    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

    What is this?

    Its been a while since I was in that part of my 77 GS750, but as I recall, that twisting motion actually causes a sort of cam action that pushes the rod. It doesn't move very much. Maybe a quarter of an inch or so.

    anyone go for a ride today? Pics?

    I haven't ridden much since I moved to TN. Today's work schedule was clear so I played hooky and managed to put in 216 miles. It was pretty chilly. Probably never broke 45. Thank God for heated gear. Wish I'd had more of it today. In spite of getting cold, it was better than sitting in the...

    Advice required using new table lift

    In fact my bike has been up on one of these over at Joe Nardy's place many times. For general work and rear tire changes it was just fine up on the center stand. To change the front tire it goes on the center stand and he has something like this to lift the front-end up. But for his...

    Riders made me angry

    No way whatsoever. They blocked all four lanes with 2 Harley and 2 sport bikes so their buddies could stunt in front of a captive audience. To try to get a cage in there would have been madness. I hope I set an example for the other cages by hanging back, not crowding them, and trying to keep...

    Riders made me angry

    Need to vent. At about 1pm Saturday I had friends and family in the truck heading for touristy stuff in Nashville. On the highway, right in front of me, a couple of Harleys and a bunch of sport bikes (maybe 30 or 40 of them) got in front of us. They blocked all 4 four lanes and slowed traffic...

    My ride to Colorado

    Graceland is fun. Hope you enjoy it. Be sure and pick up some tacky souvenirs like an Elvis swivel-hip clock, or some of those super-cool sunglasses! Was great seeing you at the rally and glad your trip is going well. If you need lodging in Nashville let me know. We're about 30 minutes...

    The "Adventure" Begins...............

    Thanks for the update Tim and keep 'em coming. Some of us are living vicariously through you and others are taking notes for that "someday" when the time and money come together for such an adventure. You were missed at BC. You were also a constant source of conversation there. Everyone was...

    What is the purpose

    A fork brace is like Viagra for your motorcycle. It will make your forks stiffer :-\\\

    Wow, I really like riding motorcycle :)

    Guess I had forgotten how much I like to ride motorcycles. My bike was put away for the winter on October 6 last year. Got it out for the first time since then today. Its been a long seven months. Man, I really like riding motorcycles!!! Got to ride a BMW R1200GS today as well. Great bike...

    Can You See Me NOW? REV'IT Energy Hi-Viz Jacket

    Hi-Viz indeed! Looks like a good deal on a nice jacket. Hope its crash-related features never get tested.

    It's good work if you can get it!

    That just rocks Joe! Wish we were in a position to join you guys on a tour. You are a great ride leader and good (if not reluctant) cat herder so you should be a fantastic tour leader. I know you guys will have a ball on these rides as will everyone who attends.

    Day rides around Nashville

    Thanks Matt. I've been looking at that site quite a bit. Most of the interesting rides area a little farther east toward the mountains. But it does look like there are a few interesting routes closer to town. Now I'll just have to get down there and check them out.

    Day rides around Nashville

    Not yet. No immediate plans but expect to have some business in the area later in the year (fingers crossed). I'll keep you posted. Yeah, thats a great ride. A few of us made our way there during a rally a few years ago. Would love to go back.

    Day rides around Nashville

    I might just take you up on that!!! Yeah, I was looking at this earlier based on posts from a rally thread. Looks cool. But from Nashville I could be at the Deal's Gap Resort in less time. Either would be a long day.
