I just picked up a new to me 1200gsa and it has a throttle lock on it. I dont understand how i have ever rode any distance with out one, now that i have one.

I have a few family and friends telling me the same thing as I prep for my third attempt this Saturday. If your interested i would check out the iron butt association site. They are more about safety than everything else. This is why I am on my third attempt. The first attempt was stupid and in January, a loop from…

Sorry for the second comment but I think a few people dont understand how the flats work. Dont think of the flats like a hard area of dirt. Think of it more like a frozen lake. The lake is full of water and salt. Just like a frozen layer of ice, the salt dries on the top. If the “ice” is to thin it wont hold enough…

I was wondering if it would work. I was just out there last Thursday and right off the end of the access road there was standing water. I wouldnt take my bike on it and I already saw a jeep resting its frame on the salt just off the highway. Still an amazing place to visit and I recommend anyone go out there. Actually…

Or just go to craters of the moon. Oh wait. Dont go. It sucks. Who would ever go to Idaho. Really just turn around and go south. I mean most of you tried to go to Idaho and ended up in Iowa, and we are ok with that. So honestly. Nothing in Idaho. Stay away. Yes that might of been the sound of a shotgun loading in the…

So the best one i have seen I am actually kind of impressed, even though i tried to play them and they were one step ahead of me. So here it is. Free Ipad with test drive. Ha ha. fine I will go listen to your crap for an hour and take a test drive. At this point my wife is all about seeing how this will go so we head…

Not to stray from your very valid point (even though i do want to see this kid set a vomit distance record with her buckled in and not able to move out of the way). But glove and diapers are a parenting win. not only do you not get anything on your hands, but when your done, hold the full diaper and pull the glove off…

I might be wrong but I think he is just picking up extra weight on the cool down lap before the final weigh in?

I hope they name it something that basically is a finger to the bcc. I tried to come up with a good idea but i dont have thoose skills. The best I have is “Not Top Gear” or “Reverse Gear” or “Clarkson, Hammond, and May’s Car Show”

Full Disclosure: I am jealous of you now.

But single car, smoke on, laps would be rad. Maybe two different colors out of each side of the car.

Can I daily drive that?

I agree. Spikes should be standard equipment on all racing bikes. .... ... oh wait, spikes are what your talking about right? :)

what frame is that?

I just backed up my work computer just today. Not because i worry about loosing data due to a hardware failure but because I am about 2 weeks out from telling this job were to shove it.

A good wife would give you a hand.

I think I was around 8 and remember learning about it soon after but really understanding what was going on later. What I dont remember is what we did after that. We were always making stuff.

I made one of these when I was a kid. I painted it black and put two lightning bolts on it. I was so proud, so I gave it to my dad. He threw it away. Later in life when I learned about WW2, I understood why.

And then we all start racing flying things. :)
