    Valve check/Valve adjustment in Dallas-Ft. Worth

    I'd offer to help ya, but I'm in Abilene. Haven't done a valve check on an FJR but have on two seperate crossplane R1's within the last 2 years. The concept is probably the same with bucket over shims. I'm retired so have the time, but don't drive to the metroplex unless I absolutely have to.

    B-21 Raider "Cerberus"

    SO grateful I'm retired now and don't gotta worry about any of the logistics with that plane. They'll be coming here to Abilene, TX (Dyess), but will be nice to see them flying overhead whenever they do.

    Parts Wanted 2008 Rear Shock Assy

    I don't know anything about this particular shock, but if Traxxion is selling them... they gotta stand behind them in some form or fashion. For around $400, it'd be worth a shot. I just spend over $500 to get my Penske rebuilt...

    Hill country FJR ride

    I'd be interested but that's a bad weekend for many folks with school aged kids. Spring break is next week and taking the family camping so that rules out the weekend for me. I'm all about a weekday ride. Much fewer people out there and less traffic.... what's not to like? Guess being...

    Added a new to me 2016 FJR1300A

    My 2016 FJR already came with Ivan's flash so I can't compare it to a stock '16 without it. Being able to use the cruise at ANY gear, at ANY speed is stupid fun. I sometimes cruise at 5mph just because I can. Granted.... I did buy the first FJR to ever get flashed.... bought Ivan's very...

    Gen 3 FJR compatible fork lift system

    YES, PitBull does make a front pin that is compatible for the Gen III FJR (assuming it has a hole in the bottom of the lower triple). It's pin #12 and works with their triple clamp/headlift stands. https://www.pit-bull.com/pin-12-front-f0001-012? Have one for my bike and works flawlessly...

    Hill country FJR ride

    I'm possibly a go for this. I'm 3 hours away from Kerrville and they are decent roads. Did the sisters last month and was surprisingly underwhelmed by them. I had did them a few years ago and enjoyed it more... this time I only like 337. But... if its an ONLY FJR group (meaning... no...

    Wanted: Bike with character

    guys on the forum I belong to say the 2013-2014, 2017 Honda CB1100 has lots of character. My '14 Deluxe is very pretty and I enjoy riding it. Perhaps, being a refined air cooled Honda, it lacks the character. But maybe it fits the bill.

    RIP Earl Hayden

    He was the only Hayden that I liked. Talked to him a few times and seemed like a very nice and humble guy. He shoulda taught his boys not to whine or complain as often....
