I see the hot blue bike (it's beautiful), but where's the gal? Was there another picture edited out for some reason?

What's this about:

"DJ [edited by doug - Please post pictures correctly, not a hard concept DJ] "


WTF ?

Al, Good luck to you. I'm jealous! Although I will return to Japan sometime within a few years for an extended motorcycle trip. I just don't know exactly when yet. There's a book I have about motorcycle touring in Japan, perhaps you'll be interested in it: Motorcycle Vagabonding In Japan I lived in ...

P.P.S. Note to DJ Downunder: make sure you attend next year... and bring your camera!

Not game to post this on the Hayabusa board!

Why not? Stir the pot!

hey fellows, thanks for the tips about attaching the system bags. I think my right bag fell off because it wasn't properly attached. I thought the bottom hook that points upward was in the slot but apparently not. Is there a trick to getting it mounted correctly? I have the square GS rails, which I...

Newbie Report: Well, that was fun! And a little grueling. It was my first real ride after buying my R1150R (my first bike) last November. I Left last Friday morning early from Chicagoland for Paola, Kansas. From about 6:30AM to about 7:30PM I covered 560 miles. I took the superslab Interstate 55 to...
