So many great trips, so little time. I have to include several photos -- hopefully I haven't overdone it for you. Only included FJR pics here, but some of my favorites were taken on my Gold Wing also. 1. Two of my favorite shots of my FJR were taken close to my home in Woodland Park, CO --...

We were in Packwood and Rainier a couple of weeks ago and the ranger old us that it would not be opening this season. Of course, this kind of info often changes. Sure would have liked to ride north over the pass.

I live at the base of Pikes Peak (Woodland Park) and had never ridden my Valk, 1800 Wing, or FJR to the top. In late July several 1800 Wing riders from Ohio were in town and were doing the Peak, so I led them up -- me on my 06 FJR. As is normal for 1800 Wings when running in that dead zone of...

Jackson etal, Unfortunately I must cancel this trip as I must now be in California that weekend for a Memorial Service for an elderly friend that I have known for years. He recently passed away and they are planning a Memorial Service that weekend when all of the family and friends can be...

The rides on my web page (in my signature block) may be just what you are looking for. Let me know what you think!

Check out my suggested rides in Colorado and southern Utah if you wish. Pretty nice riding. US-50 across NV is interesting, but VERY hot in the summer. Much better in late Sept or early october. Even better IMHO is NV-375 and US-6 a little further south. In WA highly recommend WA-20 all the...

Man, you guys are tough (and I'm being nice). Fred has his opinions on things, but he usually pretty close to being right on whether you like it or not. Yep, he likes to tinker with them, figure them out, and see how he can make improvements/changes to make a particular bike work better for...

Fred, As I indicated to you earlier and in my post above, my 2006 has not exhibited any of these problems -- as for recent rides I had the FJR on a trip in May from Woodland Park (8600) over Monarch Pass (almost 12k), then down as low as 3400k in northern AZ, and later back up to 12k in...

What is the year of your bike, current mileage and city/state in which you live? 2006 FJR1300A, 7000 miles, Woodland Park, CO Has your bike surged at altitude? If so, have you noticed any pattern as to a particular altitude the surging occurs? No (riding is normally in the 5k to 12k elevation...

Man, that sucks! I am loving the Storms on my FJR. Several k miles on it and no issues thus far. Hope it stays this way.

I've been off the board for the last month or so and it appears that this problem has gotten worse. Just for the record, my 2006 has never exhibited this problem and my altitude varies with every ride (I live at 8600 feet), usually in the 5k to 12k elevation. Is the problem only at the lower...

I'd like to chime-in on the VStream for my 06 also. Just got back this evening from a 2700 mile, 5-day trip CO>UT>northern AZ>southern UT>CO and could not be more pleased with a windshield. As I indicated in an earlier post, when it is up it looks big, but for the rider (unknown...

Dave --thanks much for the nice note. If we have to stop to gas-up I may swing around and say Hi!!!

My Colorado High Country Cruisers group will be heading down to Southern Utah for a 5-day trip starting Saturday. Should be a great time, and I just love riding through this awesome country. It looks like we'll have about 10 bikes on the trip, so we'll break down into two groups for some of the...

How did the Pirelli Diablo Strada E-Spec (rear) tires work out on your FJR? Were you able to compare with the Storms?

I checked the measurements on my 06 VStream and it is symmetrical -- no issues at all. Was out on the bike again today and must say that this is the right windshield for me. Very pleased. Wish I had saved a few bucks by getting it from University Motors, but that's the way it goes sometimes.

Those look absolutely great on the 07 -- I'm getting for my 06, but it sure looks like this is exactly what was needed to really set-off the 07 color -- JMHO.

Jackson -- Just sent you my registration information. Again, thanks for all the work on this!!!!

Did you check out the photos in the link that I included earlier in this thread? Not sure what you are looking for in the photos? If something special, let us know.

Sounds like UMotors is the best place for getting one -- good service and best price. I ordered mine from National Cycle before I knew I could get it much cheaper.
