The Bull Pen.... Motorcycle Insurance FAQ

Posted 05-27-2010 at 09:26 AM by Rescue Rider

Welcome back to the Bull Pen. It sure is great to see the warm weather return and all of my fellow bikers enjoying some overdue two wheel therapy. I recently picked up Betty (2009 Street Glide) from the shop after a lengthy repair. Unfortunately, I was hit by a suburban assault vehicle (Mini Van) in December while returning from the Chicagoland Toys for Tots run. Both Betty and I are glad to be on the road again.

Many of you know I am an insurance agent and frequently ask insurance...

after-market frustration

Posted 04-22-2010 at 01:37 AM by beefsalad

Ok so I'm a bit miffed at this point about cycle-gears after-market blinkers. I purchased a set not too long after getting my bike. Within the last month both of them have been on the frits. One, I have no idea why it stopped working...or started working again. It acted like there was a loose filament, but that wasn't the problem. The other side...cold solder joint on the bulb-housing (actually they soldered the wire to the spring that helps retain the bulb in the housing) Since I heat-shrank...

Adventure, excitement, the Jedi craves not these things

Posted 04-11-2010 at 06:07 AM by beefsalad

As South Texas quickly rolls into spring, I find myself going on more and more rides just for the hell of it. Spring fever I guess. The more I get out, the longer I tend to stay out. This had me planning a road-trip this summer. I've got friends in the major cities between here and KC that I'd like to see, my plans after that were pretty much "wherever the wind takes me." A coworker is headed to Sturgis in mid-August, as well as my brothers boss (who would be departing from Seminole,...

So I've had this mod planned out in my head for the last...2 years probably. I started it once, but put it on the back burner until I had more time. Well, I finally found the time and dug out the box-o-parts. 6 hours of work later, and I'm ready to put the assembly together (yes, I'm keeping it secret for now!) I get it 95% of the way together, and a wire snaps loose. !@#$. Reheat the soldering gun, fix it, begin reassembly. Another one comes off....!@#$. The good news is, it wasn't my fault!...

wetness

Posted 01-14-2010 at 05:06 AM by beefsalad

I decided since it was supposed to be nice yesterday that I'd take the 9er to the team lead meeting (I had enough time after work to run home, suit up, and take the scoot.) I checked the weather before I left the office, 10% chance of rain all day. I was willing to risk getting a little wet. 2 minutes after I get back to the office, one of the engineers informs me that theres a line of storms at the edge of town. It rained until well after I got home. I also realized that it's time to recoat...
