Motorcycles BS Thread 2.0

Got her first ride in. She handled it great

 

since i forgot to show you the mess of my garage here ya go! and ya ya i know it needs sheetrock up there... older house different code or some bs is what i was told... gotta do it my self one of these days!

 

For me it was when I was in my late 20's doing spartan races right around when we got married. I am about to hit 10 years married and my goal was to get back to my 27 year old self by our anniversary. Was going great until the enduros got cancelled and I bailed on working out as much to accomplish dad/son camp trip goals. Back at it now though with a month to go. Should at least get halfway there in a month lol.



Me at 28 ^ Wifey on the right.

My two biggest issues is BEER IS DELICIOUS and around 35 I noticed my metabolism slowed down a ton.

 

Been out of this thread for a minute. Went to Michigan a couple weeks ago with some buddies for 3 days of riding. Their OHV/Bike trail systems are incredible up there, only $36 for a permit for the year.

Watch me almost get run over on the second video lol.

 

cant see the video but was it a sidexside that about hit you lol thats normally the issue out here

 

You got some space!

 

haha some but its running out! just wait until i strip the other coupe down and have an engine/trans combo, full cooling system, full exhaust system, wheels and tires, coilovers, and many many more odds and ends in my garage... the gf is gonna kill me lmao. i gotta work on moving a shelf i dont use much to put my compressor over on the wall so its not in the way anymore... also the tacomas new wheels (the ones in the stack) should hopefully be installed this week so those wont be in the way anymore. then gotta mount the spare underneath the truck instead of the stock one that isnt useful anymore lol. so that should clear up some more room haha

 

Nope my buddy who was riding behind me. We were on single track trails so bikes only. Odd you can't see the video, I think my account is public.

 

im at work lol insta is blocked its me not you i promise haha

 

I'll restore it with Red-Kote after a deep search on DIY on YouTube. Thanks for the hint.

 

looking at sadle bags for the bike so we wont always need to carry a backpack with us so the gf can then rest on the sissy bar. has anyone used viking bags?

good price it seems for a simple set of sadle bags for the back of the bike. i dont want anything crazy or that sticks out tbh. buddy of mine loves these ones and told me to check them out but figured id ask you all your thoughts or if you have ran them before?


also looking for a wider passenger seat for her as well. ive found a few for a decent ish price that we might try for her.

also trying to find different foot pegs for her. the standard pegs that im use to is not great for her feet so trying to either find adjustable ones or flat ones so its not one point of pressure on her.

 

Lol I am in great shape and eat well, sometimes you just sleep wrong and wake up with things tweaked. Or you high side at a low speed and suffer the consequences

 

or hit a curb.. and a boulder.. or flip a few atvs.. maybe a go cart or two.... annnnnnd one sidexside

 

lol those definitely don't help either

 

I took my Two Brothers cans off and went back to OEM. I’m digging the quietness!

Now, to sell the TBR cans. Anyone ride an FJR that’s looking for some new mufflers?

 

I know there are a few of us on here who have their IBA membership numbers like @FreshOldTaco and @but why tho. I also know that at least @FreshOldTaco and myself have read the book Pushing Miles about the absolutely insane Guinness World Record ride criss-crossing the US by Wendy Crockett and Ian McPhee but now they've posted some of the video footage to YouTube.
