    where to park car

    I only have a few days for my next trip and would like to drive to my starting point, but don't know if there is any place I could park a car and trailer for a week. I am in California. I know nearly everyone will say, "ride your FJR", but I would like to skip the boring part and make the...

    question if you also ride a sportbike

    I have always been curious to see what a sportbike was like, but have only had cruisers and the 2005 FJR ;-) A few weeks ago I rented an '06 R6. It was a blast.

    Question On Hooking Up Heated Vest

    I purchased the dual powerlet kit and a heat-troller for the fjr. I also plan on purchasing a Widder vest. Now, does the vest plug into the powerlet and then _somehow_ it is controlled by the heat-troller? thx for any help
