    2011 Honda CB1000R

    This had to be the most slept-on naked sport of the decade. In this country, anyway. I mean, ok - it needed suspension upgrades to be ridden with 'spirit' - which I promptly took care of with 3-way Ohlins at the rear and Race Tech springs and gold valves up front. It turned an already agile...

    Fabbing custom metal parts for belly pan

    Well, it's high time I put my barely mechanically-inclined brain to work and build something with my non-callused hands. I want to mount a belly pan to my bike. If I go with all of the necessary OEM hardware, I'm looking at over $600 (thanks, Aprilia). I found the actual plastic fairing for...

    Scummy landlord cancels lease

    Caution: wall of text ahead! I plan on discussing this with a RE attorney, tenant rights advocate agency or both soon but figured i'd do the 2nd-most sensible thing... post it on BARF for some feedback. :laughing Surely there are some astute landlords and tenants in here who would be happy...

    Marin 101 South - UPDATE suspect arrested May 9, 2019

    I just passed the aftermath of a horrific accident involving at least one motorcycle on my way home. 101 South, between Corte Madera and Mill Valley. Pretty sure I saw a yellow tarp :( There was another rider at the side of the highway, seemingly uninjured. I'm assuming the fatality was a...

    Highsides 'n Hematomas

    Had my first 'official' get-off last weekend. Went over the bars and hit the pavement square with my thigh. No breaks, just some gnar bruising and an impressive hematoma w/ numbness - orthopedist says the best course of action is to just RICE it up. Draining apparently isn't worth it since...

    Homeowner's Insurance - high risk areas

    We own a house up near Oroville, in the mountains. Paid a very reasonable $750/year for a full landlord policy on the home from 2011 through the end of 2016. There was a bad fire up near there a few weeks ago... prompted me to call my agent, just so I could be clear on coverages in case of...

    Naked Honda Fireblade on the way?

    About friggin time... although what I really want to see is a new naked V4 from Honda. Regardless, CB1000R enthusiasts unite! (all five of us!) :Party No idea if this is what it will look like. Kinda hope not; this retro stuff is overdone imo.

    Graphics (re)application

    i'm about to revitalize the adhesion of the oem graphics to the plastic shrouds of my new-to-me 08 Beta 525 sumo..... plan is to remove the vinyl, use quick-dry contact cleaner to get all the dirt off the adhesive sides, wipe down the plastics with said cleaner, then reapply vinyl using 3M...

    2017 Husqvarna 1301 Something-Or-Other

    Was wondering when we'd hear of a Husky utilizing the 1290 powerplant... But this? http://www.motorcyclistonline.com/spied-2017-husqvarna-1301-power-cruiser-prototype-spy-shots#page-3 Looks interesting. I just hope this bike turns out to be more Super Duke R Dragster and less Diavel-slayer.

    Husaberg parts availability

    I've been reading great things about the 2009+ FE models and considering a purchase. Bunch of owners claiming 500+ hours/15,000+ miles on their original motors. If I roll the dice on one and find that it needs some rebuilding relatively soon after, what's the lay of the land these days as...

    Tough love

    It's downright crucial for so many kids and young adults yet it seems most parents these days don't employ it. Good on this dad though:

    Older manfacture dates on new tires

    This is the third and last time (big online retailer xyz) sent me 2+ year old rubber. I don't care that it falls well within the "generally-accepted shelf life" for tires. Unless they store them individually in an airtight container, tires age rather quickly. 2 or 3 years in a warehouse? with...

    Stock Investment Opportunity

    Looks like that last "MarketBBQ1!" thread fell off. Oh well. In that thread, I strongly suggested that people scale into precious metal mining company stocks. It was 2nd week in February IIRC. Well, here is my state of the market report, using February 10th as a fair benchmark: Dow Jones...

    Link between MMR & autism is apparent
