    Barbecued FJR

    As with everything, when the dust settles (or the smoke clears), only the memories remain.

    Witnesses for 50 CC April 10-12?

    Will you post a Spotwalla link so we can follow along? If so, I can time a ride down to meet y'all coming in - always fun and a backup witness.

    Fuel fill up question ...

    The instructions on the container of Plutonium don't specify the orientation of the Flux Capacitor for refueling. (If I'm reading it correctly; But it gets confusing, trying to keep track when the instructions are in Arabic, Farsi, and - when I buy it at Wally World - Chinese.) So... 1) Side...

    Opinions of MCL highway pegs

    Like several of us, I'm blessed/cursed with long legs. (I can step over/straddle. 36" dog kennel with no problem) I have highway pegs on my Wingabago that necessitate a wide spread to get my shins around the lower fairing. Didn't take long to get used to that position and I can ride from tank...

    Split: Buying FJR in Canada & Importing to US

    We Californians can import a bike (or car, truck, etc.) from anywhere. Just one small hitch: the vehicle must have 7500+ miles on the odo *at the time of purchase*. So, no. We can't buy a new one from out of state. Unless we use a straw man and play games.

    Don - she's a beauty. I better go down and reassure Lucille that she's pretty, too. JSNS.

    200FJR 1300.Tons of Farkles 8500.00

    Having had the pleasure of seeing this bike in person, I'll testify that the paint job is even better than the photos. That, and the long list of farkles? Buy the Smuggler - it's worth it!

    What did you do to your FJR today?

    Took her out for a ride, then parked her between her sisters. It's supposed to rain all week - hooray! https://i1341.photobucket.com/albums/o750/Bret_Gross/image_zpswasid0ih.jpeg

    Ignition key hard to remove and insert

    Great thread! Now I have to go down to the garage and talk to the girls. They almost had me convinced that I was only supposed to remove the keys in order to fill the fuel tanks. They can be SO manipulative. In a good way! Happy new year.

    Chandler AZ, 01-16-16, BeemerDon's Service

    Since my bride has family in the PHX area, we'll drive out in our mini van. I'll volunteer to be designated driver for a few souls who wish a ride après wake. Caveat: I'm a stick-in-the-mud and will leave sometime after sunset! If you're planning on pushing through until dawn, Uber is your best bet.

    Chandler AZ, 01-16-16, BeemerDon's Service

    Though I wish to attend, I'm tied up until after New Years. If the service is on 12/31, I'll take (another) ride in his honor here near home.

    Please post your photos/stories of Beemerdons here

    I (mostly) lurked around the forum for about a year before I contacted Don regarding purchasing Miss Lucy Liu. I was pretty sure that she'd be in "as represented" condition, so I wasn't concerned. But Don really didn't know me from Adam. Imagine my surprise when, without hesitation, he agreed...

    RIP Beemerdons

    Just... stunned. The first time I met Don was when he picked me up at PHX, when I flew out to buy Lucille (Lucy Liu). We'll be at his wake/memorial - wherever, whenever. Ride In Paradise, brother Don.

    Beemerdon Compilation (Put all your BD jokes here)

    Poor Don, reduced to Bushmills. My Irish friends (who only drink Jameson) call Bushmills "Protestant piss".
