Re: Don't forget the fundamentals

I think I've had tipovers with every bike I've owned. Some on both sides. It just takes the curse off. Now, you don't have to worry about it! :rolleye

Of course, I try to get the crash bars...

Re: Regarding helmets

Also very pleased with my Shoei Qwest. Originally got it to wire it for mic and speakers for ham radio (since it was reviewed as being quiet), and now it's spoiled me for my previous lesser helmets...

Re: Front wheel prop/jack for on-the-road tire fix?

Thank you (again) Johnny. You seem to be the first with the best info on anything I ask about on this forum!

Re: So what do you think about the new Pashnit homepage?

Of course I don't enter the site by that address, but the slideshow is beautiful!

I always thought that your site-wide header took too much screen space, and that maybe you could shrink it a bit...

Handle Helps Hoist High F800GS

At 5' 6.5" in height, my shoulder is not that far off the ground. So, there are times that I just *cannot* pull my F800GS up onto its center stand.

Until now...

This was my Saturday project. ...

Front wheel prop/jack for on-the-road tire fix?

OK, I'm sure that someone has already invented a tool for this, so before I jump in and duplicate that effort, I'm asking for *your* solution.

I desire a lightweight tool to 'jack up' or 'prop up'...

Very tall bar risers rescue my FZ1 from oblivion.

For the last couple of years, I've only been riding my FZ1 out of guilt. I've kept the oil and life-blood circulating every few weeks, but the bike I've wanted to be on is my much more upright...

Re: Not Rossis Driveway

Thank you Vincent and Suzi, for clarification on that location--

Re: Alpinestars Armor worn on the body...

What would be your opinion of wearing these on TOP of your jeans? Again, for first-impact purposes.

Would they tend to pull your pant leg up and off your boot? Thanks.

Fantastic! Great pictures, and I like your choices for the music.

Re: GPS Recommendation

Love my Zumo 550 for both bike and car. Bought it new at what I thought was its "end of product life," sidestepping the (not-that-great reviewed) 660 (665 was not yet out).

No regrets.

Re: Are you afraid of Craiglist scams?

When I sold my boat on Craigslist ($13k), I just took a ride to the local Bank of America with the buyer to get his cashiers check. No problem.
