closest thing would be a Harley 1200 Sportster....especially the new XR1200, and yes, they are very reliable and fun! Good deals on slightly used H-D's right now, too... don't knock 'em till you try riding...<BG> All of the Harley riders are NOT RUBS's and idiots,<G>.... many of...

I got 43 mpg on my 05... I'll let you use that number...<G> Hmmmmm..... I also got 43 on my 03 Harley and my 02 Bandit 1200... Only 40 with the 06 Triumph Speedmaster (800cc)... so the bigger the engine, the better mpg! .... :yahoo: Mary

Thanks! I still miss riding the FJR... I just don't miss wrestling it around at slippery gas stations....<G> for some reason I seem to always end up at the pump with the recent oil slick... and no, there were not old H-D's right there before me! <LOL> If I were to do another FJR...

Did that with my 05. Problem was that I took off more than 1"...found out the next day on my sort of cross country ride that under that nice thick foam is some very soft soft soft not thick at all foam. It was like sitting on a board from Ohio to Cali and back. I also had the Koubla links, a...

and then there's always a sidecar....

Oh, I so want to say on the baby buggy, but I won't! :rolleyes: Mary

Hope you like the FJR. Remember, you went from a lightweight throw around very high revving lil screamer to a rather humongous extremely fast get from one end of the coast to the other in a hurry bike. And it has enuf room for all your luggage including the wife's hair dryer. Taking the...

Now why in the world would they want to stay in a "luxury, insulated dog house" when... YOU're inside and they want to be with you! Nothing quite like the smell of wet dog! Hope you're doing well.. Take care, Mary

Which is exactly why so many guys I know just keep their old Harleys'.. Not new, not fast, but not complicated, either. mary

You can always keep it and sell it later for college tuition money! :( anyway.... I can sympathise... I stopped riding when I had kids...actually, I was also 6 months pregnant. That did have something to do with it! :rolleyes: After my then husband's little 450 Suzuki wore out, he rode...

Cool bike! But I sure wish I'd know about Bobby's when I was in Everett a couple of years ago.. Lau lau... got poi? <G> Mary

Could someone please explain to me why the deer alert stuff is always high pitched? I was watching a herd of about 15 of Ohio's nice fat cornfed deer try to cross the road... only about 25 miles away from Aurora, (that's neither here no there, but there is a lot of deer in NE Ohio!) Was...

Way cool! And I totally understand the "vertically challenged" part! I still miss the FJR! mary

I went the opposite way, but not an IB.. From San Diego to Ohio in the beginning of April, and it was cold out west. hell, it was cold back East! <G> I hope you have heated gear. Warn & Safe stuff is good, they also have heated pants liners....yeah, I know you have a fairing, and I was...

Kudos to your daughter and all the kids in the military. They have my sincere appreciation. What I learned this year. I don't have an FJR any more, but this is an illuminating and interesting forum. In many ways! :rolleyes: 115F in Texas is hot. 30F in Texas is cold. Just about anything...
