Re: All You Lucky #&^@!*(@#^

It's been a deep freeze here for about two months now, around -15 on average… but we did have some respite in the last few days where it rocketed up to -8. Today was considered seasonable, so I guess I don't have many complaints… but it's still a bitch to travel highways completely covered in ice a...

Re: Hibernation

I had a tough time keeping up with Squirm, on his TR-6, and Stan, of V8 Choppers, on his Kawi W650, but I did OK with a half ton motorcycle on a twisty road. The only casualty was my kickstand spring. This is the second one that I've ground off. I have to figure out a better setup. Great, you final...

On the PC at work, with Explorer it's bigger now.
At home, with Firefox it is still the same as before.

Both sizes are OK for me...

Re: Riding Temperature

As I'm the trigger for this thread I 'have' to answer... You all know I live in Switzerland and I ride a lot. Therfore I start with temperatures around freezing (0°C / 30°F) or sometimes even below. :eye_crazy: At these temperatures it's just to ride into town and back. Usually a 15min ride in good ...

I got the thermometer and a clock on my BB, and I just love them...

Just sometimes the dials are pointing wrong. Like today, the temperatur showed 45°F that must be wrong :roll:

Re: Website blocked by company IT due to category "Web Chat"

That's interesting.

For me it works the other way round.
This site is open all day long, and the other US site is open between 12:00 and 13:00 and 17:00 and 08:00.

Re: 9th Int. Meeting at Pullman City Germany

Thank you for the videos Mark!

As for riding a BH at the rally, it does not matter what you ride!
We had guests from USA and Australia some years ago, they rented HD's and had a lot of fun.

Come over and have a party!

Re: How fast have you been on your V8?

On my SB I rode twice 200km/h (122miles/h) for 10 to 15 min on the German Autobahn, at least that's what the speedo read. It ran really stable, no shaking or bouncing. :ridding: I was once up to 230km/h (140miles/h) for 5 min but that was no fun... That was more floating than really riding :yikes: I...

Re: Switzerland in February

The pictures are great! Is that a road or a quad trail you guys are on? If it's a trail then you guys sure do a great job keeping them clear! This is an official road. OK it's not the main road but still you have quite a bit of traffic going trough there. In the Appenzellerland they don't use salt,...
