May your headlight keep on shinin' ... and May your bike avoid all trees. May you ride forever safely, both in sunshine and in showers, May you ride forever freely and enjoy this land of ours! · · · · · Let's Go Racing With the AMA The American Motorcycle Association has created a selection of unbeatable, all inclusive travel packages to many of the best motorcycle racing events in America. These packages provide you with much more than just tickets to the races and accommodations. You get quality seating, programs, media guides, special pit and paddock access, tech discussions, track walk-throughs (where available), and a chance to meet some of the top racers themselves. They also include selected meals, and send you home with special, commemorative souvenirs. The goal of AMA Travel is to provide you with the most exclusive, motorcycle racing event excursion available anywhere. · · · · · FJR 1300 Update Despite the best efforts of all of us who wanted to see it shipped here, Yamaha has decided, for now, NOT to ship the FJR1300 to the United States next year. We here at Rollin' received an overwhelming response to our FJR survey. To the person, all of you told us that you would gladly buy one of these awesome sport touring machines, and most said you would be willing to part with 12 to 14 large to get one. Alas, Yamaha feels that this bike would suffer from flat sales and a poor showing in the American market. · · · · · Surf Report Places and Stuff on the Internet This is a Lifting Experience Finally, a safe and secure way to elevate your motorcycle for maintenance and cleaning regardless of motorcycle brand or style!

Disc brakes front and rear, racing tires, fairings, beautiful lightweight aluminum alloy cast perimeter frame and swingarm - these things are works of motor-art...the kind of thing that would look right at home sitting in a corporate VP's office, among objects of art and high technology as a trophy.
