Welcome. What are you planning to do with your 7 warm days in MI this year? 🙂

Welcome!

Let us know. I won't spend the dosh, as they'll time out before I can wear them out, so I have two sets of IIIs in the closet.

Charlotte, NC forecast updated to 8.3" of frackin' snow...after last weekend with all ice. This isn't why I moved south. lol

I left New England in 2004 and never looked back. Haven't even been back up there in many years...but 2026 could be the ticket once the snow melts and you guys have the one great week...in June. 🙂 Chin up. Build an army of snow people.

But how do you get past the ugly factor? Seriously. I look at VFR, FJ1200, VTR250 and so many other lovely to look at bikes and then I see the new stuff like these 800s, the FZ series, and KTMs, etc. and they're beyond ugly, not to mention a nightmare to clean with all of those creases and angles. I'm not sure that I could do it.

VFRworld is back up.

VFRWorld has been down for a few days. Can anyone else get on it?

On sites that don't autosize, I just make a 1600x* copy with sm after the name and post that.

Most modern forums have an autosizer built in. Maybe we can get that feature?

There's a reason they're called stealerships. I never go to one.

I agree. My FJ1200 was fine. The VFR was much lighter, but hardly heavy to move around, and I'm a lightweight.

I'm on ADVrider also, but it is WAY to active for me. A lot of chatter, nearly impossible to find questions/answers. Truly...forums suck.

I read nothing on paper anymore, just some sites and YT videos. My lot: The two VFR forums, obviously. N2td.org forum because I coach for them. Same for EvolveGT and others. YouTube peeps I subscribe to: Born a Goon Brent Pearson CanyonChasers Freedom Worx Itchy Boots Just Rolled In Life at Lean Megs Braap Mike on Bikes Shonky Productions I haven't longed for anything more. 🙂

I used to, but so much of it is AI generated or just not true that the whole sport has lost a bit of the former shine for me.
