Realize this isn't a MC forum but hey....why not post about them? I've been into bikes a good part of my adult life and have always wanted an ADV bike. I've had a metric cruiser, a naked Buell and currently have a GS. Never been into sportbikes or anything crazy.
The GS got new tires today...
How do you tell the difference between a Dana 60 and a Super 60 by looking at it? Just curious... this is from the order guide which says 250-350-450 get the Super 60 for 2013, but can only find conflicting stories. Some say the 450 is the only one to get the super while the 250-350 get the...
I'd like to get a sea kayak or a canoe to use mainly in the river and bay near me. Any recommendations?
I've rented both before at places I've traveled to but don't really know much about them.

It comes with 5 of his tunes... I chose:
87 tow
87 perf
93 economy
93 tow
93 perf :)
Looking forward to getting this, everyone that has run the 87 and 93 perf tunes has said that it feels like a...
Not exciting I know, but I like doing and don't have to pay someone else.
Oil change (2600 mi) and one of the first times I had been under it... took some crappy phone pics.
Filter and 7qts of 5W20:
Under the hood... lots of plastic. The engine sits way back.
Looking backwards
It's got a...
Thinking about doing a brake upgrade to the car... come to find out it has the same 312mm rotors as a Boxter and all it takes is a set of brackets, calipers and ss lines to upgrade from the single piston factory calipers to a set of 4 piston fixed mono block calipers off of a 99-up 2.7L Boxter...
I've seen a couple of UOAs with Delvac 1 in TDIs and they have been excellent.
This oil doesn't meet the VW specs for use in the CR engines because the sulfated ash (1.0%) is greater than the 0.6% in the VW spec and it's heavier instead of their 5w30. I highly doubt that small difference is...
I created a report in SSRS for the finance people this week from one of our cubes so they can use it for their 3rd quarter planning because they were scratching their heads trying to pivot that much data.
This is no lie... the damn report renders out to 123 columns wide and who knows how many...
It isn't a truck, but does run on no 2.
Turned over 10k this week, so I did my oil & filter and rotated the tires. Never worked on vehicle with lug bolts before... thank God the tires aren't very heavy, that's all I'm saying.
I ordered enough filters for the 10 and 20k service. 10k only...
I've been into bikes now for probably 10 years. Racing the past 6 or so. My current bike is 3 years old and gets beat to death in races... it's starting to show some hairline cracks in the paint where the tubes meet the neck which have me worried.
The guy at the shop that sponsors our team is...
I had all the parts sitting in the closet in my office since December and got around to putting everything together. There's a 5,200 acre nature preserve around a huge resivor which is literally a ~5 minute ride from my house, so I threw the pedals from my road bike on and took it out for a...
Does anyone know of a smaller filter head or a filter combo that I can use to fab a pre-OEM fuel filter like the ones some of us made for our Dmaxes? The stock filter housing doesn't have a drain on it, and I'd maybe like to install two filters if possible. One on the inlet to the pump and one...
I'm scheduled to take 2 five day Microsoft boot camps- one on SSIS and one on SSRS. Work is pushing a couple of us to get MCTS certifications.
Configuring ETL packages is one of the most frustrating things I think I've ever done.
There was one in front of me this morning with some dude driving like he had stolen it. Weaving in and out of traffic, tailgating, doing probably 70 in a 45, stopping at every light with all the people he just cut off... the typical douchebag.
We're getting on the elevated expressway, he now...
Will someone do me a favor... pull the turbo intake off your truck while it's cold and check to see if there is any side-side movement when you grab the compressor shaft and try to move it?
I was doing some cleaning last weekend, decided for whatever reason to do this and was kind of...
I already had an impact that has trouble removing lug nuts sometimes, so I went out and bought this thing before I did my brakes last weekend.
Gotta say, for $89 it is well worth it. It was able to break loose the 21 mm caliper bracket bolts that had some serious high strength thread locker...
