Sorry, for so
I was just down in LA for business. I was blown away at the way they lane
split. This guy is really calm compared to some of the other guys I saw.
I was doing 55 in the car pool lane and a bike split the lane next to me
doing at least 15+ over my speed. Crazy stuff and a good way to die.

No reverse though, that's why the GL.

Well the GL1500 already makes 3x the horsepower of the stock engine. But yea a
turbo is always better!

Yes Kurt - it handles like its on rails. Or it would, if it was on rails.

Oh and Allen - no the steering wheel isn't missing :-)

are into trains. LOL!

Allen,
No - the Fairmont motorcar company manufactured its own Two-cycle
Gas engines for many years, this car is one of those. What is interesting
to many is that this car does not have a transmission - it is a direct belt
drive to the rear axle. One reverses it by swapping the ignition timi

Yes, yes you have.
Though I always keep coming back to the idea of a Goldwing or ST engine in
a sandrail. Watercooled, integrated transmission, shaft drive... Why not a
rail motorcar? Sandrail, rail car... they both have rail in them!

All,
In case you all hadn't noticed - I've been a bit quiet lately. In
truth, its a combination of things, as things like this usually are.
However, I have been spending a fair amount of time in my Dad's basement,
wrenching on a restoration project. Although it isn't a two-wheeled

I don't know yet if it's waterproof. It rains very little in the Las Vegas
area (on of the reasons I got a bike for this place)! :-)
It is removable, since I also used Velcro to attach a cheap clock from
Wally World. Cheap, quick & easy! :-)

Not really knowledgeable enough to explain it, my research suggests that
this is true.

Sadly the way things are going in VZ right now texting on a bike while lane
splitting probably isn't the most dangerous thing you could be doing down
there. I did notice that while Brazil didn't seem to enforce any traffic
regulations they did seem to have a helmet law. I didn't see a single rider
The same is going on now in Caracas. There are so many bikes that is common
to see collisions between them. I saw a bunch of guys on vstroms 650 and
klr 650 (including the police), which was surprising. I also saw a guy
texting on his cell while riding on the freeway.

BT45, or metzeler, IMHO. I've never heard of anything but good about them. I do
have to state that I'm having good luck with the Shinko 230. They don't last
super long 6-7 K miles, but they are cheap, sticky, and ride nice. I think the
712 is a little harder compound and lasts longer, more than
I have never seen lane splitting like what goes on in Rio but down there
90% of the bikes are 125s or 250s, a 750 would be way too big to lane split
like they do. The bikes down there are on the horn all the time too to let
the other drivers know that they're coming up.

Out of all of those bikes the one I want most is that Honda SuperCub in the

Why would pressure never change hot or cold? Nitrogen expands and contracts

Thanks for all of your great replies. Decision made, I'm gonna stick with
what I know best (and what I've never really had any problems with in the
past ) conventional balanceringNow to decide whether I will go with
Dunlop GT501's again the Bridgestone BT45 Battlax or the Metzeler

Is it waterproof? Removable? I bought a $3 digital clock at Kmart and
velcroed in on. I pull it if it looks like rain. Works for me. There is a
$70 professional one that is waterproof and mounts on your handlebar, but I
forgot the maker. I learned about it when somebody mentioned it as an

I found out about the tire pressure issue causing scalloping, switched to
nitrogen, now the pressure never changes with either hot or cold tires. And
no slow leaks.
