    Bike Night

    I led a bunch of people down to the Winterset, IA bike night last night. I parked in the middle of the street, surrounded by Harleys and Victory motorcycles. The wife and I got a sandwich from the BBQ vendor (oh soooo good) then sat and watched people. I had the only Ten there that I found and...

    Nothing worse

    Than having the wrong pair of underwear on during some vigorous gravel road riding. ::007::

    Gun mounting

    I think I'll make a quick detach carrier for the Kolpin and put the gun on it's side over the rear rack. This excludes the use of a tail trunk but, I think I can live w/o that while I go to the range. I have a Drago 36" back-pack style soft case but, it rests on the rear seat and touches the...

    Gun mounting

    Yes, oKLRider, the laws here are the same, I'd have to transport all the shells in one of panniers.

    Gun mounting

    I had to have a scabbard that will seal the dust out, I have 4 miles of gravel before I get to the pavement. Yeah, I'll get that right out to you to see if it'll go in. You want to try a Tavor too? ::003::

    Gun mounting

    Iguess if you're going to mount a gun, it could always be done with a belt fed machine gun! lol What was I thinking? Maybe the people 2 miles away behind were I'm shooting might be a little upset though. ::012::

    ::012:: Have you ever been stopped and questioned? Police give you the stink eye?

    Gun mounting

    It could be broken down further but, it's shorter than the barrel length of most shotguns used for skeet. The scabbard I modified is 31" long now, this allows a 4" long choke/extension to be fit and gives it a total barrel length of 22.5" and total gun length of 30". The Benelli is almost 50"...

    Gun mounting

    I'm sure there are more people than me here that enjoy shooting. Since skeet shooting and sporting clays are about to start, I was trying to find a way to mount a scabbard on the S10. There were a couple interesting places. Kolpin makes the scabbard and I custom fit it to my Kel Tec KSG and...

    A moral imperative

    Anything short of a Dunlop Geomax is going to be bad on loose gravel. TKC80s didn't work as well as they looked like they would on gravel. Prob why they wore so fast too. I rode with TC in mode 1 most of the time but you could easily get the TC light at nearly any speed. Same as with the stock...

    A moral imperative

    So what is the best tire then for gravel and pavement that wears decently. TKC80 front was 2/3 worn out @ 2500 miles and the rear was toast. I'd like to see twice that for the rear tire. Am I just going to use street tires and put up with their slipperiness on gravel? I drive 4.8 mile on gravel...

    A moral imperative

    -5 deg on the outside thermometer on my deck. The 'ole 10 spun around twice and settled right into a 2000 rpm idle. Rode it to work. Only thing I need to be different is the Fly Trekker helmet to go away and use my Thor Force Carbon and dual pane Scott snowmobile goggles. Throttle action was...

    S10 Repaints

    How do you feel about custom painted helmets?

    Lowest readable temp?

    It was 21 deg this morning, so I didn't get to verify. It took 2 miles to adjust to the colder temp though.

    Lowest readable temp?

    It was air temp. Even if it wasn't air temp, that means the thermostat is bad.

    Lowest readable temp?

    I pulled the S10 out of the garage, the air temp gauge says 56. 2 miles down the road, it says "Lo". At what temp does this stop reading the outside air temp? The K16GTL, FJR, truck and 4Runner all said 8.
