Anyone riding up to Oregon for the eclipse? I'm planning on riding up the coast to the Newport area but no plans other than that. Maybe staying in Coos Bay as I lived there for a while and haven't been back in ages and I think the hotels around Newport are pretty full. Let me know if you're...

Guy Martin's recent incident at IOMTT brought up something that's confused me for a while: what are the functional differences between engine braking and braking with the pedal? Intuitively they seem very similar -- and exactly the same in toy force models i can picture -- but neutral+pedal...

I'm planning on riding down the coast tomorrow, staying in Los Osos for a night on my way to L.A. I thought I had read that there's a way through the Pfeiffer bridge closure and was going to take 1 to Nacimiento-Ferguson to get around the Ragged Point closure. It looks like I was wrong...

Anyone know of a shop similar to Cycle Terminal or Eastern Beaver in the Bay Area? I want to wire my farkles correctly and prefer to be able to go in and check stuff out in person (and have a place to run to when I screw up my last terminal, etc...) I ran down to San Mateo Electronics but...

I'm toying with the idea of buying a bike through a lien sale. The bike doesn't have plates and the lien holder doesn't know what the license is. When trying to calculate fees for CA registration, I get "Unable to determine registration fees due. New license plate required". Is there...

Just curious if anyone is heading out on Sunday. Thinking it might be fun to go roll around a bit.

Quick mellow ride over Mt. Tam and into Fairfax to bid the year adieu. Meet 9 AM December 31st at House of Bagels in SF . We'll make our way to Gestalt Haus in Fairfax via Panoramic Rd., Pan Toll Rd, Ridgecrest Blvd, and Fairfax-Bolinas Rd. More info here.

I'd like to take a look at and try on some 'stich pants. I'm looking at the AD1 and the Utility. Curious about Darien, too. I think I'm size 30 or 32 R. If you've got something like this and are willing to let me try it on, let me know and I'll bring you coffee or beer for the inconvenience...

I was cruising around 80 MPH Saturday night on HWY 80 somewhere between Vacaville and Fairfield. CHiP pulls next to me and as far as I can tell gives me a warning to slow down: E7WfOYBEGjM https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E7WfOYBEGjM If you're here, thanks for the warning! It did leave me...

Work is too crazy for me right now, unfortunately. C group. $125 OBO Edit: fuck it; I'm going myself.

LEO said he's at the hospital with a broken arm; no damage to the head. Looked like a blacked out Ducati of some sort. Termi exhaust. Totaled. Heal up buddy. I have a video of the aftermath if you want it.

Last Friday on 35 Southbound I passed a couple of riders and waved with my right foot to show gratitude/solidarity right afterwards. Long story short, we ended up parked next to each other on 35 between 9 and 17 and one guy wanted to kick my ass because, as he saw it, I made a gesture that...

So, ideally I'd have a scooter for practical city usage, a motard for fun city riding, a sportier bike for the twisties, and a R1200(R|S)T for touring. But, of course, I only have room and money for one bike. I currently have a '10 Monster 696, which I use for all of the above, but it's pretty...

I'm thinking about riding out to see my sister in Missoula sometime this year. Anybody have any recommendations for routes I should take? I've made a rough sketch for both directions: SF -> MSO: https://goo.gl/maps/6ky2zgk26tN2 MSO -> SF: https://goo.gl/maps/VuppSPsfekC2 I don't know how...

Hi all, I've been wanting to ride for ages, and I finally pulled the trigger not too long ago. I've been riding aimlessly daily for about two weeks and absolutely loving it. How did I live in SF for this long (~12 years?) and _not_ have a motorcycle or scooter??!!!?? It's opened up the city...
