Buddy has a pretty clean, green, 1974 Yami DT 360 A...It had sat for a year or 2 and was all gummed up. He has no clue mechanically so I offered to help him out. I pulled the carb and soaked it over night in McKays carb cleaner bucket. I gently cleaned all ports and venturies and jets with a...

My daughter is getting married on 9/21/14 and I am picking a song for us to dance to. My daughter is very vintage in style and classic. Her wedding dress is 100 yrs old. We are VERY close and I do not want to sappy of a song so I do not embarrass myself or her getting too choked up, I expect to...

My daughter is getting married Sept. 21, 2014. It has been a CRAZY few months since the kids decided they want to keep life simple and mobile and live in an Airstream trailer. We bought one together and set at remodeling it from frame up...wow what a job. I and the kids are working day and...

Does anyone know of a stocking dealer for the FX 41 in southern California? I am crazy fussy with my feet, hands and head for fit and a helmet test fit is a MUST. I can only find them online at revzilla and superstore...don't want to have to send it back.

Buster Poindexter must have ridden my Super 10. It is hot enough that I am worried a bit. What I feel is my left frame guard is fine, barely warm. But my right frame guard is on fire. It has been hot around here lately...100* or so. I am NOT an ATGATT guy..I know I know..whahh whahhh whahh...

I have posted before about the reasons I ride, wind in the face, head clearing, freedom....but it really boils down to moments. Let's face it, lane splitting in rush hour traffic is not exhilarating or fun and exciting. Eating miles on I-10 is not mind blowing and wildly exciting, unless of...

So I posted a few weeks ago about a fine young man asking for my daughters hand http://www.yamahasupertenere.com/index.php?topic=11623.0 So after he asked her in early May we have been very busy since the wedding will be Sept 21, 2014...busy times. They are advancing their ministry plans...

Anyone who is a parent, especially if you have younger children, do not miss a minute with them if you can avoid it. Obviously we all need to make a living, and there will be things that are unavoidable that we will miss. My advise is NEVER miss any time or event willingly that could be spent...

I am in need of a career change after a life of heavy construction was ended by a ladder fall and has resulted in 2 consecutive neck surgeries. An hourly job is not likely in my situation, looking down at a desk/computer/paperwork for more than a few minutes kills my neck. I am looking at...

If it were not for our amazing weather and some pretty dang good roads....California would suck rocks....who calls Sriracha a nuisance ???? Only Cali http://news.yahoo.com/california-city-declares-sriracha-maker-nuisance-043828172.html

Just curious if anyone knows of a small portable XM/sirrus satellite that a person could carry? I have looked all over the net and it appears as though every system needs to run through some other head unit and antennae system. I see how nice and compact satellite nav systems are and they...

Here are the pics of my Arizona journey. The first 106 are this trip, after that you get into my BMW parts and build....feel free to look, but that is old news https://maps.google.com/maps?hq=http://maps.google.com/help/maps/directions/driving/mapleft.kml&f=d&dirflg=d All family friendly pics...

I just back from a 78 hour road trip that included about every cool thing in Arizona and some great stuff in Utah. Hikes, views, and tons of wildlife and scenery, but that is another thread. This is a commentary on the Super Tenere and it manners, performance and handling on a trip than...

In this graph of the Ten review I would say most of us would be in the ball park on the assessment. Performance compared to other bikes...better than average, looks, everything pretty legit....UNTIL, you get to "value for the money" category where the Ten is rated lower than average...? Really...

No not to the site...stop cheering ::025:: My new Canadian friends headed home today after a week of So Cal fun in the sun...and rain. I had a great time getting to meet Greg {Greg the Pole} and putting a few miles on with him and his buddy Willy {not a member } I would say that if any of you...

Ask me how I know that the pillion seat on an FZ-09 is NOT meant for riding on....go ahead ask me I will tell you anyway, So I am out on a great ride with Greg the Pole, even though cold, rainy, foggy, and slimy at times it was still a great day. I got gas a at 11:00 am and off we went. Nice...
