Thanks for the info! I've forwarded all your replies to Kevin. Some he made faces at :derisive: :glare: :rolleyes: I'll let you know which if any do the trick for him. Mary

Today, Kevin and I began our search for a new bike. Suprisingly, he decided that since we had this "do over" maybe we should look at other sport touring bikes? We have time, we have more information now than the first time, and we have more opinion! We loved our FJR, but still and all, we'll...

We went to Silverton, Colorado late last fall, where we took the Jeep. Did I mention that besides motorcycles and 4-wheelers, Kevin Jeeps! So, I'm not typically terribly fearful, but seriously... I HATE heights. High burned out lightbulbs stayed burned out in my house! But, Kevin loves Jeeping...

I was in Ark in the fall, haven't seen the Spring, but I definitely hope to do so this next year. I assume the summers are as hot as they are here in Central Oklahoma. By mid July the mid-day temps are in the upper 90s, usually. This year was freakishly hot early in the year. Was a rotten year...

Really? None of the checks? So far, we've received 3. One for the FJR, one for Kevin's personal property and one for my personal property, by which I mean our gear, helmets, clothes. They're are still some pretty sizeable medical bills yet to be paid, and they've "hinted" at pain and suffering...

Me too, Edmond! Howdy! I KNEW I'd seen another FJR in town! Kevin's in Yukon - and an early-model lives there, too. It's blue, so I'm guessing an '05. Yes, folks, it's time to clear up the misconception. Kevin's not the hubby, he's The Beau! A point that always causes my elderly auntie to...

Thanks again for sharing your story, and I am interested in your trip details out to Arkansas. Something I would like to do in the spring. -Scotty Scotty, I highly recommend NW (I think I said NE in my first post) Arkansas riding. Look up The Crawford Cabins in Jasper ARK. Sweet people, nice...

Believe it or not, he stopped. Everyone's been surprised by that, but he did. Kinda funny substory here. As they EMTs were dealing with Kevin, I was as you might expect, quite wound up. So, I began to gather our gear and bike parts that were strewn down the highway, when I came across this...

Well in terms of gear -- obviously mine came away pretty much unscathed, enough scratches on my helmet and boots to warrant replacing them. His? Destroyed. Our jackets - leather. Our boots - leather - and not the cheap-HD-fashiony stuff. Our gloves - leather. His pants - double-thick Carharts...

Hi All, Thanks for reading my first post here. I've actually been snooping since this time last year when my beau told me he was going to replace our ride - a pretty little 1980 Kawasaki 1000 LTD - his boyhood dream bike. Frankly - and I'd never admit this to him - as pretty as she is, her...
