    Thinking about taking my teenage son cross-country

    How old is your daughter and what size does she wear? I have a Joe Rocket jacket that I don't use anymore... PM me or OrangevaleFJR if you are interested.... Ride safe, Sherri

    Nope, no Pirelli tires yet. How many miles you have on them Diablo Stradas? (does that translate to Devil Land?)

    FJR RIDE to Hell Holr & tem some

    I bet we'll see BBIII with an '06 or '07. We got his bike today. Basically all the plastic on the right side is toast from upper fairing all the way around to the tail piece. The TOG is bent severely and ground down about 40% of its width and the mounting bracket (no hole in the fairing type)...

    SS1K for 3 and the start of a Bunburner for another

    Mr. TWN, Sir, That was a great ride report! Pictures or no! Glad you found your receipts! Tell me, if you hadn't found them, would you have attempted the SS1K or the BB again? I can't believe you guys took a leak in front of Area 51! Nice going! (Andrew had forgotten to tell me about that...

    2 day new things getting damaged left and right

    Ok now folks, one more mention about karma and I will be upset. As a believer in karma, you should understand that we are good people. This just seems to be bad luck.

    Sorry I missed last weekend's ride...

    Yeah, I can kill the back pain with the R & C and then die from liver failure! Sounds like fun! B) I'll try to be optimistic until I see the specialist next month. Maybe he will be better than I anticipate. I do think I should talk to Highlander though. Perhaps he has some insight.

    Sorry I missed last weekend's ride...

    Andrew had a great time with everyone on last weekend's ride and relayed to me everyone wishing me well with my back problems. They are much appreciated! Thanks! The MRI report came today and I don't know whether to be happy or discouraged. I mean, the report makes it sound like a minor set of...

    I was right and wrong.

    Sheesh! What some guys won't do to get attention, I tell ya! :D Really, Andrew, if you needed more attention, all you had to do was ask! ;) hehe

    My very first FARKLE!!!

    Oh hell! Why don't we just turn the living room into the motorcycle room! We could just get rid of the couches and fill it up with motorcycles with comfy seats! ;)

    My very first FARKLE!!!

    Oh please! Andrew hasn't stopped talking dual sport! :rolleyes: But now that you mention it, maybe this was his way of distracting me.... hmmm... :glare: We have been working on cleaning out the garage to be able to fit the FJR and the new car in there... I hope this new car doesn't mean...

    My very first FARKLE!!!

    Rad, Every girl needs a comfy way to get to the grocery store so that I can better utilize the kitchen appliances. No worries, I only intend to use the car so that I can best take care of my man. :lol: :P

    My very first FARKLE!!!

    My wonderful husband bought me a new car - Isn't she pretty? :) (It's a '06 Honda Accord EX V6 Coupe) I know, technically, she's not an FJR, but she really is an FJR at heart (cool, fast and sporty)! Anyway, I wanted to share that today she will get her very first FARKLE!! The dealer is...

    Orangevale, ca to Colorado 9/1

    So, Andrew just left (a little behind schedule). Today is Saturday. He asked me to post that he will be going through Pagosa Springs tomorrow and if there is anyone there that would like to ride a bit with him, to call his cell phone. (If you don't have it, PM me for it.) Thanks, Sherri

    Orangevale, ca to Colorado 9/1

    Honey, I really wish you wouldn't try to do a SS1k while riding one up and with no other bikes... :unsure: I'd like to keep you around. ILU

    Rider down and he owes a thank you

    Hey now! It sounds like your wife and I could be sisters! Hot pink is my favorite color! The problem is that you can't find paint in a shade that doesn't remind you of Barbie or bubble gum (in my opinion)... otherwise, I'd have Andrew paint our FJR that color! :lol: Honestly though, I think...

    Pillion Knee Pain Question

    See! I completely believe that it has to do with the knee being extended over the toes (all physical therapists will tell you not to squat down so far that your knee extends over your toes)! I have never had problems with my knees and this just feels like too much pressure for too long a period...

    Pillion Knee Pain Question

    Hey, maybe you could take me for a ride on your '06... no, wait... then Andrew would probably end up wanting to buy an '06 too... we have 3 kids, one in college and two more to go to college in the next two years - something tells me we shouldn't be buying anymore motorcycles! :D I think I...

    Pillion Knee Pain Question

    Oh no worries there! I would never let Andrew get rid of the FJR and there is no way I would even consider getting on a Goldwing (sorry if I offend anyone, they just aren't anywhere as cool as an FJR)! I'll suffer if I have to! :D Sherri

    Pillion Knee Pain Question

    Thanks! I appreciate the support! :D I don't want him to have to add something to his bike that he doesn't want though... I would feel bad. I guess I'll start with Advil and stretching my legs out before I feel the pain and see if that works. If not, well, maybe I'll drive the car. :)
