    motoport gear MESH? or 1/2 mesh

    Another vote for the full mesh. I have the 3/4 jacket (kevlar air mesh) and pants, also kevlar air mesh with full armor. I hate heat (I know, CA is hot, but ocean keeps it a little cooler here), and so am very sensitive to it. With this gear and shorts & tee shirt underneath, it's great even...

    Motoport armor

    I got the 3/4 kevlar mesh jacket 2 years ago, and got the heaviest armor they had at the time (I don't think it was even tri, let alone quad). I got the pants last fall, and did the quad armor. The quad stuff is a lot stiffer than what I have in the jacket, but I kinda like it. Does it make...

    Drunk scumbag motorcycle ******* gets what he deserves

    (edit: I originally wrote this before Willy responded in post#8, but by the time I finsihed writing, I see that Willy had responded, and FJRBluesman chimed in as well.) I can't speak for Willy at all in this, however, I agreed with what Willy said, and also feel that no, the felony conviction...

    FJR Assistance Directory Address

    Turns out mine arrived in the early evening on 5/3...but...I still want the (dare I say it) hard copy delivered by Barb and MEM! Maybe Tyler can join the fun with her new ride, as well! :)

    Disappointed...

    I agree that the local dealer doesn't need the business, if he's not willing to match the price as he previously claimed. (I also realize that the salesman you're working with is only part of the equation; his bosses are the final word on the "motto." If it doesn't happen, if you want someone...

    FJR stock tank, trapped fuel & max distance

    Rather than a full gallon being that parasitic gallon, I'd label it more like "I'm not allowed to violate that except in times of war" (thinking of Hunt For Red October). You *can* go farther and need to put more in, however, I'm unwilling to risk getting stuck and so I don't let it get that...

    FJR stock tank, trapped fuel & max distance

    My experiences sound pretty close to 07fjrTom's. The gauge usually starts to show the fuel warning at about 190 miles. I usually let it go until it counts to about 35-50. That usually ends up then taking 5.1-5.4 gallons. I keep it on the side stand during fueling, and bring the fuel level up...

    WynPro ( BIG-FOOT)

    Just want to give a big :thumbsupsmileyanim: on these! Installed mine a couple of days ago (didn't want to rush the installation, let it acclimate to my home's environment). It hasn't yet sunken into the concrete garage floor! Hurray! Now, if it stops raining, I'll be able to verify if it...

    Shuttle launch!

    I'm currently planning on attending the end-of-July launch. Already have the vacation time scheduled, but no plane tickets yet. We might drive to it, not sure yet.

    Southwest Tour with my Dad

    Yep...FJRs, pie, guns. Does it get any better than that? You start off saying this was copied from your website...how about a link to it? I presume it has other ride reports on it?

    For those with Heli Bar Risers and Tank Bags - let's talk

    Very cool! How well does the mapping software work, on that iPad there? Very cool that it just fits! :)

    Drop Club renewal

    Oh no...since I haven't yet dropped the FJR I didn't think I was a member of this infamous club. However, my previous ride wasn't so lucky. Does this really mean I have to update my sig line?

    DC Ducati street surprise

    Is that really the cam BELT exposed there? Does this have to be posted all over again on Friday?

    High blood pressure, in middle aged men.

    I'm pretty sure it's both, but I want to let the "Doctor" (of what?) give the definitive word.
