It was postponed to August 29th and today I got notice it has been cancelled. They are in the process of full refunds for those who bought advance tickets. Dammit! :thumbdown

Not sure why I looked, but the Arlen Ness website only shows they're doing parts, custom and otherwise, for Indian, Harley and Victory. I did a dealer search on the Indian website and the Arlen Ness dealership is not listed. Anybody know the story?

So Stoked! :thumbup I haven't been to the Sacramento venue in many, many years, looking forward to seeing flat track action again. On the other hand,does anyone know the parking/gate number for this event!

This is a 2005 Goldwing and the fog lamp button (upper right) is stuck on. Its one of those switches where you push it in for on, push it again and its supposed to pop out for off. Does anyone know an effective way to unstick this switch? I tried getting to the back of it and its all sealed...

Not sure about this, but I'll bet the 2019 Harley's that have the "FVCK" prefix to the VIN will be in high demand.

Sometimes I just get fed up....

I've had a system that is in dire need of upgrading and a job that will require a good tool. (Goldwing needs the clutch bled) So to the BARF brain trust, what is your go to brake/clutch bleed tool?

This short video is how an engineer challenged himself to relearn a different bicycle. But it is interesting how ingrained the motor memory is that it is very difficult to relearn another way to do something. For riders who have ridden motorcycles with GP shift pattern or attempted to ride a...

My insurance company has sent me three requests to garner my interest in "In-Drive", an on board device that will monitor my riding/driving and "allow me to control my discount". For now I can ignore such requests. Due to the number of inquires, this has me worried. While I feel that I'm a safe...

Not really hate, but more like dread. If you remember, two and half weeks ago I was out on my '09 SMC and it let me down due to a dead battery. If not for the kindness of a stranger, could have been a much longer day. Today, I was traveling down the freeway on my '05 Goldwing, 50 miles from...

A million thanks to the fellow KTM rider in the late model white Ford F250 who turned off of freeway 680 between Martinez and Fairfield to help me! :thumbup I was coming back from breakfast and a ride around Berryessa, and as fate would have it, when I started my 690 SMC in this morning, the...

I didn't see anyone mention it, so for those interested, its on Fox sports 1 @ 7:00p. :thumbup Should be interesting to see since Villopoto is competing in world MX so Mitch Payton has Millsaps and Hahn heading up the 450 class. FWIW

My wife is thinking of taking this course http://care2ride.net/ with a co-worker that has already signed up. She is a non-rider, her only motorcycle experience is as a passenger with me. Thoughts, comments, anecdotes?
