    Helibars Group Buy for FJR Triple Clamp

    Good on ya for organizing a group buy! as opposed to not reading the forum guidelines and just asking when one would be done

    Thanks for the kick in the pants reminder pegscraper...got caught up with work/life business, blah blah blah I called the hotel to see if we could move to the later June date since that seemed slightly more popular. Unfortunately, they have another group coming that weekend and they have every...

    Loud Pipes (When Lane Splitting In California)

    This. All the noise from the loud pipes is behind the bike. Think about when you pass a Harley with straight pipes...the sound goes away as soon as you're along side them.

    YCC-S SH___46 code, related to high altitude ECU swap?

    Warning: seemingly strange question ahead Did you also have new tires put on? I know of a guy who had new tires installed by the dealer, and they forgot to put the ABS sensor back in.

    My 2013 FJR "Naomie" is happily home in Papa Chuy Viejo's Garage; Excellent Service by Ride Now Powersports; GEN III FJR's Rule and GEN II's do Drool!

    I'm scratching my head at this one too...all I've ever heard from him is how they're a bunch of incompetent crooks.

    Well, if it ends up being the last weekend in June, there might be a couple folks coming from CFR in Ontario.

    Of course we have woods over here (at least in CO). Well...some of them are left...a lot of them caught fire last year!

    How is the giddy-up-and-go on the FJR motor, 0-80mph?

    I remember riding with a buddy who has an FZ1. When we would turn onto a new road for instance (say, after a stop sign), I'd punch it to force a smile After the ride, he told me he couldn't keep up when I did that. It was mostly a gearing thing, but I'll take it either way

    Unfortunately, no pool (there is a hot tub though). As an added bonus, this hotel has a nice "patio" type area in the center of the place which served as a nice spot for post-ride hanging out, drinking and general bullshitting. (oh, and a Liquor store across the street).

    Yes, I remember reading about that...glad both of you are (relatively) ok! And it was an excuse to get a new(er) bike! :P You could always trailer it down...I know of a certain BMW fanatic who may have done that last year. Fortunately, there weren't any incriminating photos as evidence. Oh...

    SW-FOG 2013 - Official Announcement

    Ok, I hear the complaints. As Wheaton said, there are prime times to ride certain parts of the country, and for Colorado, I believe that to be mid-late June and mid-late August. July can get hot...not as hot as other parts of the country, but the valleys can get fairly warm (especially San Luis...

    SW-FOG 2013 - Official Announcement

    Because I'm a competitive SOB, and wanted to compete with CFR! I really didn't expect this to be a problem given the geographical expanse between the two. Also, consider this is a regional rally...while we certainly welcome anyone and everyone, the primary audience is for those in the SW...

    Odd, It won't let me properly capitalize "SW-FOG" in the title...it keeps making letters lowercase
