    Perfect. That would have saved me 20 minutes of head scratchin'.... although I did finally finger it out :D

    Motorcycle.com Sport Tourer Comparo

    It get's worse. This about the 2nd place ST1300, Soo..... it's heavier than the FJR, more bland, less powerful, horrible sound from the exhaust, horrible windshield. Then, how did it make 2nd place? What a completely horrible review. Hey, is there any problem with me just cutting and...

    Motorcycle.com Sport Tourer Comparo

    Snipet: "Some would say the FJR is "rock solid" and a close second to the Interceptor for overall handling honors. I say they're overlooking quite a bit of the FJR's slower transitional responses, greater weight and much-taller center of gravity." "Ok, so why am I bagging on the bike that's...

    Front ABS Test

    I do believe my headlight modulator helps to grab the attention of idiots like this kid who could have taken you out. I turn it off only when I'm riding with friends, so as to avoid annoying them. Nice save, by the way.

    V-strom Handguards

    Yup, WC is the reason I bought the guards. Not much detail at that link, however, when it comes to where I'm supposed to put my nuts. And bolts. And washers. This tard needs to know where to put that stuff. :D Edit: With the help of my friend "Dremel", all is installed and all is well.

    Russell Seat

    The Russell I had on my Triumph Tiger was putting pressure under my thigh and causing my legs to fall asleep. The Tiger had a very high seat height to begin, and the Russell was no good for this motorcycle. I went with a Sargent this time around for the FJR, and I'm thrilled so far.

    Second E95s Pad On Givi Top Box

    I ordered a second E95S passenger backrest pad for my GIVI V46 top box. I installed it upside down, beneath the pad on top. The top pad has the foam inside trimmed, so it is a little thinner than the one below. It looks good, and has much better support for the lower back. Yes, there is just...

    Negative NFL Report On Players On Bikes

    I just swept Mr. Winslow's Chimney. He wasn't home, but his wife was. She if Friggin' Hot!!! She looks like she's about 18, sounds like she's that old too. Did I mention she's HOT HOT HOT!?!?!?

    Passesnger Floorboards, FJR1300

    I remember someone put passenger floorboards on their FJR for their passenger's comfort. Where are they from? How did the install go? Do they make the wife more comfortable?

    Who Has The Gold Wing Here?

    I keep thinking about how comfortable the Wing was. I need some reasons not to buy the friggin' thing. There can be only one.

    Who Has The Gold Wing Here?

    I can't believe how comfortable that passenger seat is. My wife would ride with me much more. There can be only one. I doubt I'll make the switch, but, just how great is the new Wing? The new Grey/Silver color looks nice. $16,500 at a local dealership seems like a good price too.

    It only shakes at idle. Very smooth at speed.

    Untruthful Advertising

    "If you have to ask, you don't understand." :haha: I love riding up to "Bike Night" at the local Quaker Steak and Lube to find the lawyers showing up on their $40,000 custom choppers, wearing perfectly pressed blue jeans and brand new nicely folded bandanas on their head instead of a...

    New Buell "Adventure Tourer"

    Yup, reliability has improved dramatically (and yes, that is compared to a dismal rating earlier). Longer warranty as well. I would certainly choose a BMW GS before this bike if I was to be doing lots of trail riding (and wanted to spend $3,000+ more), but I stay on pavement (most GS riders do...

    New Buell "Adventure Tourer"

    $13,199 MSRP 2005 FJR1300ABS $11,495 MSRP 2006 XB12X Doesn't look the same to me. Am I missing something? Apples and oranges, for sure. I'm not comparing them, but I would not mind owning this Buell.
