    Who has moved on?

    Rarely ever post (as noted by my almost non-existent post count) because everything I would ever have asked seems to have been asked before. Crossed the country 5 times on the S10 and have a 6th this summer (helps that the wife's family has a get-together every summer in Maine and I am in...

    I am trying to change the fork oil and probably replace fork seals on my '14. I have gotten to the point where I loosen the damper rod assembly bolt and am stuck. After reading several posts on the issue here and in the service manual, it seems I am supposed to hold the damper rod while...

    Almost the Usual Suspects Ride - (Denver) June 20th

    I will be "IN" on at least some of these as soon as a) I no longer have to work Saturdays (mid-July-ish), and b) I have at least some crash bars on the bike (just got it first of May at the beginning of our month long rain)
