Rdcnslr commented on Robin Willey's blog post '1100 V-star TROUBLE'

Robin, Sorry to hear about the breakdown. Sure does not sound like the usual stories about the 1100. How new was it? Did you buy it used? Didn't you ride the 650 for a long time? I have not been on the site much so have missed connecting with people…

This was one of the more gentle curves and easy to read. Some were not so gentle and hard to read in the morning shade (inside curves). None were designed to make time but good for riding and seeing the countryside.

Thanks. I have it close to two years and really love the way it rides and handles the corners. My first Star/Yamaha bike. (V-Star 1300, 2008)

Hell's Canyon Motorcycle Rally, 2010

Just posted pics from the Hell's Canyon Motorcycle Rally in Baker City, Oregon, held June 11-14, 2010. The four days were beautiful riding weather, mid to upper 60's. The rally was well attended and all had a good time. I did not do the Hell's Canyon run as I had completed that in 2009 (see pics). Went by way of Hereford, Unity, Sumpter, Granite, Ukiah, Hilgard, Le Grande, Union and back to Baker City, close to 300 mile ride. If you have not attended this rally, you really have missed a great ra… Continue

Where is everyone?

I haven't seen much action on the site, recently. Is everyone on the road and not having time to post? I hope that is the reason. This is a good site and used to have lots of posts. I hope the 'blogger innapropriates' haven't driven good people away. Let us know what you are doing and have planned. This is the season, so let the rides begin.

Inappropriate use of the site, AGAIN!

I see we have some bloggers that seem to think this is an advertising site for junk drugs. Too bad they don't get the message! GET OFF this site!

Sportster 1200 Custom

I was asked by a friend to drive her new, 2008 Sportster 1200 Custom from Boise to McCall as she is not licensed. I was glad to oblige since I had once considered a 1200 Custom as my bike of choice and affordability. The bike weighs in at about 560+ pounds so is not a light weight anymore (older 1200's used to be below 500 lbs). The bike comes stock with custom seat, wire wheel up front, 5 speed transmission, forward controls (a must on any bike in my opinion), a 150/80 rear tire, self-cancellin… Continue

At 10:39am on April 23, 2010, Larry Walther said…: Bummer it is, Mike. How about this one: This morning I was at Moline International Airport to send off an Honor Flight (we fly WWII vets into D.C. on a 20 hour trip to visit monuments, the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier and more, then return home). As I pulled into the special lane the Patriot Guard uses, my bike just quit - everything, including lights, ignition, the works. I coasted to a stop, trying all the time to relight it using the 3rd & 4th gear and popping the clutch, but nothing worked.

When I came to a full stop I turned the key off, then on again and hit the starter, and it fired right up. After the flight left I went back to the bike and opened the battery compartment and checked all connections. Nothing loose, nothing broken that I can find. Then I rode home behind a cage (car) owned by a neighbor, and in 30 miles, couldn't get it to hiccup.

Tried again at home and it's still acting like "What, me?? I didn't do nothin'". LOL! Sometimes you just want to shoot 'em, but with my luck, it would survive the gunshot wound and leave me with more bills to pay. Ride safe, and let me know how the engine guard works out - that's strange.

It separated the 'owners' from the riders. Ran across a guy last week that told me he only goes for about 1,000 miles a year, and only in good weather. I'm stll trying to understand that.

At 9:40am on March 15, 2010, Sherry Forrest said…: That's such a generous offer, thank you so much! I was actually thinking of going east on 12 out of WA, then south on 95 either all the way to Boise, or hopping on 55 to Boise. I just might pop in and say hello, or at least call on my way through. I'll probably spend the first night of my trip in Clarkston WA or Lewiston, then I would be in your area early the next day. I'll let you know.

At 9:18am on March 15, 2010, Sherry Forrest said…: Hey, how're you doing? I'm planning a road trip for June-July, but will only take 2-3 weeks this year instead of a month. My youngest (31) is making me a first-time Grandma so I'll spend my last week with her. I plan on going through ID, UT, into AZ, then back through eastern CA and ride through Joshua Tree, Yosemite and Death Valley, then up through central OR and home.
