    FJR purchase

    Gary, I used these sliders on my '06: https://www.bikejohnny.com/cgi-bin/store/BK...=YA40-03-CP0184 They did a great job with the one parking lot tip over. I did go down at about 40 mph and the sliders did a fairly good job of sparing the sides but there was still so much damage to the upper...

    SFO Report from cub reporter.

    I couldn't agree more with everything Scott has said about Tony and his dealership. I'm hoping to pick up an '08 in December from him. To the rest of you folks that made it to SFO, I am so jealous. Reading through this thread brought back so many good memories of the year before. Those of us...

    Black FJR

    My kids have already named my soon to be new aquisition Vader. I loved the color on my '06 and was a little dissappointed when I saw the '08 color revealed about a day after my insurance company told me the '06 was a total loss. The more I think about it though, the more I agree with Andre...

    Where should I sleep Saturday night?

    Once again, your singular talent for ambiguity shines through. For those of us lacking mind-reading abilities, how was the weekend?

    That Desert Metallic is hands down the hottest paint I've seen on these bikes.

    '08 News

    Has anyone run across pricing information from our favorite vendors? I got a voicemail from D&H saying 11,999 for the A. I'm going to call them back to confirm.

    new 2008 fjr Raven black

    I called D&H to get pricing information. They called me back and left me a voicemail saying $11,999 on the A. I didn't ask about the AE. I still can't believe I trashed my '06. I'm eager to see what Tony O will do on the '08 since he sold me the '06.

    My guess is that most of the pictures out there right now are photochopped. Can't wait to hear from first hand observations.

    '08 News

    Thanks to the early demise of my '06 I'm more than a little curious about the '08. Has anyone looked at the 360 view of the raven bike? 360 link The black looks a little better here, but who is to know if any of these pictures are of actual production bikes. Does anyone remember when the...

    What kind of timing. I got the call this morning telling me that my '06 is totalled. Anyone happen to run across any pricing from our favorite vendors?

    DFW area group

    I need a recommendation on a shop in the mid-cities area. I went down last Saturday and banged up the bike pretty good. I did manage to make some repairs in Muenster and ride it home and aside from the steering being a little tweaked, it seemed in pretty good shape all things considered...

    DFW area group

    We need to at least get a group together for some lunch and catching up. Like bounce though, my schedule is pretty full these days. This coming Saturday is probably my shot and that's only about 50/50 right now.

    Recommendations for FJR Alternative?

    ABS really is a great option and will likely affect your options if that becomes a must have. As far as the height of the windscreen, be sure you look at the aftermarket options out there for the various bikes. I've seen a few really good ST transformations of bikes like FZ6's and YZF600R's.

    FJR Trivia. Kyle Chandler FJR pilot

    So I decided to check on the NBC site to see one of the few shows I actually try to watch was going to be airing next season, Friday Night Lights. (probably has something to do with growing up in Odessa, TX and attending Permian High School) Anyway, I clicked the link for the Finale Blog and...

    trip 4-22 to 4-26 Hill country

    Watch yourself down there. Look for the gravel and dirt washed onto the road mid-turns. Also, I think it's 336? You'll find cattleguards across the road surface. Not a big deal really as long as you know they're coming. Great riding down there. Have fun!
