I miss it terribly...

My neck and back, not so much.

No broken bones but all of the concussions are no joke!

Nice...yeah, the riding/racing is fun...the inevitable crash(ing) sucks.

Some fared far worse. As an example, I'm sure you knew Eric Arnold. Here's us having fun at a Keigwin day many years ago. RIP Eric.

My motorcycle is close to a bicycle than a motorcycle. Numbers matching 1935 Indian Chief.

What happened to Eric was tragic! I was very happy to see the Club rallied to support Dave Stanton.

This TT Owners and Motorcyclist needs its own thread!

What did I do to mine lately, how about Fabspeed headers and Capristo exhaust with 200 cel cats?!

For sure man, really sad.

Anyhow, I don't know Dave personally but I do remember when he used to pass my *** at the track...LOL...dude was fast. I heard about his crash and injury.

That's one thing about the motorcycle riding/racing community. A true band of brothers type of thing. Part of why I miss it so much.

very cool.

I never raced but began having fun on my Kawasaki KX80 at age 8 and been riding ever since. I currently have a Harley V-Rod (designed by Porsche) and a Street Glide.

Look what showed up...FVD Brombacher exhaust. Going on this Thursday.

I was going to try a catless Quicksilver exhaust but in the end, I decided to try Brombacher instead. No one I know has tried this system so I'll be the guinea pig. At $1800, the price is right for a true German made catless exhaust. It works with OEM cats but I'll be running Soul Performance cat bypass tubes. I have a Brombacher system on my wife's 981 Boxster S and it sounds amazing.

We shall see...

FVD Brombacher Street Muffler 991.1 Turbo / Turbo S


Here is a video of their system but with 200 cell cats. I am going catless for more flow, power and sound.

Interesting! Pretty raw snarks. My neighbors would have a heart attack...=)

The price is right, that's for sure.

Did a different kind of riding for many years... Mostly big dual-sports, road-book rallye, and adventure touring.

Love that style of riding. Many, many dirt miles , 8-10hour rides, hill climbs, river crossings, etc many many years ago. Great times.

That is some highly polished stainless, curious to hear your thoughts when it's in.
