    Exhaust Comparison

    Yeppers saw that thread but since it was a year old I was hoping more for input from pilots that have the various cans on their bikes to compare. Sound is only one, but a big one, on side by side comparisons. And we're dealin' here with GenII's. Does your exhaust need a Power CommIII?[probably...

    Exhaust Comparison

    Looking for a comparison on aftermarket cans. Did a little searching around and saw some threads on Holeshot exhausts, but does anybody have StainTubes, 2 Bros. Racing or Yushimoro cans to do a little comparison, like price, weight, HP, A/F readings, sound etc. Which ones are the best bang for...

    Do you ride with your Hard Bags?

    During the week for the commute the bags are on. On week-ends traveling, I check into the hotel, throw the bags on the bed, then its off to the twisties like the "Three Twisted Sister's" outside of Kerreville, Texas

    Summer jacket recommendations?

    tJust dumped my Motoboss of two years for a Joe Rocket Phoenix 5.0 textile/mesh jacket. Here in coastal Texas it starts at 75 degrees in the morning, and goes to 95 with about 85% humidity, in other words hot and humid. My complaint withe the Boss was the back pad was foam and it sucked the...

    hill country lodging recs?

    If you go to Kerrevelle stay at the Whitten Inn. Tell them you're in a bike club or rally and they give you a nice discount. Also have a bike wash and free clean rags[first come first serve, they go fast]. But my favorite "perk" is after you check in they ask if you want a complimentary beer...

    How old are you FJR riders?

    60 and about 25% so far but I've only had the bike for two weeks and my honey is an avid rider....that's why she gave the "OK" :yahoo: to get another bike cause my Thruxton is a single seater.

    H.I.D.

    HID lighting is legal in Texas and I can say from experience[i have an HID headlight on my '06 Thrux] that the lighting is more focused and BRIGHT even in daytime. I live in the deep boonies and leave for work at 5:30 in the dark AM. The light is focused on the road but also shines from ditch...

    2008 FJR1300a

    lol, what a small world. I originally talked to the guy about the bike and he told me the same thing about not coming down off his price. Then, he emailed me a week later and said he would now consider a lower price. I'm not in a hurry to buy something b/c I have to sell my VTX1300R, but if...

    2008 FJR1300a

    Yeppers I was trying to buy the bike two weeks ago from that that guy in Port Arthur. The reason he's selling the bike[his words not mine] is he's medically unfit to to ride. He wouldn't come off that price of 11,290 so I had my eye on another FJR. Boy was he shocked when I told him I wasn't...
