    Motels in Duluth

    stryg8r is right. Camping at Spirit Mountain is the way to go for the VBR. Sloped sleeping at it's finest. Hey, it's a ski area, it not suppose to be flat. Great views of Lake Superior and the beautiful West end of Duluth. I was at the VBR2 and it was great. Good draw from around the country...

    Alex, Thanks for the link. I placed an order for a FZ1 fuseblock plus wiring kit on Saturday. I should have added on saddlebag reflectors, but had a brain fart. Maybe it was a moment of fiscal responsibility or down right cheapness.

    Bought an 05 ABS today. Wow!

    Warpdrv, The Cookie name goes back to college in the very early 70s. The origin of the name remains secret to protect the guilty. The deal on my 05 was fantastic. Most of the ones I looked at were in the $6500 to $7200 range. I got this one for $5900 with ABS and the factory top case. The bike...

    NBB, I live close to Stinson and 37th. I'll watch for you. I get through Blaine frequently. My Mom still has a place on Coon Lake. I've logged too many miles on Hwy 65. I prefer riding North on Lexington, especially past Coon Lake Beach. Nice stretch of curves for a while. I was riding my...

    Bought an 05 ABS today. Wow!

    I think there's a good chance I'll make the tech day. I usually head North for the Fishing Opener, but after last year, I may sit it out. Had one really bad situation and three of us almost died. Who ever though fishing could be life threating. I'm sticking to motorcycles. It's a lot safer. I...

    Bought an 05 ABS today. Wow!

    Gary, It didn't cost me anything.....yet. I'm sure I'll be buying Roger a few brews after the kick stands are down after the next ride. Yes, I did keep him stable after a crash and was the one that called his wife. I'm sure he would do the same for me. I hope he never has to. I've all ready had...

    Jogle, Good luck on the sale. I thought it would be sold by now. The bike looks to be in great shape and is priced right. I found a 05 ABS this weekend 30 minutes from my house. 13,600 miles and in great shape. It was priced low and I was lucky enough to be the first of six to see it. I got to...

    Bought an 05 ABS today. Wow!

    Tony, Sorry about breaking your heart, but I got lucky on this one. I had my heart set on an 06 listed here in the Twin Cities. Due to the full time job and a commitment on Saturday AM, I couldn't look at the bike until Saturday afternoon. After work on Friday I rounded up a big stack of $100...

    Bought an 05 ABS today. Wow!

    Oh No, I didn't know about the foil hat! I know about the draw to farkle world. I feel it's strength taking over my wallet. This happened on the last bike, too. I should write this stuff down. Good thing I got my taxes done last week. The urge to ride is strong. The lawn will probably never get...

    Bought an 05 ABS today. Wow!

    I bought it from a private party off of craigslist. It came up this AM. A great deal. All I can say is WOW! What an upgrade. This is going to be fun. I'll watch for you in the neighborhood. I work in St Paul and commute on one of the bikes.

    Bought an 05 ABS today. Wow!

    I've been lusting of FJRs for a while. I have an 01 Connie and a 04 CBR 600F4i. Even though I'm an active COG member, the call to the FJR fold was invading my brain like super signals from Outer Space. It was becoming mind consuming. I have a number of friends on FJRs and have riden them in the...

    Jogle, Thanks for the photos. Nice looking bike and very well farkled. I am looking at a few other FJRs closer to home, so don't hold it for me. I'll probably regret make that statement, but I don't want you to miss the chance to sell it. I'll let you know if I change my mind. I'm facing some...
