My one line summary of that review would be. "The FJR does everything it's supposed to so well it's boring."

Nov and Dec are great because of the riding weather, but I bet it's going to be difficult to get a big crowd cause of Holiday engagements. For me - I am only open one weekend in Nov, the weekend after Thanksgiving. Lakeland area is fine by me.

My speedo is 2 mph lower then my Garmin Zuma at 80mph. 2013 A I guess 80mph might be a limitation out west, but here in the east it's fine by me. While I go over 80 at times I never really want to set my cruise at 80+

This thread has been enlightening. Not the part about Yamaha saying not to change the modes while riding. I remember reading that. I am just surprised so many of you guys switch back and forth. I guess it makes sense cause that's why the bike has two modes. For some reason I tried both when I...

Yamaha has some nice new models. I love the new FZ-10, but I also like having a driver's license.

Actually we have a scheduling conflict for AIMExpo. We have reservations in the Keys Sun-Wed. Hopefully storms don't mess that up. If I get everything done this week there is a SLIGHT chance I might try to run up there Saturday. Can I just buy a ticket at the door?

I knew you would like it. Barber is a class operation. They do things right. I hated missing it. I am not really anti Harley, but it's really nice to go to an event with that many kinds of bikes represented. I find when going to bike events in Florida it's about 90% Harley. At Barber you see...

I met rtwdoug and Polly a year or so ago at a Florida event. They are good people. Very friendly and open.

Well, we are on Plan B now. Decide to cancel on Barber. We think travel up through Florida will just be too difficult. Might be too many people evacuating. So we are staying put. I have a safe home. I hate missing Barber, but probably best not to be on the road right now. The good thing is I...

Talked my wife into going. So I am going. Going to button up the house with hurricane shutters tonight. Hit the road in the morning. The house will be there when I get back ..........or it wont.

Looks like Hurricane Mathew is going to cause me problems. I am supposed to leave in the morning. However, my house is just west of the hurricanes predicted course. We will probably at the very least get tropical storm force winds. Wednesday is too early to tell where the hurricane is heading...

I always like your reports HP. Funny living in South Florida, LA is so similar in many ways and so different in many ways. We have some very similar features like canals and dikes, etc. Crops are similar. Landscape in a few places is very similar. You guys have food influenced by the Cajuns...

David and I had a great ride Saturday. Went on some nice back roads just west of Ocala. Some pretty horse country. Good meeting you David we will have to do it again soon.

Yes, so far it's just me. Tina's tent camping days are mostly over. She likes having the trailer along. So she lets this be my trip.

Awesome Steve! Yes, I am going. I purchased my tickets the day they went on sale. You have to jump quick sometimes to get a camping spot. I am in Lot B which is the Tent area. Did you guys get a camping spot in Barber? You could bring the Matchless to ride around the perimeter road. Lots of...

Sounds good! I have no phone service once I get to my cabin. We will have to make plans before hand. I will PM you my cell number.

Lots of good answers already. I am a simple user. I don't take advantage of all the features so here is my list. 1. I can't see my phone in the sun! I have to stop find some shade and hope I can make out what it says. 2. I have to take my glove off to work the phone. 3. ATT has terrible...

I forgot about EOM being in September. I have so many trips planned this year I am using up my time. So no EOM for me. AIMExpo is the same weekend we have reservations to go camping in Bahia Honda State Park. Getting reservation in that state park is like winning the lottery so no AIMExpo for...

Great weekend. https://www.barbermuseum.org/events/barber-vintage-festival/ I went last year and had a great time. Anyone going?

Just throwing this out here. Someone mentioned the Yahala Bakery. Never been there, but it sounds good.
