quad exhaust as I've returned the FZ6 to stock in preparation to sell it. It's in good used condition, I gave it a five minute polish before taking the pictures but didn't spend much time. Ships pre-assembled saving you most of the...

I don't think you'll have a problem keeping up - 15 over is still going to be 15 over - and I'll still be slow.

Thanks - close to you looks like - Batavia. Got 3 buddies lined up and going to drive in and back Sat/Sun with minimal stops.

I haven't ridden it yet - it was an eBay auction. I had started looking around thinking VFR but they're a bike that makes sense but I don't really love. Found this one for a steal (6000) so it made sense but I'm going to have to ease into the extra power. I do plan to stick around the forum...

an 05 BMW K1200S with ~20k miles, side bags and full Remus exhaust. Heading out from MA to OH to pick it this weekend and very excited about it. Can't wait to get her home - unfortunately it means the FZ is going up for sale as part of the deal.

So I'm a day late here but since I'm not going to be challenging anyone for the win it prolly doesn't matter (for the record it would have been the same if I took the photo yesterday) Finished at 15780 Started at 11880 so a whopping 3900 miles for me.

Not to sell short NS, the Cabot Trail or the great time I had - I few of my co-riders had ridden around the Gaspe peninsula 3 years ago and they all claimed it was even better than the Cabot Trail due to sustained views and coast hugging roads compared with the more "in/out of the woods...

^^^ "...and then she said, the only way I'm going on a bike is if it's a car!" Seriously though, there's usually a few of the Hannigan-kitted bikes at local shows such as below:

I also grew up in NS but didn't have a bike when I lived there so it was fun to experience some of the places I'd been as kid in a new way.

It was an adventure - makes sitting at the desk all week seem pretty boring. Yes, it definitely must of been them you saw - I think only saw one other bike (an ST1300) on 95S that Sunday. As indicated we had split up after lunch in Augusta and two of us just beat it back with no more stops...

DAY 4: Saturday 9/26/09 Doug decided to break away from the group and ride to PEI via the ferry and come back via the 8-mile bridge to eventually meet-up with us in St. John that evening. Doug hit the same in and out of showers with rainbows out of Inverness we did and got to the 10:30 am...

Trip Report - Boston to Cape Breton, NS, Canada Last week I took a trip from Boston area through the Cabot Trail. One of my co-riders (Tony) took the time to write a ride report and I added some of my own thoughts so I'm posting up as-is with his words being prime with a link to photos for...

I ended up doing an emergency dual light un-mod at just past a customs booth last Sunday myself followed by a push start. Turns out that the extra light, GPS, and cranked electrics (30w gloves, 45 W vest) was too much even at sustained 7k rpm on the highway. Everything was fine with just one...

I like 'em less factory...

Not sure I buy into one being worlds better than the other. KTM has great off-road rep and know how but in the really rough stuff weight/size counts for a lot and the 800GS is remarkably light and nimble for what it is (and ~50 lbs lighter than a 990). I think either would do fine within the...

Sorry about the pain but that was a hilarious write up. With my rib being cracked I definitely was laughing until it hurt (which was pretty early on). It took me like 10 mins to get through it all. I gotta ask though - did someone give you a quarter for every time you could say ballsack?

I run a dual headlight, powerlet gloves (well mine are labelled FirstGear but same-same) and an Aerostich vest, GPS, etc. I specifically chose the Aerostich b/c it's a low watt (45W) vest. I'm definitely running a power deficit in that if I have the vest and the gloves running they're not as hot...

Thanks for all the input everyone - I have to say at first I was surprised by how few were in the play it safe camp but then I guess everyone loves to ride as much as I do.:rockon: Think I had a little setback today with a serious double sneeze that has me feeling worse than I have since a...

I was thinking sneezing was the worst too until tonight when I got a bad case of hiccups at dinner - I think knowing they would keep coming but not knowing exactly when each would be made it worse than sneezing even if sneezing is a little more severe on the pain scale.
