    WTB glove box

    I need a complete assembled glove box for a 2005 FJR (others years should work?). I just need the box with the physical locking mechanism in working order. my electronics are still good. I busted the little locking pieces in the latch. thanks, greg

    FREE Pirelli Diablo Strada when you buy a rear

    this got entirely too complicated. I'm just gonna see what my local dealer has in stock or can get in short time. I did however enjoy the calendar. if anybody actually succeeds in getting a rear "E" tire and free front tire, let us know :-)

    What shield for me?

    thanks for all of the "relevant" input. If I make a decision, I'll be sure to post back with results. got up to 80F today...finally some good riding weather. I need the new shield for the winter and a new Shoei X-11 for Texas summers :- ) too many hobbies. not enough cash :-(

    What shield for me?

    I am 5"10" tall and weigh 180lbs. The stock shield on my 05 FJR will block some of the wind when all the way up, but it creates a lot of turbulence. If I tuck in, it becomes perefctly quiet and smooth. But, I don't ride in a tucked in position. I live in central texas, so I ride more when it's...

    Dang weather, teasing me...

    It's cold (actually freezing) and wet here in Austin. I don't like taking the Jeep into work in these conditions, much less do I get to ride. This blows!

    Texas vacation ?

    don't let these guys scare you. In central Texas we have some of the best year round riding conditions. April and May should be better than average. It can ran for several days in a row, but that's pretty uncommon down here. Come on down, I think you'll find it a bit warm coming from Wisconsin :-)

    North Texas Feejers meet South Texas Feejers

    Sounds like the 15th is looking pretty good. We'll keep talking it up and try to get some plans going. Lockhart is a great place for BBQ, and also very close to where I'm at. It's a little east of where I'm at, and not really headed towards the Hill Country. I'd like to do a Friday night in...

    WFO-5

    I might be up for this. I'll see if I can keep enough vacation time on the books to make it happen. It's a little out of the way, but going through the Wassatch near Salt Lake would be a beautiful ride!

    North Texas Feejers meet South Texas Feejers

    I'm all for you DFW guys making a weekend out of it and coming south to the Hill Country. The rides out of Leakey/bandera are the best I've seen in Texas. The South Texas/houston guys get together every so often for just such a ride. It would be cool to get some of the DFW bunch down here for...

    North Texas Feejers meet South Texas Feejers

    I was noticing all the activity in the DFW thread. Although somewhat quiet recently, I know we have a good contingency of Feejers in the Austin/San Antonio/Houston area. Some of you may have heard of a place called Coopers in Llano, Texas. It's some pretty good BBQ and a good ride from almost...

    Digital Video Camera

    I bought a JVC digital, 20 gigabyte Hard drive based camcorder recently. It will record for a long time (4.5 hours at the highest quality, 24 hours at the low quality). Of course, that depends on your power source. Now, all that sounds good. But apparently, the HD based cameras don;t like...

    what's the best tankbag?

    I'm also running a TourMaster Cortech. I'm not sure if it's the "Mini". I'm very happy with it. Tons of pockets, map viewing slot, expansion slots for when you pick up too much stuff running errands.

    Riding season is over in Texas!

    WOW. What the heck is up with the weather! I won't even go out in the Jeep, much less the 2 -wheeler. I can't recall seeing a more potent winter ice storm in central Texas. it's the first time I've seen things starting to ice over while the sun was up! hope you guys have fun if you get out to...
