    Jeeps and such...........

    Sorry I confused the issue, I meant that by going the week after the Jeep Safari the majority of the people and traffic have gone home, and we pretty much have the town, and the trails, with minimal traffic. (plus the vendors give everyone a good deal on the merchandise they don't want to haul...

    Jeeps and such...........

    The Jeep club we belong to here in sunny So. Calif. always goes the week after the Jeep Safari, most will be leaving for Moab on Wednesday or Thursday of this week. The town has emptied out, rv/motels/BLM spots are open, restaurants aren't jammed, trails are empty...We have been doing this for a...

    Tenere Owner Age - Poll

    Re: What is your age? I checked the "Dirt" box as I will be 71 in June. Started riding in 1958 while in the Navy. I tell all my friends that I'm a 35 year old brain trapped in an aging body. :D

    Considering switching from FJR1300 2008 to S10

    Welcome Jacob! I currently ride a Concours C14 and haven't decided if I will keep it when the Super Ten arrives. It depends on how much the Yamaha tickles my fun factor, and the C14 is a very hard act to follow. :D

    Views on the wind deflector kit?

    I've been running a CalSci w/s for three years on my Concours 14 and the amount of rain entering the vent on the shield is very little. It seems to change the direction of the airflow so that it doesn't create the vaccuum effect around the sides of the shield that pushes you forward while riding...

    Missing in Action

    Next time let the load you're carrying GO! It's replaceable (no matter what the wife says to the contrary)...follow the Dr. and the therapist instructions or some "johnny come lately" will get your new ride.

    Cruise Control Project

    I currently ride a Concours 14, the Cat o-ring was my first farkle and yep...I got the idea from the Concours forum. When I walked into the Cat dealer to get one the parts guy looked at my First Gear jacket and said "Cruise Control?". Obviously I wasn't his first Concours customer. Be sure that...

    Dealer invoice price?

    I paid $14k out the door, from that 14,000 subtract 8.75% state sales tax, documentation fees, state license fees. Using $350 for doc fees, avg. $350 (or more here in Calif.) for license fees and you come close to $12,100 for my starting point. The dealer was happy, and I'm happy...except for...

    New member/buyer

    Oh good grief...I joined the ranks of the "I hope this bike is as good as I've been led to believe" earlier today. My name is Jim and I too am anxious for May to arrive. I ordered mine in Blue. The dealer says that I am the 2nd one on the list at his shop. I am currently riding a 2008 Concours...

    Cruise Control Project

    I usually just slide my yellow colored Caterpillar "O" ring between the grip and the end of the handlebar. Don't use the black color ring as it isn't the same material and slips.
