It all started with a noisy and long winded group known as rec.motos.
Then I got kicked off.  I got to come back about 4 months later and there
was a new organization.  It was hilarious, lacking of rules, but
promoting togetherness.  Oh there was still noise.

What.sa DoD?
what the heck is DoD?!
   they wanted to know. Or;

   and, of course, the endless xxxxx (put ANY brand of motorcycle there)
   bashing, "I am NOT a squid" claims after posting something squidly,
   "I bow to the Harley alter""You flatulate to it you mean""Take that
   back""No""Ignorant rice lover""Tractor rider"etc..., but the one that
   will not die is counter steering otherwise known as "How a motorcycle
   steers."

"Who is this guy and why is he boring us" you ask?  Well, to be blunt I
quit.  With all the endless hot air on the net I'm still going to miss it.
Any mail list with bjet or bjt20 needs that item erased (joust list,
BA riding list).
I also wanted to thank Laurie and Bob (like anyone would believe you
traded in the GS for a Harley) for pancakes, Arnie and Gary for all those
wonderful toys, Blaine for the neat pics, and John for giving me an EMAIL
address that I can check occasionally (see below).

Unlike Brucer I'm not going to Yachats (boy am I jealous) but I am going
to Boise, ID to air I can breath and water I can drink.  Maybe some day
I'll have net access again (only if HP hires me :-).
Anybody going through the area (and the people already there) I'll be at
(208)375-9903 for rides, beer, or whatever (that was a shameless plug
for those who didn't know) starting May 1st.

On April 25th bjt20@duts.ccc.amdahl.com, bjt20@juts.ccc.amdahl.com, and
bjet@.ccc.amdahl.com become inactive but hopefully I won't.

The nail file is specifically designed to scoop the black oily crud out
from under your nails. This accumulates on even the shortest trip. NO
I don't know how it gets there. BSA black oily crud has a specific 
viscosity and graininess. Universal nail files are usually inadequate,
hence this specially marked file.

If I remember high school electricity class right, when the voltage and
resistance are fixed (as ther are in this case) the current is variable. The
car produces as much current as 12.5V can push through the given resistance.

I don't claim to know bettr, or at all for that matter, but I jumped my bike
a few times when the battery was dying. If there's a flaw in the above

Nothing "wrong" with them, just a bit unfashionable perhaps. I just
meant it as an example of Honda doing something that flies in the face
of "conventional wisdom". After all, "everyone" knows that pushrod
engines can't spin fast. :-) You can always count on Honda to come up
with something strange & wonderful from time to time. Sometimes it makes
sense, sometimes it doesn't, but I've got to admire them for trying.

In California deaf drivers are required to have a passenger-side mirror in
addition to the driver's and center rearview mirrors. That's it.

Which makes one wonder - as most motorcycles have both side mirrors (and a
center mirror isn't practical or needed), then if you're wearing earplugs
and thus 'technically' deaf, you're in the clear, yes? Hmmmm....

two imported bikes (only because newer and MUCH more trendy machinery came

  And, you know what?  I sure enjoyed riding these three bikes because of
their capabilities a *LOT* more than the number of times I've ridden a
non-imported bike...

  I guess you make your choice - enjoy the capabilities of a machine, or
go for resale value...  Personally, I'm in it for the enjoyment, and don't
like limiting myself just to stay with any particular brand.  Unlike you,
resale value was never on the top of my reasons to buy a motorcycle - if I
wanted to invest, there are a number of MUCH better ways to invest your money.

  No need to "buy back in", unless there is something new out that does
something that you want.  I haven't seen anything in three years that has
made me want to "buy back in" yet.  Then there are some models/styles that
will *never* be what I want or be capable of what I've come to enjoy.

  This ain't brand-bashing, because my dislikes of certain models for my
personal use extends to many import models, also.

I agree that cold weather makes for better

My turbo car makes this especially evident-
I've always figured that the denser cold air
made for a better intake charge.

Maybe the cold weather makes your brain
sluggish to appreciate the performance gain?

kevin malloy, tom barber, kevins friend, and myself had a wonderfull

goldengate canyon. going up goldengate canyon was a blast. only
real sand was in the upper third (where you start desending).
tom and i blew past a couple of park rangers at about 70-80. taking
some of those "twisty road ahead go 20" at 70-80. at the top
tom and i waited about 2-3 minutes for kevin and another 2-3 for

after watching a state patrol go by on peak to peak we decided to

of course, you are the other half of this equation.

to make time, take 101 -> 152 -> 5.  it's 355 miles from cupertino
to santa monica.  it'll take under 6 hours unless you're pokin'.

to take in more scenery, take 101 all the way.  this will take 7 hours,
maybe a little more (i've never done this route).  it's not THAT much
better, but you won't be hypnotized like you would on 5.

if you want to see lots of scenery, take 101 to hollister via 25,
south on 25 to 198, then east to coalinga, and south on 33, then
jog over to 5 via 166 when you reach maricopa.

if you never want to see a freeway, well, you won't make it to the
wedding on time. :-)

i'd recommend you take a 150 mile or so trip in the very near
future, like, this weekend.  know how far you can go on a tank of gas.
know how long your butt can hold out.  know what to do when you get a
flat.  do you have a chain?  ever lube it?  you will have to when you
get down there.  when's the last time you checked your spark
plugs?  your valves?

if you can't hack the 150 mile trip, then forget it.  if you can make
it 150 miles, then you can rationalize that you'd make it to LA since
it's close enough to the turnaround point.  (i.e. if you make the 150
mile mark, you can continue since it's just as far going back.)  that
doesn't mean you'll enjoy it, but that you'll simply have no choice
but to continue. :-)

by far the most important factor in "making it" is how long in the
saddle you will be.  if you can't ride more than 6 hours in a day,
well, take the shortest, fastest way possible or you'll be miserable.
hwy 5 sucks, but it works.

Wow.  Completely amazing.  That comes to about 36 miles per month.

I have jump started my bike with a car battery lots of times.  However,
I have never attempted to do so while the car is running.  Just hook up
the batteries (12 volts is 12 volts) and start the bike.  When you are
done start the car to put some juice back in the battery.  Assuming that
you can start your bike in a minute or so the car battery will not die.
You are right though, if you attempt to jump start a bike from a 
running car you will (possibly) screw up your electrical system.

I've not been able to do unintentional wheelies on anything but an old Yamaha 100cc 2 stroke dirt bike.  I think the weight of the bike is a major factor in whether it can pull wheelies easily.  The little guy will smoke most larger bikes up to its max speed of about 75 mph.  Too bad I dont have it anymore, it was a lot of fun.
