Today I went for a ride and once again I push myself and I got onto the highway and I kept up with traffic I’m going to watch the movie called flick of the wrist I also had a light up here on the dash I have a 2006 Honda CBR the light was F I or F1 This is one I went to go get gas and my speedometer stopped working and I pulled over and I turn the bike off and on and this barometer was working just as fine I’m going to start the bike up tomorrow and see if the light is on but I’m still concerned if you are could help me out that would be great

I've found that occasionally standing up (not in heavy traffic!) helps keep the nether regions a little less "swampy"...

Where in VA are you?

@Derrick8732 I think you are missing out on an opportunity to do a commercial with Duluth Trading Company.

Definitely! Well, if you are ever in the area and want a riding partner, let me know!

I just bought a little CRF230M and, holy cheezits, is that thing fun! Spent most of today going all kinds of places I wasn't supposed to be!
