Boy I'm glad I read the replies before clicking the link. I ain't watchin' it. No siree. I love my blissful ignorance and childlike naivete.

Wow. Now I'd take THAT in pink. I'd even take it in blue. Wow. Is there a drool smilie?

If I paint my FJR pink, I'll have to change his name from Bullet to... um... Bulletina? Bullette? Bulletta? mmmm... nah! :P

Wait. Does that mean there's not going to be any pink ones?

Dang. I've been wanting a pink one!

Oh no. That's terrible. So sorry for you and your bike. Ouch!

LOL!! I didn't even get it until SouthernFJR replied. hahahaha!

Gosh, thanks for all your kind support!!! I feel warm and fuzzy. As you can imagine, I'm very excited about this turn in my life. For eight years I've been a programmer, and while I enjoy it, programming is an interest for me. Writing (like riding motorcycles) is a passion. I can't not do it...

Here, motorcycles can use the HOV lane, too, which is partly why I ride to work. :agent: edit: I just realized that since I got my FJR one year ago, I've only put 3000 miles on my cage!

Y'all are so sweet! Thanks for all the encouragement and support. I'm thinking my author's photo should show me on or with Bullet. ;) Here's the web site for my alter ego/pen-name (it's not quite done yet, and I'll move it to a real domain name soon): https://members.cox.net/rubysard It has...

Thanks, everyone! I just can't describe how stoked I am :D Good idea about the group buy -- I'll let you know when the book's ready, and I can get some discounted copies for my FJR buddies. ;)

Some of you may know that I've been spending a lot of time writing (vs. riding). Well, all that hard work is finally paying off. Today I was offered a hardcover publishing contract! YAHOOOOO! :yahoo: It's a heroic fantasy (Sword & Sorcery) :2handed: (sorry, no elves, dwarves or dragons...

I had the same problem at first. I put risers on, and got some contoured grips. Problem solved!

Around here, the newspapers report whether drivers and passengers were wearing seat belts when someone is injured or killed in an auto accident. I figured reporting helmet use was in the same vein.

That is so heartbreaking to see. I hope the rider is going to be "OK." (How "OK" can you be after a wreck that does that to your bike?!) Thanks for the concern, everyone. It wasn't me. I can't ride much until I get that new front tire mounted -- the original is nearly bald! Hopefully this...

I have the JR Phoenix jacket, and I love it. Got it during a wicked sale at Cycle Gear - $50. I'd love to have a JR jacket for winter riding. My leather jacket is not intended for MC use (but it has a high collar).

ock913: DOH!! I can't believe I never noticed that before. duh. Time to dye my hair. :haha:

But when the battery dies, you can't ride 'cause of the ignition cut-off thingamabob. And if you happen to be at work and you leave late because of a bug that hits your queue at 4:30 and stops other engineers from working and you have to fix it before you leave, the parking lot is empty when you...

I'd be interested.

It was a Maxim, but that bike sits in someone else's garage now. It just wasn't getting ridden with the Feejer around. In fact, when I did ride it, it felt so weird!
