'I just don't want to get down the road and go "Oh Shizit!" - "I should have brought . . .' honestly, that's pretty likely to happen anyway.. we all have our quirks and preferences for how we like to get our ride on. you won't really learn yours til you're out there in the wind for a bit...

well, i gave in and went for a good mountain ride on the 4th. a riding buddy from work bought am st1300 the day before and was keen to take it out for a spin so off we went. the traffic was as bad as i feared but he's a fairly new rider so he was content to just sit in the flow and enjoy the...

i think that's gonna be a good idea. i've already scuffed them a little for exactly that reason. haven't tried to buff the scuffs out yet but probly ought to get some protection on there before i do it again ;)

thanks, yeah i did check them out. the tankslapper's cut specifically for the fjr as well. if i decide to go for a visible guard, i'll probly order the next set from them. really wishing it wasn't 4th of july weekend. finally have time to go for a nice mountain ride but the mountains are the...

just got done w/the tankslapper install. thought it was kind of a bitch actually.. had to go to wallmart to get some velcro for the scraper as they kept suggesting. seems kind of cheap not to include a piece in the install kit imo. they also sent a rediculously small amount of johnson &...

if you're anywhere near either coast, stop by corbin's factory and they'll spend the day custom fitting your seat to you. i believe they even buy you lunch ;) i had a corbin on my wide glide and absolutely loved it. it's going to take a lot to convince me not to get one for the new fjr..

tankslapper ordered in 3m. not sure if i want all the rest of the pieces so i'll see what this looks like. thanks again for the help.

skyway delrin sliders ordered. oh yeah. got an interesting piece of mail from yamaha yesterday. it was a big red/gold certificate that said.. 'Congrats! Your FJR1300A is the fastest ever made!!' who'd a thunk? :P

paypal sent. thanks in advance!

yeah, everyone seems to really dig on the skyway sliders. i'll order up a pair of those asap. had no idea the after market for this bike was so deep. just when i thought my cc had recovered from the harley ;) want to get a clear tank bra too. still searching the forum for the best source...

picked up my new '07a yesterday. wanted to thank you all for the great advice i found here. helped make my decision a lot more comfortable.. spent a couple hours last night trying to grind through the break in miles. only another 915mi. to go ;) ugh.. now to re-read all the faqs, etc...

'Simple... Status, image, and peer pressure. Yes, apparently we're still in high school.' hope you're not implying that everyone who rides a hog does so for these reasons. kind of like accusing all sportbike riders of being squids imo.. 'I'm not sure what it is..they all look alike to me.'...
