    Tank Bags Magnetic vs Strap Mount

    My wife has a magnetic tank bag from Roadgear. She takes it with her when we stop at restaurants. She keeps walking out of the restaurants with silverware hanging off of her bag. Be careful, the utensils can scratch the tank. John

    NAFO web site - Registration Open Until July 20th

    Does this mean I have to leave one of the wives at home, or can I bring both of them? They have their own bike, they ride two up. :P John

    NAFO 1K and 1.5K RIDES!

    What day(s) is the SS1000 going to happen? I just got a Russell day long that needs to be tested. I'm pretty sure my wife doesn't want to do this ride and I don't want to abandon her for most of NAFO, but I have been thinking about doing a SS1000 on the new bike this summer some time. John

    NAFO web site - Registration Open Until July 20th

    OK, we're in. I hope i didn't screw this up. I wanted to sign up both myself and my wife. There isn't a place to enter information for a second person unless they are a pillion, but she has her own FJR. So I was going to register us both seperately, but then when I got to the end, it asked...

    Russell December Group Buy

    My seat arrived today, a week after my January 10th production date. It looks really good, Half Moon design, vinyl with leather inserts. We are headed for the mountains on Saturday for a week of skiing, so the test ride is going to have to wait. This has been a very frustrating winter for...

    Gen III possibilities or preferences.

    Don't forget the cup holder. Also, I'm fairly certain that they will add the Autowave feature, like the Goldwing has. ;) John

    Song of the Sausage Creature

    It's too bad that his light burned out. I love this line. "Being shot out of a cannon will always be better than being squeezed out of a tube. That is why God made fast motorcycles, Bubba...." Thanks for posting this. John

    Great NAFO Roads in CO

    Yeah TWN, I saw your request in post #2. I also saw what fjrchik said about the phone in post #3, and then beeroux was asking about some of the more off the beaten path roads, in post #15. I guess this is just a starting point. If they are interested in some of these rides, I can provide more...

    Great NAFO Roads in CO

    When you are riding from the flatlands of the Denver metro area into the mountains, almost any of the canyons can be a fun ride, but there are some that we try to avoid because of the traffic primarily. So here are some of the routes we like to take with some of our preferred back roads. A...

    Just a helmet storage tip.

    +1 It's snowing today so no ride, but I did get out on Tuesday of this week. It was a perfect 70/70 day, 70 degrees and 70 mph winds. You gotta take the good with the bad. John

    NAFO, Dates & City Secured!

    Golden? Damn, that's only an hours ride. That's just too close to home. We might have to take the long way there. Let's see, maybe we should go through Yellowstone on the way there, or possibly Vegas. This is gonna be fun! biggjohn

    Model Year & Negotiating

    Fourteener Rider, My wife and I bought a pair of 2007 FJR's from Coyote Motorsports in Denver in September. They took $2000 off of MSRP on each of the bikes. We felt like they treated us very good, and we were happy with the whole buying experience. John

    SS1000 Statute of Limitations

    Thanks everyone. I guess I better dig through the pile on my desk and find that paperwork. But then the temperature is supposed to get into the high 60's tomorrow, so I can find that paperwork after I go for a ride. John

    Taking the gloves off

    I think it's more like Lake Wobegon where all the children are above average. John
