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...

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

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...

-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...

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.

Did an event Saturday that was a timed parking lot race, solo version. Kind of like an autocross. It was put on by the Iowa Sate University Motorcycle Club. I had done one in '09 on my YSR50 with the 511cc YZ426F engine and it was a ton of fun. The S10 is a little different story, a lot taller...

I've always used snowmobile gloves. What has been the best pair you've had? I've been thinking about a set of KLIM's Caldera gloves. https://s3.amazonaws.com/klimproductimages/5033-000.jpg

I just went 32.6 miles after the fuel reserve started and ran it dry. Presumably there is 1.1 gal of reserve but that is of total capacity of the tank, which in reality can't be achieved w/o some spillage when filling it. I was actually expecting to get about the same distance on reserve as the...

My blue bikes. It's amazing how truly big the Tenere is until you get it next to something else you can scale it off of. Against the FJR it's not that different but, these 2 bikes, it's HUGE compared to them.

All 4 of them! J/K I know where there are 3 others that weren't there

I'm not sure how many of you have seen one of these things in operation, same as the R1, pretty spiffy really. This is a 2010 that had a reflashed ECU that is slower because of it. BUT, doesn't mean that it can't still pump out 177 hp and 115 lb/ft like it did on this run...

OK, you guys didn't like the most difficult one to build. How about the most expensive and exotic. This is a FZR750RRW that was converted at the Yamaha Factory to full racing specification to an OW01. It was shipped to the US in Nov of 1988 to Vance & Hines Racing where it was put into service...

We used to have quite the club until the track closed the gates. I had 22 of the little buggers in various forms. The rules we had were to maintian the YSR forks, chassis and wheel diameter. To me, that is an open invitation to do what you want. Aluminum swingarms, twin chamber fork internals...

What a race! ::022:: ::015:: Vale!!!!

Or maybe it was his own stupidity?!!! Riding along this morning minding my own business, nobody in front of me, nobody behind me, (in close proximity anyway), I'm watching my mirrors and see that there is a small SUV coming up in the left lane. It was/is really pretty windy and this vehicle was...

Real World bikes first. 1985 VMax, 4-2-1, K&N in the airbox, no lid, 123 rwhp/89 lb/ft on my dyno. Stock 2008 FJR with +5" width and +4" height windshield, Uni Filter foam air filter, 125 rwhp 90lb/ft on my dyno. 2012 S10, fuse mod, side bags on, Touratech winsdshield & mount, 88 rwhp 68 lb/ft...

Here's what I've noticed since reading this forum/board over the past week. 1) The ABSOLUTE #1 reason everyone is here is because of reliabilty and trouble-free operation. 2) Nobody cares about a name. Although it's fun to poke at the expensive blue/silver dollar. 3) Engine performance is a...

Where the beef is sweet and the pigs aren't quite sure whats around the next corner. This would be Iowa. This includes just a couple of favorite modes of transportation devices. Although there needs to be something done to the Tenere to combat the new GSW, that thing is FAST. What's the best...
