Man, what a TRIP! Maybe your butt didn't turn to iron, yet, but it must feel at least like lead by now. welcome back to the heat and humidity! :blink:

Ari, do you write for a living? :) V Ari, do you write for a living? :) V

Cycle World just reviewed the AE and liked it, and promises to have a comparo against the new Beemer GT. that oughta be interesting... V

tailgaters: either slow down enough for them to pass you, or what I ususally do: just leave them so far behind you won't remember them. Also, it's illegal to split lanes in FL, but at the right moment and in the right situation, I'd do it. Especially if it's gonna get the jerk off of your back...

Fred, do you keep that Hi8 video cam as part of a "collection?" (I have a whole "collection" of OlympusOM system SLRs in some closet...) See, they have DIGITAL video cams now, bud. :P I think we'd all like to see the video!

really man, I'm thinking of moving to Nashville real quickly and picking up a bike...I wish they'd sell them for $12,300 around here! :angry2: or even had a few "xtras"... oh well, I guess I'll make mine an '07/'08 :D

I just read through that whole discussion about fixing the problem with the 17mpg readout. I don't know anything about this federally mandated sticker but I can tell you I had my entire instrument cluster replaced a couple of months ago and I didn't get no stinking sticker and my bike only...

Is it bad to go 102 mph on the quarter mile with an FJR? don't know...maywannadoit... :glare:

+++ interested but don't see how they're going to beat the Corbin price. R&D cost money. Materials costs money. Etc. I'd be surprised if they can do it for a significantly lower price. Or maybe we'll find out how much profit Corbin is getting on those things... :glare: Vinnie

Ah laddie, you make your mother proud. Now give an engineer (with metric tools) a chance. :P If you bought the bike new, and you have had services performed at a certified Yammi dealer, then that's what the WARRANTY is fer. Yeah, the FJR is different from the R1, but an engine is an engine...

Anyone know the northern side (North NC and Virginia) of the BRP well (and Skyline Drive through the Shenandoah?) My wife and I just rode about 200 miles (one way) on it (from Cherokee to Boone after doing the Dragon dance) and I found it extremely tiring. But I've alwyas wanted to ride it all...

The Sprint ST has always gotten good reviews, and Triumph came up with a really nice looking ST for '05. But it is a sport bike with bags, and never more so than last year when they had that awful system for attaching the bags. The older models had the ability to raise the exhaust can when the...

sport bike. late at night. no helmet. probably wears a helmet when he plays because the NFL requires it, otherwise... people say quarterbacks are smart. Hmm....

why must people always be bashing those poor Harley's? Besides, the fun of having an FJR, especially when you ride around with your bags on all the time, is that -tho' you may not be able to "smoke" 'em"- you can piss off a lot of sport bike riders out there who are not prepared for you to keep...

Jill, At this point, feeble as it may sound, all I can say is I'm really sorry this has happened. I have heard it said that most professional football players, whenever one of their team mates is hurt (especially a serious injury) walk away and turn their heads. Suposedly because they do not...

Rode a blue one the other day. the ZX14 seems to come ready for the future saddle bags. There is some kinda of loop&hook at each side of the rear end and a strange little cone with an allen bolt in the middle, half way down the passenger peg hanger on each side. Neither seems to have any real...

I have an '05 FJR and the Givi. I'm happy with what I got and with the price: Have the GiVi 46 with color matched top. I paid a very reasonable price for the whole set-up. Had the mounting rack powder coated black ($75) which looks great whenever I take the box and adapter off. Installed a...

Hey Galaxy, nice little heirloom you got passed. Sheesh! :rolleyes:

thanks, I checked that thread... Gonna look around a bit more or might contact the guy in Boulder

I'm looking for help with this, too. The chestnut roaster is not a problem for me until I ride two up. I took a long ride with the wife in 90 degree So. FL weather this weekend and I could really feel the heat on my left inner thigh. The Bagster seems like much more than what I need. The...
