Anyone know anything about this new concept to make bikes more expensive? Kawasaki to Develop Motorcycles with Artificial Intelligence…and Emotion http://ridermagazine.com/2016/09/09/kawasaki-to-develop-motorcycles-with-artificial-intelligenceand-emotion/

RIP rider :rip I heard about this just as I pulled into Fort Bragg yesterday. I was coming from the north down Hwy 1. This happened on Hwy 20. Motorcyclist and his passenger were coming into Fort Bragg west from 101. Took a turn too wide and ran into a semi. Stay safe out there folks. Life is...

I haven't ridden 36 in some time, and I'd like to do it next week from Red Bluff to Fortuna. Caltrans website says the road is open with no restrictions, but the CA Wildfire map shows a fire going across the highway south of Hayfork, just west of the intersection with 3. Does anyone have any...

I'm moving and don't have room for these parts: Stock muffler - probably less than 5k miles. Came with the bike. I never used it. Stock saddle - has three holes drilled thru the pillion. I bolted a topcase onto it, but had to destroy the topcase because the key broke off in the lock with my...

Yesterday I lost the key to my VFR800. I thought I had a spare at home, but when I got there I couldn't find it anywhere. Fortunately, I found the original (it had fallen smack under the rear tire), but now it's time to get a couple spares. Anyone have a recommendation for a good place that...

I'm sure that that is a question that almost nobody has asked. But I will tell you anyway ;) It's a long story that began 5 1/2 months ago when I was struck by a red light runner in San Francisco Tenderloin. And when I say red light, I mean it wasn't even close. Yes, I was first off the line...

Has anyone been on Ebbetts/Monitor/Sonora Passes recently? I am thinking of riding up there next week and wondering what condition the roads are in. Haven't been up there all year and need to go before winter closes them!

If you want to rent a car, use ZipCar or similar, what do you do for insurance? I am sick of the exorbitant per-day charges that car rental companies charge for even liability only insurance. Today I called my carrier (Progressive) and asked if there was any way I could temporarily put a...

Which Barfers is that on the FZ1 and Vstrom? Where are you riding manana?

This is a longshot, I know. But hey, it's BARF, so it's worth a try. I have been looking for a parts bike to fix up my KLR that got hit by a left-turner in March. They are pretty scarce for something anywhere near what I can afford. Found this one on Craigslist...

Came out of work today at 8:00pm, bike not there. Couldn't believe that anyone would want to steal my p.o.s KLR (after someone took a left turn into it a couple months ago). Looked it up online and sure enough, it had been towed. No reason given, no signs indicating No Parking. This is where...

And no wisecracks about the 6-year old virgin kneepucks! :twofinger

http://yosemite.epa.gov/opa/admpress.nsf/0/c5b48e8bdf631b478525799800549202?OpenDocument Saw this on television news today, but so far nothing but this press release in print.

Rider down Bay Bridge EB around 6:00. I was going WB in a car. Traffic was backed up WB, almost stopped EB. WB traffic was almost all rubberneckers :rolleyes. Saw them loading a bike onto a tow truck. Maybe like a sporty standard - Kawi 650, perhaps? Black. Could not see rider, I was 3...

Someone sent me this link because of my interest in motorcycling. Don't know the group, and I can't attend anyway because of work. But I thought it looked interesting, and it's almost in the Bay Area. Just passing the information along...

Black Monster with orange striping. Corner of Montgomery and Clay by Transamerica pyramid. Your parking light is on.

Today on Mount Diablo. You on the black Road King full dresser. Me on the bicycle. After you left the summit, I gave you a full 10 minutes head start so I wouldn't encounter you on the way down. A little surprised to catch up with you only a few miles down the road, but no big deal... I...

Last minute, but does anyone want to do a day ride tomorrow? I am in SF, looking to ride 200 - 250 miles. Can do N. Bay, E. Bay, So. Bay, let me know. Not interested in a large group, just 1 or two riders who have the day off and want to do a mellow-to-spirited (I'm open) B. A. ride. Looking...
