Hey S76, I was wondering: that circle game you used to play... do you ever find yourself transposing numbers, or seeing "b"s as "d"s ? Just wondering how the brain had handled all the electrical discharges. Synapses still firing okay, bud? :D :lol:

why did someone inject race into this web forum?! :blink: I have been offended by other excremental effusions on this board, but this really is the nadir. This forum is a place to discuss our addiction to motorcycles, and one type of mcycle in particular. (I was on the 12 step program for...

Okay, it's not a totally good story, this one, but thank the gods you are okay and you found the basretard so he has to pay. I guess they got the same kinda a-holes and idiots in your country, as they do in ours! Stay safe! ;)

Steve, thanks... ...but this bit of news is just too damned weird. Very strange thing. I'm truly sad.

I'm sorry to read of Larry's death. I signed the guest book for his Obituary. These ocurrences always make me reflect about myself as a rider, and as a husband. But then, I get on my bike and ride to work on I-95 in South Florida traffic, and I realize that we're all crazy and there's no...

Damn! I was just there less than a month ago and he was blowing out a whole bunch of the motorcycles. I bought several. I didn't see the FJR or I would'be bought it. I've dealt with these people before and they've always been straight with me. The owner is not real talkative in person, unless...

so there! :P

you don't seem to be getting much response on this, so I was curious if you had tried to contact the GiVi folks see if they would be willing to sell you one? I don't know if they'd sell you just the rack (don't see why not)? It might cost a little more, but... Vinnie

I'm always sorry when I hear that a rider has gone down. But your post gave me chills since I sometimes ride with my wife, and I would be real hard on myself if my wife ever got hurt. :( I'm sorry this happened to you both and I hope for your speedy recovery. As folks so succintly put it...

Hey Chiri1, I got back into riding (after almost 20 years) on a 1997 Suzuki Marauder. Did the Dragon on it without a problem. Was #131 in the Marauder-Intruder Group (numbers over a grand now). Bike was low to the ground (always scraped bottom on the bike trailer ramp), was fast and handled...

I appreciate your responses. My wife and I tow the bike out West once every few years and do some riding. Love the Cortez-Shiprock-Farmington-Durango loop. Done the Durango-Silverton ride a few times. Been up on the Mesa a few times. But we've been thinking about doing the trip on the bike...

anyone in the area of central New Mexico: what would anyone consider optimum time of the year to ride the 160 miles or so on hwy550 btwn Alburquerque and Farmington? Thanks

Always hate hearing about a rider going down BUT Man, you're soooo damned straight that you rode it home after the whole thing, so now it's just a pain in the wallet. But you know, the last time I "lost my balance on a bike" and cracked it all up (a fully faired and loaded Concours on a stupid...

My wife is 5' 7" 132 lbs: has been on 200 - 250 mile rides on our '92 Concours, our '99 Trophy 900 and the '03 Trophy 1200. All had top boxes for her to rest on, as does the FJR (Givi w/ no back pad). She prefers the FJR -with OEM seats- to all before. The Connie -being shaft driven- rated...

bought mine at Broward Motorsports... 10K miles so far, waiting for the ticking... Hope it never comes! <_<

Wanted to share that: My dealer had to order new gauges for my FJR. ('05). I've had an inconsistent problem since soon after I got the bike. The gauge needles wouldn't sweep on first start up. After idle, I would back it up, roll onto the driveway and turn it off. Sometimes, the gauges...

Got Staintunes Came with two allen head bolts with 17mm nuts w/plastic inserts. Besides that, does anyone have specs on the thread and gauge of this bolt? YESssssss, I lost one. :erm: I can get by without it, but would like to match it. If anyone has any idea, I'd greatly appreciate it...

1. Shows you what a stand-up company MamaYama is and, :o 2. There will be some bone gnawers who'll demand their money back and everybody else won't careand keep theirs and, :lol: 3. there's always that one dealer who'll buy them all... B)

I always ask nicely...even when I'm paying for something. :) Thanks for the tip. The iPod charger has a coiled cord of about 4', so there shouldn't be any problems. Thanks again... :rolleyes:

I like the power plug. Would like to keep my iPod plugged in on long trips. I know BMW makes something like it for their bikes. Anyone know where I can get something similar for the FJR? I'd love to retrofit my '05 with that new glove box that the '06s have. Or does anyone know where one can...
