    Shout to Atlanta rider

    The weather was perfect and the Smokey Mountains were (and always are) some of the best riding around. Thanks to Marty for riding at my pace (easy does it...)....although he did wheelie by me on the "Dragon"....that lasted only a few minutes as we came upon an 18 wheeler lost and stuck in roads...

    Safety and gear

    Steeltoe workboots are all I ever wear....I guess it's just what you're use to. Dedicated bike boots are certainly best for ultimate safety and function. LB

    looking for OEM seat

    I recommend going ahead and sending yours in and if you don't like it after the fact, buy a new OEM or the comfort seat. I would be surprised if you will be able to buy a stock seat from anyone for cheap...cheapest will likely be from Yahama. LB

    Heated Gloves

    If getting heated gloves, don't waste money on gloves other than Gerbins! I went through three pair of other cheaper brands (luckily returned them all for refunds) that never worked how I expected. Gerbins work great! The wires needed to plug into the battery don't bother me, but to each...
