On May 14th, it will be legal for motorcyclists to "filter" to the front of the line at red stop lights, provided there are two or more lanes going that direction, can ride no more than 15 mph, and the posted speed limit is 45 mph or less (not sure why a speed limit restriction, if its at a red...

This was demonstrated at the CES in Las Vegas this past week: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ya7iacmVjUM (I now ride a BMW R1200 GS, so that's an extra thrill for me). This is pretty incredible, and I'm already dreaming of my bike starting up, leaving the parking spot, and driving up...

We've all seen ****pit video before, but this is unique: the camera pans around, and for the most part stays oriented with Earth, rather than the jet. Enjoy! https://www.youtube.com/watch?time_continue=481&v=jH_m_07_CuQ

My girl rode off with another guy this afternoon, after 10 years and 10 days. Fizzer was my first bike, She was a blast running up and down the mountains but my 37", arthritic inseam can't sit on Her for more than 90 minutes at a time; I want to do more touring and my '09 R1200 GS beemer (her...

I can't remember if this came up here or on my beemer forum. This was a "Kickstarter" for a universal throttle lock that, very smartly, was engaged/disengaged by a pushbutton accessible by your thumb, instead of trying to twist a lock with your throttle hand. I bought into the project, they...

Dammit. As most of you know I bought a 1200gs beemer 3 years ago, and have been trying (half-heartedly) to sell my '07 fizzer for the last two. Last fall my next door neighbor's kid really wanted to buy my bike, but didn't have the money. He and his dad asked if I'd keep it for them until...

I've had my Fizzer up for sale the last two years, asking $3K for my '07 with new tires, which I didn't think was out of bounds. Anyhoo, I kept starting it up and driving around a few miles every few months, to keep the battery charged and the fluids moving around. Last November I moved it...

'Zen And The Art of Motorcycle Maintenance' Author Robert M. Pirsig Dies At 88 : The Two-Way : NPR Read this book the year after I got my FZ, doesn't have that much to do with motorcycles but is more an odd philosophy look. I remember finishing the book on an airplane just as we were...

For 14 months I was the Chief Engineer for ICBM Maintenance here at Hill AFB, 2010-11. This morning, traffic was all screwed up coming into work, something happened on the main road between the west and east campuses on base. Soon learned there was a bad motorcycle/auto accident, then later...

NSFW, some bad words in here. But, this needs to be spread as far as possible, and possibly this person needs to have a visit.

Video: What would you do in this situation? - RevZilla Interesting little confrontation here. My initial thoughts: 1. Really dumb to honk at a cop in the first place. 2. A horn is a signalling device, not a "road rage" device. 3. Is cellphone usage in CO legal while driving? Discuss...

Prolly the coolest thing I've watched/read this year: WATCH: World War II Vets Start Dance Party at Airport | Fox News Insider :thumbup:

Victory Motorcycles is coming out with an all electric bike, end of this year. Only $20K! I've always liked the workmanship on Victories, only thing bad I've heard about them is their gearboxes aren't very smooth. Surprisingly, this thing has a six-speed gearbox! Electric cars that I know of...

Last night I had a good discussion with my next door neighbor, an Ogden police officer, really nice guy, beautiful wife and three kids in high school. He referred to his Yamaha Star in the past tense, I said "Wait, wat?!?" and learned he and his wife were victims of another inattentive...
