2015 Yamaha FZ-07 916 miles Extended service contract through 7/7/2020 (unlimited mileage, zero deductible) Meticulously broken in by an experienced rider 600 mile service performed by Mach 1 Motorsports in Vallejo Includes Yuasa battery tender I bought this bike thinking I’d have more...

Just like it says, this is my Roadcrafter, size 42L (6'-6'1", 34" inseam, 180lb more or less), used but excellent condition. No rips, tears, frays. The proverbial, "ridden gently, never been down". Realistically, this suit has 80%+ service life left, against the current new purchase price of...

I came across this link: http://safetycenter.navy.mil/media/seashore/SmartRide/PDFs/Smart_Ride_Magazine.pdf and thought there's some good stuff in there. Some of the information is random intermingling of cruiser and sport bike stuff, but still solid info. Anyway, this is the program that the...

Maybe someone here knows a solution to my problem, but if not maybe this can serve as a warning to others. I got a twenty20 helmet cam and an Archos 405 PVR to capture the audio/video. The 2GB version of the Archos 405 is all solid state, no hard drive to fail. This setup works pretty well...

I ran across this link: http://www.jockeyjournal.com/?p=235 on another forum and thought it was a cool glimpse at the earliest days of motorcycle racing. 130mph wearing a leather helmet? Yikes!

Maybe I should have posted this http://www.bayarearidersforum.com/forums/showthread.php?t=223447 in here.

In the vein of being prepared for roadside emergencies, I'm wondering what type of event(s) you've experienced that interrupted or ended your ride. Eg; I had a flat rear tire one time, and a guy I was riding with had a flat front. I don't know if I'm covering everything with the poll choices...

Kind of long and boring, but thought I'd share in case anyone is ever in a similar situation.... We're in Virginia for a one year job so we're not making a "total move", just setting up an apartment here for the duration. But we're spoiled when it comes to tv, etc, so I set out to put together...

Looks like Hayden pulled out a rabbit:

So there it is: http://www.apple.com/downloads/macosx/productivity_tools/microsoftoffice2004formacupdate.html Not the first, but the most recent. OS X may be quite secure, but keep an eye on what you install.

Does anyone here manage a mail server supporting 5K users with webmail access? I took a job and got in over my head. Fortunately for everyone, it's a management job. I'm now Dilbert's pointy haired boss, so the damage I can do is minimal. The details are involved, but I have to come up with...

These are two problems I contend with, commuting and touring, both of which often include cold damp early mornings riding east into the sun. I stumbled across this: http://www.scorpionusa.com/equipment/helmets/convkit.html Dual pane with electric heating element AND flip down sunshade in...
