Just a little over 3 hours for me to that area, so I would be up for one. I would be out if it was on the first weekend in June. But hey you just have to pick a date that works for the most people. It's nice we are doing these more often. That way if you miss one there is another one coming...

I have heard several different FJRs with aftermarket exhaust, including my own. I still think YummYam's with the Beowulfs sounds the best. Hard to explain but it seems to have a deeper more pleasant tone.

This works better ;-) That looks pretty cool. https://ridingintohistory.org/ I am ready to go tomorrow. However it will be just me. Tina ran off to visit her sisters.

Cows, trees, fence posts, roadkill,........................

Nice! That is a good looking bike. Doesn't really look like you need to do any cosmetic restoration. Looks nice in the pictures.

Tony if you want help coming up with a scenic route I know most of those roads. I ride this whole area pretty often. If you are looking for a way to ride 1,000 miles before lunch you are on your own. ;-)

We may not have mountains or curves, but we can do beach rides all year long!!!

Tony My wife planned an event there for Saturday. We rode over and there ended up being 27 people. The did a great job accommodating us. We ordered off the regular menu. I don't think you have to do the group rate and menu unless you want to. They put us in the back room. I like sitting...

Those Indians sure are pretty. I really like the Scout my wife has. She wants me to trade my Honda cruiser in on one of those Big Indians. If I did get one it would probably be a Chief Vintage. That is a nice looking big, but I am done with big and slow. I am actually wanting to trade the...

Been there several times and it's always been good. I normally just have a sandwich of some type. They have all been good. Pie is not always my favorite but that Walnut pie is great. Most Pecan pies are too sweet for me. The Walnut they make there is just right, plus it has ice cream. In...

I am really enjoying the video pass. I like seeing all the sessions building up to the race. I have been watching free practice, qualifying and the race. Then watch the post race conference. Interesting to get the riders take on things. After watching a couple of interviews I come away with the...

Looking at the first two trailers posted it really depends on why you want a trailer. Those trailers would be fine for taking your bike to the dealership for repairs or getting an FJR off the side of the road and limping home. For taking a long trip at highway speeds not so much. I would hate to...

Actually the FZ-07 has the same seat height as an FJR. But it's probably going to be a couple hundred pounds lighter.<br /><br />I would love to have an FZ-07 but not a touring model. I want one to just zip around on day rides when you don't need<br />something as big as an FJR.

I like this jacket. https://www.revzilla.com/motorcycle/revit-tornado-2-hv-jacket It's a bit over $300 but comes with a thick quilted waterproof liner. So it can be used year around. Well, year round in Texas or in Florida like I do. I replaced some entry level gear with this jacket. It...

Under Armour and mesh gear!!! No need for a rain suit. You are dry after 10 minutes of riding.

Couple good points already. It will be hot. It will probably be crowded, but it will also be great. The Keys are a cool place. I am a couple hours away and try to ride down a couple times a year. The winds will not be bad on the bridge. In fact most days it's a relief to go over a big bridge...

When you guys are talking about practicing the stops you are still progressively pulling on the front brake right? I mean pull hard enough to get the front end to sit down. Then progressively pull harder. I know it might happen in a panic, but I am scared to just grab a fist full of front...

I always like the XR1200X in black from a few years ago. Not enough to buy one, but thought it was a cool bike. It didn't sale well and was dropped. Hopefully this one will do better.

I agree with Skooter. The first time you feel the ABS kick in does not need to be while you are avoiding a collision. It's a bit disconcerting the first few times even in a clean safe parking lot.

I would really,really have to like a bike to purchase one without ABS now. I normally practice panic stops on the FJR. It really surprises me just how fast you can get an FJR stopped. A new bike without ABS is probably a deal breaker for me.
