My 03 has 48062 and never skips a beat without the recall but if it does I guess I'll break down and the let the local dealer have at it but so far so good! (except for the icy patch and cold tire thing)

Seems like I passed that School House on my way to Cassoday, Kansas for the breakfast ride. -
After learning the basics of counter steering to enter the turn what is even more fascinating about this technique is counter steering to exit the corner! Now we're having even more fun! I'm sorry if I got off topic, this started as a safety thread didn't it?

Uh, oh is right Monk! Any graduates of CLASS and Reg Pridmore care to take this one? I'm definately in the CS camp but ..........!

Lee, it looks like the front end is "Pushing"! You might give it more gas to get it "On" the back wheel! Great Pic! :fing02: -
I learned the "2 ramp" system when my pickup died in the middle of South Dakota. I had to let the bike down the ramps using the front brake, go for parts, repair truck and reload the bike by myself. It's a little tricky but does work and pushing a 500 pound bike up the ramp by myself would not work. It was a Yamaha anyway! LOL! :fing02: -
Is that the "2 ramp" method where the bike is "walked" up the ramps under power in 1st gear modulating the clutch? I've used that method and works for me.

I've been running Honda's HP4 10w40 synthetic blend/withOUT Moly per the owners manual. 36K on the clock and no problems. Yet! :fing02: Now if my new sprocket/chain kit would just get here maybe I could put some miles on the clock!

I don't know why they call this a "dry" county because it was anything but! Way to keep the warnings going! I think the LEO's must me impressed with the great bike and professional rider combo that they feel as if they should be "nice" to this one. LOL! I got off on my last stop also because "I've been ridin' all day and I need to get home and check on my dog!" :biggrin: -
Run Silent, Run Deep! There are only two kind of ships in the Navy, submarines, and targets! :fing02: -
Mobil one, 4T 15-50 specifically for Triumph motorcycles in my 95 "tigger" with 70K on the clock. Purrrs like a kitten. HP4 10-40 syn/blend "without" moly for the 03 VFRwith 24K. Honda does offer a full synthetic but not sure if it contains moly which is a no no according to the owners manual. Ah, what do they know?

Nice shot, is that an 03? looks like mine not counting the seat. Is that a Corbin? -
