Hey All Been riding bikes my whole life. Yamaha 500 Enduro in high school and college. (That dates me) Harleys and Beemers after that. Slowing life down and doing a 180. Getting back to exploring the back roads. So..... just got my 2015 KLR 650. Any shares and advise from my fellow BITOG's on...

Been thinking about ditching the cheap disposable razors and going with a nice Double Edge Safety Razor. Never used one...... and the Google n YouTube research is confusing me. It seems a good razor is $50 on up. Several good blade options. It'd be great if anyone could offer advice. Thanks in...

the smell of mowing the grass this spring? There is still over 2 months of COLD weather here in Kansas, but I am so ready to fire up the OPE. (And then I am always so ready to put it away in November) Anyway..... already dreaming of spring here in Ks. JP

Wanting to wish all my fellow BITOGers a very Merry & Blessed Christmas Season and a very Happy New Year! Wishing the best for you and your families. JPP

So...... many folks like me have vehicles that take 6 or 7 qts. We all buy 5 qt jugs and then need 1 or 2 extra Qts to make the fill. I like to use synthetic but buying it in single Qts doesn't always work out. So what is your "go to" extra qt or two to add to the 5 Qt jug of synthetic? I...

This will turn into a short track mentality today..... LOL People will be taking out other people like crazy before this race ends, at least based on how crazy the starting few laps went! Wouldn't be surprised if some fights break out. JP

Here is a link to a Chemist lecturing about car oil and energy and other assorted things. You might find it quite interesting. I did not watch all 90 min but skipped around to listen to the things I wanted to learn about. It is called Slippery Secrets: The hidden science within the life-blood of...

What a fun finish at the Sprint Cup race just now! WOW Can't wait till the post race interviews! JP

So.... are these okay quality or junk. Say I need a 3/8" breaker bar, or a 21mm socket or something like that. It would not be used very many times. Should I just pay a little more and get Craftsman or is Duralast okay for the $$$ for a tool that would not see lots of use. I have over $100 in...

are ready to do an oil change or maintenance and you do what I just did. You have been buying things for all your vehicles when the prices are good, sales are good, AAP codes making them even better. It's like stuff you don't need at the moment, but you know eventually you will.... so you stock...

Hey all.... Spring is about here (well, its a blizzard here in Kansas right now) and I am thinking about the mowing season. I inherited a Craftsman rider with B&S 18.5hp Intek Vtwin motor last summer. I cleaned out the carb, put on new air filter and new fuel filter. Replaced the battery and...

I posted a quick review on an old post I made several weeks ago and wanted to add to it in a new post. I pulled the stock shocks on my '02 Silverado 4WD with just over 93,000 miles and they were in bad shape. Took the new 5100's for an hour test ride this morning over everything I could find...

What a great finish. I was wrong about Danica finishing 25th or worse. Props to her and congrats to Jimmy! JP

I predict this........ Harvick or Kyle Busch wins.... Danica finishes 25th or worse. Your predictions? JP

I am having some pulled pork that has been on the smoker the last 8 hours....... And......... some Bud Lite! What's everyone else having? JP

Well...... my 2002 Silverado 1500 4wd has 92,000. Shocks have been feeling mushy. So...... after a lot of research and talking to folks I just put in an order for a new set of Bilstein 5100's. Can't wait to get them and put them on. Hoping they are as awesome as everyone says they will be...

Happy New Year to You and your Families. Lets hope 2013 is a great & safe year... and full of good bargains! JP
