    2003 FJR, $4800

    Up for sale is a 2003 FJR1300, 35k miles, excellent condition. I've had the bike for two seasons. Bought it from a member here in late 2009 (https://www.fjrforum.com/forum//index.php?showtopic=121915), so I'm the second owner. The first guy was ridiculously meticulous and clean. I'm not...

    Insurance Article on Deer

    Thanks for the article -- timely for me. I picked up my first FJR 2 nights ago, and drove home 90 miles over winding, 2 lane roads on a foggy night. I sure know enough to slow down and take it easy with a new bike in these conditions. About 15 miles into the ride, however, I had the closest...
