    Atlanta ride for kids

    Sunday, June 1, Northpoint mall, off of Ga 400 north of Atlanta. Is anybody else planning on going? If you've never done it, it is a good time. Police escorted, kind of slow pace, but you can run the red lights legally, besides it raises money for sick kids. After staying for the ceremony...

    EOM 2008 Planning & Information

    +1 on 219. Got to enjoy it last year from Huttonsville to L'burg. 250 east of huttonsville wasn't bad either. I think WV was made for the FJR. Will be my first EOM too hopefully.

    A couple of pictures and a link in memory of Jordan

    What a tribute to a true American Hero. It is because of heroes like Jordan that the fight is being taken to the enemy over there instead of on our streets here. As a former Marine Infantryman myself,I feel proud to have worn the same uniform as Jordan.He sacrificed so that others could live...

    Need an entertaining route from Deal's Gap to Birmingham

    If you are taking 19/Ga400 south into 285 around the west side, once you get on I-20 West, i would recommend getting off at exit 44(I think). It is Thornton Road. Turn to the right go a couple of miles and hang a left on 78. That is the easiest place to pick it up. If you grab it off of 285...

    '08 Stalling problem

    my 07 has done it a couple of times. Mainly snapping the throttle to hear the pipes rumble, while at a stop sign. I added some 2 bros slip ons a little while back, and it changed the airflow to much. I wasn't sure if i had bad gas, air/fuel mix, needed a PCIII or just hot and tired and...

    Riding Mowers and Zero Turn Mowers

    I have been doing lawns for a couple of years now as a side business. I prefer exmark. But either exmark or scag is a good brand. right now i use a walk behind, but the speed of a zero turn cannot be beat. Buy commercial grade. Don't buy the Zero turns at Home depot or lowes, they are not...

    Top Trunk

    +1 on the Givi V46. Takes all of 2 seconds to detach. I originally went with the Yami box, but got tired of waiting for the mounting plate. Yami kept telling me it was shipped last week. Dealer told me it should be in tomorrow. After 2 months i gave up and got my money back. Very happy with...

    How to fill the back seat up

    NEVER, been dreaming of FJR since they came out. I felt like it was a good compromise. I gave up the dream of owning an RC51, she said it "looked to fast". The feej only cost me a puppy for her. I think i won that trade. Her friend is not really extra cirricular "friends". more like company...

    To the ******** on Hwy 92, Acworth, GA

    Nah, just put a bunch of chrome on it, and he will only ride it short distances at slow speeds. Might need a trailer though when he turns 4 and wants to leave the driveway.

    How to fill the back seat up

    I've tried to get the old lady on the feej. She was brought up thinking bikes are death traps for the crazy at heart. I don't ride stupid (she don't know what goes on in the mountains), but she can't get over the fear to even try it. Her friends that ride tell her she will love it. She rode...

    when to change front tire

    I am running the metzlers that my 07 came with. The rear is going to need replacing in the near future. I've never had a new bike before so this might be a dumb question. Do i need to change the front at the same time as the rear, or does it matter to change the front later on. The front...
