Meet Curtis, Baby's new TV
Back in late January when we had a cold snap, I killed my 1998 Ford Explorer Sport with the difficult to find 5sp manual transmission.

Trip Report: FZ1OA Spring Rally Day 3 and 4
17 Jun 2017: Free Play Day
After a night spent in the dining room then on the porch, no one mentioned a plan for another group ride. The best idea seemed to be hang out on the porch, ride the loop known as the Cooler Run, hang out on the porch, repeat as necessary. For me, I had another plan.

Trip Report: FZ1OA Spring Rally, Day 2
16 Jun 2017: Group Ride
If there's anything that I truly appreciate about our rallys is that there is a general unplanned feeling about everything. I'm not certain that I've always appreciated this but I do now. I can admit to being an insider but I try to be inclusive of every new face I see, especially the ones that say they're here for the first time. As long as I've been going, there have never been planned rides. They usually develop around the fire the night before.

Trip Report: FZ1OA Gen 1 FZ1 Spring Rally
15 June 17: Departure Day.
Or the longest night. I went to Wal-Mart around midnight to get a new camping mattress and 12v pump. My local store didn't have the pump but they had a neat chair. I was all packed by 1:30 a.m. but still could not sleep. I couldn't load the bike either because Baby needed a bath badly and I was told not to show up at the rally with a filthy motorcycle.

Ride Report: Back on the Road
27 May 17: Memorial Weekend Ride
I returned from my last ride needing tires and a chain. My new place has no garage and leaving the bike at my Dad's was a little too far. Chain and sprockets first. I wanted to replace both because the chain was so bad I was concerned the sprockets were damaged too.

Maintenance: Fork Service done right.
I don't know why I didn't post this sooner. You can bring me to task the next time you see me. The fork service Cruzman and I did leaked as soon as I got home. He changed his a couple of more times and still they leaked. I chose to get professional help of sorts.
FZ1 Mod: Finally Fabbri.
I got it in January from a forum member. I've been saying for years I would order one but have always been satisfied with the ones I had. When I saw this in the for sale section of the forum, I just couldn't pass it up.
FZ1 Mod: Hard Luggage Follow-up
Last year, I added hard luggage that I called Chivi since they're a knock off of the popular Givi brand at a fraction of the costs. Since I added them, I always wanted to be able to remove the bags similar to the way the quick disconnect works on some other brand of luggage racks.
