    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.

Pic of the week game

Set out this evening to grab a pic. Had an idea to have my bare feet in a stream with my bike in the background. Knew the spot I wanted along a forest road. Road sloped the wrong way to park safely so went further to an uphill wide hairpin turn to swing around and come back. Got off balanced on the uphill turn and dropped the bike. Thank goodness the hard panniers were on and kept the bike from laying all the way over with the tank pointing downhill. The strain, as it was, sure didn’t do my hernia any favors. After picking the bike up and collecting myself, headed back down the hill only to see that the stream was too dry for the pic I envisioned. :confused: Oh, what we do for this silly game. Here’s the consolation pic. Oh and the hernia surgery is scheduled for August 30th. :(

I never eat Ice-cream in front of my motorcycle while on a ride. Here's my story.

It was a HOT summer day. I was riding my GS1000.
I was somewhere in Tennessee. I stopped for gas at a convenient store that was also a Ice-cream stand. I thought sure a ice cream cone would be nice about now. I sat by the motorcycle enjoying my ice cream.
After fueling up and washing up, I was ready to hit the highway again. As I was pulling out of the gas station the motorcycle died, nothing! I wiggled the key, nothing.
I figured I'd check the fuses. Sure enough a blown main fuse. I changed the fuse and the motorcycle fired right up and didn't give me any problems the rest of the trip.
As I was riding down the road I thought to myself, I'll never do that again... Eat ice cream on a hot day in front of my motorcycle! I think it was mad at me for not getting it a ice cream cone too!

I feel like maybe I got your vote only because Steve isn't showing off his 6 exhaust tips on the CBX in his pic. But I'll take it.:p

My vote goes to dorkburger.
