Hello Friends,
I bought this bike here a while ago, and I have barely used it. Between the coronavirus and building my Skoolie, my attention has been elsewhere. We will get dual sports for our nomadic life to come. I am asking what I paid for the bike - $3,000. I also have an '06 SV650 with a...
Friends,
I know this is a local event, but the Closer to Free charity bicycle ride on September 7 needs motorcycle volunteers to man tricky intersections. Check the web site to sign up. This is for a great cause, and there is a wicked party afterwards at the Yale Bowl. My wife and I are...
GoPro Naked, lightly used, perfect operating condition. Includes original cables, charger and instructions. I have a handlebar mount, roll cage mount (real sweet for down-low installation on a frame slider), and a vented bicycle helmet mount. Also included are various other mounts and a fast...
For sale is a set of Rox Risers with 2" rise. These accommodate 1" or7/8" bars. No bolts - sorry. Normal scratches on the underside.

I was going to do a naked conversion, but I won't be bothering. For sale is the LeaN69 S1 speedo mount, non-led front (3-wire) turn signals and the Yamaha turn signal connector wires.

I currently use a ram mounted gps on the bar for tunes and navigation. I may be joining the crowd with an iPhone, so I am wondering if it is durable enough for handlebar use.

Here's my first vid. (I hope it embeds correctly.) I got the Go Pro for my bike commute and for a mountain bike club I do with kids. I think I'll use it on the moto too.
My Commute Home
Joe
My wife and I did a short trip from CT to the White Mountains in New Hampshire. One of our favorite campgrounds, Crawford Notch Campground, was hit hard by Tropical Storm Irene, and they have been working very hard to recover. Some of the best camp sites are simply gone.
I am on an '06 FZ6...
I'm doing a longer trip on all highway from CT to Chicago to Nashville and back home. Any idea if going through Ontario would be an improvement over going through PA and OH? Also, I need a night in W VA on the leg home. Any suggestions for a cool town to stay in? Thanks.

I just had some service done on my '06, and it has a clean bill of health. It got a new clutch cable, coolant (the old stuff was brown and gooey) and brake fluid. I traded for it when it had 23K on the odo, and it now has 40K. I was worried at first because the bike had lived outdoors and...
Today my wife and I looked over US travel books, trying to find something to help us dream up bike tours. Beginning next summer, we hope to start some lengthy road trips.
The problem is that we didn't see any books that emphasized camping. There are the standard RV guides, but that is not...
I got the Scala G4 PowerSet so I could whisper sweetness into my wife's ear while riding, only to find it won't pair with my nuvi 750 gps. The guy at Cardo says I need the zumo series to pair with the Scala.
Any ideas for a workaround? I really don't want to drop $600 for a zumo.

Literally. I rode about 80 miles yesterday, and was close to home when I heard a small kerchunk. I attributed it to a pothole and rode on. I gassed up before home and parked the bike in the garage. It was less than two miles home from the kerchunk. I did some work on the car, and gave my...
I haven't posted here before . . . but my wife and I will be at Toymakers Cafe in Falls River, CT for lunch sometime around 1:00 today. If you don't know the place, it is a quirky bike hangout, with a barn full of old Triumphs. It has some of the best food around, with great roads throughout...
