Here in the Willamette valley....IF it snows, it's usually of the wet variety & is gone by the same afternoon......Crap Snow really But last night & today was an exception....The Nice & squeaky Dry type Woke up to this today .... Both my youngest lad & my Grandson had the day off from school & couldn't wait to dive into the white stuff.....& me being a Big Kid @ heart when there's snow to play in & the fact that my XT is in a re-assembly process right now.....I didn't waste any time getting my lad's XR to cough to life so we could use it for a tow vehicle for today's sledding activities... Gotta admit that buying this…

Hello Everyone, This is my first time here. I am hoping that someone can help me out. I am in the process of fixing up a 1992 FJ1200 that I bought. I am really having problems finding an aftermarket smoked windscreen for a 92. I can find some but the year only goes to 90. Does anyone know if a 90 windscreen will fit a 92?. Also if anyone has some good websites that I can visit for parts that would be great. Thanks everyone and have a good day! Jeremy

Did about 100 miles on the XT today.....some of the places you may have seen before though. The lakes at Castril.... I then crossed into the Jaen province across the Sierra de Cazorla, then back into Granada arriving at Lake Negratin near Zuhar. Then over to Baza and back towards Huescar through Cullar. I stopped off in Galera on the way back and took some shots of the cave district. So how is the weather in Britain at the moment?

I don't want to sound arrogant but I've noticed that more and more people are joining this forum and less and less are saying hello. I know it's a miserable time of the year for most bikers cos they have to look at their pride and joy rather than riding it but come on it doesn't hurt to remain polite with fellow bikers!

Minor rant coming on. I live in London, in a tower block, we have some lockup garages around the base of the block so i thought it would be nice if i could get one to keep my bike in. There is also a lady with a bike who lives nearby and i thought she would like to share garage when i sorted it out. (Helpful like that me) So i gets on to the local council who proclaim no vacant garages anywhere in the known universe, now i had done a little recce and found 7 empty ones all boarded up so i informed the fella that i had been talking with. A week later he gets back to me and says he has found the keys to 2 garages and as the council has the keys they must be empty. (Happy Ha…
