John, sorry for not posting sooner. The son of some close friends was found by the Ft Worth PD on the side of a major street there about 1am friday unconcious and 50ft from his scoot. We've been kinda up in the air today, but he finally woke up and looks like he will be ok. Probably not up...

Carnifex, I'll bet that you can find someone here who will be willing to sacrifice and ride that FJR for you just to keep it limbered up. Sure some of the waiters wouldn't mind too much. Hope you heal soon and well.

Scab, you get my vote for a reprieve. Not that it is worth much. Still, gotta say, you've taken it like a man and appear to have earned that reprieve.

didn't fall but ~ The day a rode my new FJR home, which btw was my very first brand new motorcycle (others were always purchased used or even broken to be repaired to ride) anyway - when I got home my daughter and son both wanted a ride. Daughter first, helmet on and around the neighbor hood...

Hmm FJR biathlon event. Jousting, more of a HD lifestyle kind of thing. Texas law allows overnight trip crossing three or more county lines to carry. Otherwise, I don't. As far as you know.

3t, just curious, what brand variation fork oil did you use? I finally did the ride on the West side of PK last weekend. so so ride but found some nice less touristy places on the lake. Looking at making the big circle around Stephenville for my next trick. If anyone is interested, maybe a...

Well, last weekend came and went and only fjrchik noticed. Anyone want to get together for coffee and visit Saturday morning? Hello? Is this thing on?

Obviously, you guys have never met fjrchik. When did Rad take up golf? :huh:

I think we're on the same page cmf. That is why I said SOME faith. Posts about Yamis getting over 100000 miles bear it out. I think. YMMV :D You guys who have more experience with adding electrical stuff; What do you think about crimp, dielectric grease, heat shrink for our custom...

Spark, I agree with you in every way. Really. Still, it is true that the first contact could have been avoided. As much as I sometimes want to slap the crap out of someone for being stupid or more often a total ******, I don't. Not because I can't but because I learned the hard way a long...

Sparky, my dad was a leo all his life. Street cop for 20+ years, then 15 years with the TABC. He also was a competition shooter all through the 60s and had the largest reloading shop for one man I've ever seen or heard of right up till his passing. He prefered the .357 but never failed to...

I thought it was decided that those were older VFRs.

True

Nice!

Well, you have already heard from the guys who count most but consider this. Yamaha knows perfectly well that the overwhelming majority of bikes sold will likely never see 50000 miles. Most will never be ridden much in inclimate conditions. It is not cost effective to build them as if they...

I hope he does time with some old school HD riders, maybe some faithful followers of Sonny Barger. Not that there are many of those in DE.

Similar experience two weeks ago. Orders tires from SWmoto in AZ Wed Feb15. Confirmation email at 9:10 am. Next day I'm expecting the Wilbers. UPS shows up and driver gets out with Wilbers and a pair of Avons. 3:30pm. This in rural TX outside DFW metroplex. Those tires were on that van at...

Don't take me too seriously huron, I've been obsessing about fork oil for too long and my sense of humor was warped beyond recognition long, long ago. Peace

And I'm not slammin the K1200, but head to head competition with the ZX? Hmm, well I don't see it myself.

Fork U! :****: :rolf: :rolf: :rolf:
