Wow, simply amazing!

My thoughts exactly

Supposed to be sunny and 60F tomorrow in Indy! FJR for sure. Oops, 51. Still riding the big girl.

My next thought was how long is it going to be before someone makes a spark while improving their usable capacity? Not me. Ride it, fuel it. What tool is used for this? A brass punch?

My '07 does the same thing. (Indicates the need for fuel and will only hold about 4 gallons)

Power Commander, Accessory fuse box, 357 mag, slime pump with stringy plugs and the tool plus various tools, tape and a coil of wire. The $20 bill is a damn good idea. Adding that.

I have an '07 FJR myself for those fast trips. Riding to work tomorrow 12/2/15 in Central Indiana. Not many of these days left!

And as far as riding a bike compared to working on it. I enjoy it. It is what I do.Except for front end alignment, I have not paid to get any of my vehicles repaired since 1977. And at that time I had no clue. But I learned. And turning wrenches has done me good. A Gold Wing is a mighty fine...

You would think it would have all matching tires one way or the other. All street or all knobbies before being "released" If I was that stupid I would act like I didn't know it. ....ah well, carry on..........

The plot thickens...... Ran across a 1985 Gold Wing. Fair condition 55,000 miles $1800 Has leaky front brake line and numerous other small details addressed. Nah, does not seem like it was very well taken care of. I could be wrong. Then I stumbled across a 1986 Venture Royale. Immaculate. Needs...

Wow, and I had trouble with the Honda 3 wheeler. Nobody told me to lean the wrong way. Rode it one time. Never again. This thing could hurt ya fast! As Ron White said: "we will beat the paramedics to the scene of the crash by at least a half hour"

I am very fortunate. She is easy to get along with. Never argued in 12 years. That in itself is amazing. Helps that she is driving a brand new vehicle...... Need to get her on a bike and let her fall in love with the ride. Get her wallet involved with the decision.

It's not the Feej that is jealous. She's nice and warm, covered up, facing the door with a battery tender. It is the Midnight Maxim going through complete rebuild that is jealous. I bought that one brand new. I wonder if it will get ridden much when done? FJR is a mighty fine machine with an...

With that in mind: Any Wing purchased would benefit her more than me. Making it her bike. Maybe she will pay for one. Leaving my money for the FJ-09. That triple is a must have in my book.

Appreciate that info guys! Maybe I should go pick up the FJ-09 while they are relatively cheap this winter. The FJR can haul both of us. She will just have to get used to the idea that we are not living on it.

Been contemplating purchasing a late 80's model Venture Royale. Just because, 1, It's a Yamaha. 2. The V4 intrigues me. And 3. I want one. Who out there still rides one of these jewels? Other than making sure the air compressor system is working correctly, what else should I look for? There are...

If that video don't curl your toes nothing will........

37 and partly sunny in Indy. As far as grass is concerned, I am waiting to hit big on the lottery so I can pave the yard and paint it green. Or astro-turf it.

Went out last night about 9:20. Hey, it's 55 degrees out! Jumped on the FJR and did a 70 mile cruise. In the 50's today. But raining.... If ya don't like Indiana weather, no worries. Stick around , it will change.

Well that sucks! I would not care if the riders were all one armed and hairy Russian cheerleader babes. Indy is all about racing.
