Yes, the March issue? I must have missed something! ...and tell me why the FJR in your avatar is the same color as the one I want and can not buy? :glare: Can you post up a full size pic or link? Thanks, Roger

Hey guys! Do ya think Yamaha will ever build the FJR in a brighter color, say their Shift Metalic Red It's as red as their beautiful earlier model's blue is blue? I've been waiting what seems like forever and have seen pictures of them from Europe but I'm thinking of trading my FZ1 fairly...

Or you could get a nice, slightly used 2nd gen FZ1, 06> and have something that REALLY scares the crap out of you! :yahoo: Roger 06 Shift Red FZ1 @ 5,900 miles

Further comment bashing ugly bike deleted. Topic dead.

Hey, I HEARD that! Actually, I agree. As much as I like the "Shift Red Metalic" on my bike, I'm with you. I'd love to own one of the first solid red FJRs here in this states. See signature below. Now if I were to have a black one, I have a friend that can do this... ...and no, I don't...

Oops ...sorry ...I think I knew that. https://i106.photobucket.com/albums/m246/Th..._7_4_07_005.jpg Very true. Joe Howard himself is at least recovered enough that he can use a PC and a phone. I'll copy his last post about the matter and post it up here. The problem as I see it is that...

Just sat on one at my local dealer. It's friggin huge! and feels like you are going to fall over on top of that fugly headlight. To each his own. I'm sure the power is impressive, but that's where the butt ugly buck stops, IMO. Roger

Here's an answer to your first question. https://208.109.12.132/attachment.php?attac...mp;d=1193617217 https://208.109.12.132/attachment.php?attac...mp;d=1193664288 These were taken in one of the least tight turns on this section of US 421. How can the trucks make any time over a route like...

This is the thread where all that was started on the local 421 motorcycle forum. https://208.109.12.132/showthread.php?t=3283 So far, replys from the authorities indicate passive action toward any changes. Full size trucks continue to cross daily and take up both lanes un-escorted. Roger

Sorry with the delay of getting back here. Christmas stuff and my work has kept me very busy, but I have kept up with Joe's physical progress. He's back home and will be starting outpatient therapy soon. He's progressing better than everyone thought he would, but still has no feeling in his feet...

Merry Christmas everybody! Roger

ARAITN Down! -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 40 year old Joe Howard of Elizabethton, TN known as "araitn" on the crotchrocketracing.com forum, was riding his cobalt 2007 FZ1 through the Mountain City to Shady Valley section of "The Snake", TN...

Like the guys hiking and one told the other, if he sees a bear he's going to run. His friend said... "You can't out run a bear!" He replied... "I don't have to out run the bear ...I just have to out run YOU!" :rolleyes:

That is pretty cool, but I think I'd like this one for weekends. :yahoo:

Hey Cliff, I bet I've seen you over in Shady Valley this year. I've seen several blue FJRs and probably even have some pics of you and your bike. If not, they are trying to copy you. Holler at me if you see me at the Country store. I'll be up this weekend and again August the 11th. I'm easy to...

Just curious who owns an 07 that possibly lives very close to me. I was on my way home after work and saw this bike running bagless but has a GIVI top box. Didn't look like a whole lot of fun in that Weaver Pike rush hour traffic ...and in the rain! ...but I do understand the passion to ride...

Hey UPSMAN, I love mine too, but I've taken a beating defending her... and mine's the faster Shift Red ! :clapping: Roger OOps, Duh, didn't realize I had already bragged about mine earlier in this thread. ...that's me racing the camera ...he still got me! ...and I'm still waiting for my...

Somebody pooped in our nest! Besides, the new Wing weights almost twice that of the FJR. Yamaha would NEVER do that to us!
