Have subscribed to Motorcycle Consumer News for quite a long time, paper and digital. I had gladly left Cycle World and Rider a long time ago. Got a letter today saying the Jan. issue was the last. Too bad, to me they got into more detail, good and bad than any other read.

And lets not forget a motorcycle rider as well.

I bought my '01 back in '05 ( I think). The owner had died and his former wife's boyfriend wanted it gone. It had been in a metal shed with bird crap on it and looked rough. I tried buffing out the scoops but some corrosion was too deep. I got them powder coated black. I usually don't think...

It is sad that even after getting whacked by a car the ***** doesn't pause to think "how did I contribute to this happening?" On a motorcycle I think about how to avoid a situation, like most people with a brain do. Sorry *** interview not bringing up his riding the double yellow. But; I do...

Gentsvmax;That was an incredibly intense story. Glad you came out ok on it. I couldn't take my eyes off it, I know the area your talking about and can only imagine the traffic mess. Mostly compared to where I live the drivers in Colorado are pretty good, bicycles are another matter. Sorry you...

Driver was Way at fault but...bicycle rider should do what he can to avoid a situation

Tractors are traveling to another field to grow food, school buses are taking kids to school, bicycle riders are just riding around. Not much a problem here, usually the more urban there are more bicycles. Which makes things worse. There were two riders near Nashville and one was in the middle...

Well said CasseyJones

Very sorry for you and your family loss.

Sorry to be redundant in some of the things I say, I keep saying the same things in my mind over and over too.

Thanks all. Yea the perp has multiple charges including vehicular homicide and no bond. Third DUI. My buddy usually drove a full size extended cab but was in a small S-10. I don't know why that is. The road was so straight with signs and a flagman, someone would have been killed eventually. This...

Not local PD face book but local Newspaper...

Well now I do know; the person responsible for this is charged with vehicular homicide and driving under the influence third offense. Also drug possession and a few more things.

Word is getting around the person that caused this was under the influence and had been several prior driving under the influence arrest and license taken away. This was the facebook of the local police dept. Thanks for all your condolences. Julian is correct, leave an escape route. Taking the...

To be clear on what I have said, D.O.T. was not the cause, but were there.This would be a good time to stress people slow down in zones where signage and flagmen are present. Also he usually drove a full size extended cab truck, still not sure why he was in the S-10.

A friend I worked with has died in a terrible car wreck. He was returning from a Dr. appointment where he got cleared to go back to work after knee surgery. He came upon road construction and had to stop when a flagman stopped traffic. There was one car in front of him and weather was clear and...

Someone on here (I think) said they add a cap full or two of synthetic two stroke oil (Stihl) to a full tank with stabilizer. It keeps the o rings and rubber parts flexible. I don't know if it works, but I have been doing it ever since I read that. I also read on another forum (single cyl. dirt...

Of course no mod needed, a stock Vmax is pretty cool machine. For some reason they all get mods!

Just when I thought my bike was in good shape now I am worried about my wheel bearings....add that to the list to do!
