Re: How many riders do not carry tire repair kits?

A Plug kit, C02 cartridges, and in the past year started carrying a fully charged Air Hawk hand held air compressor. Where I ride there's often no cell service and very little traffic. The Air Hawk is also good for checking and inflating tires prior to heading out for a ride.

Re: Doesn't get any better...

Some mild drizzle but all in all, it was a beautiful day. Homie, you talked about taking the same ride and seeing how close the cars come to the edge. On two different occasions I have watched tires slip off the edge. Very close to a disaster and of course, from time to time, someone does go complet...

Re: Doesn't get any better...

k2, not sure what I am doing wrong. I've posted pictures before and had to resize them. I'll give it another try.

Doesn't get any better...

Got an unexpected ride in this morning from Kaanapali to Kahakuloa. Thought I'd share these pics. Two are from Honoloa Bay looking towards Kapalua. And no trip to Kahakuloa is complete without a stop at Julia's. Those who have been there know what I'm saying.

WhiteNoise, the saddlebags are indeed the Kwik-Tec bags from Scooter Logic. I believe you were the inspiration for me buying them back in 2013 after seeing one of your posts. I think (not sure) I saw the Honda Wings on Fish's Forza. I like both bikes for different reasons. The Forza is great for tho...

Re: Maui scoot'en

Homie, no worries. I have Amazon Prime. I ordered a tankless water heater and it got here in two days. Housing is pretty much the killer here. The rest of your expenses are not too bad if you know where to go. In some respects, it can be less expensive. I have no heating bills, hardly ever use my A/...

Re: Maui scoot'en

Homie, I'd be happy to meet with you on your return visit. I've lived here full time now for 14+ years. I only wish I moved here sooner.

Re: Maui scoot'en

Homie, looks like you were riding the north shore of West Maui. One of my favorite rides. As you drive through the village of Kahakuloa, stop by Julia's banana bread shack, the banana bread is outrageous.

Re: New Member

Thanks gn2 and Mel. I do use mesh, have a Hi-viz Teknic mesh jacket and my gloves are mesh with leather on the knuckles. I also have some type of a cooling vest that I soak in ice water. It absorbs a lot of water and while underway the evaporative process does keep me cool. But it really gets me too...

Aloha from Maui. Long time lurker (years), finally took the plunge and joined. A big mahalo to all of you for the information I've learned from this site. Started in August 2013 with a new black PCX 150. Brought it in for the first service and ended up driving home with a new 2014 Forza (non ABS). M...
