    I suppose when you put it that way... i put 4kish a year on my harley, and its not that comfortable... i suppose my comparison in my head was that mine is a 2006 with 12k, but i bought it new in 08... Wow, where is the :notworthy: emoticon when you need it. Incredible eye. I don't disagree...

    ... but Illinois is a no concealed carry state and by the time i find out a ride is going to go that way the gun cabinet is so very far away... :lol: I'll look for it, would be great to pick up a bike from a member or that a member previously owned. You can't always get it's history and its...

    Trading my HD for a FJR

    It is less desirable in the HD community, especially the vrod community. I don't get it either. The bike has the same power as any other vrod of it's day and better handling because of the suspension and height differences. Then again, most of the HD community can't be relied upon to make...

    Trading my HD for a FJR

    If you didn't want be an *** why did ya post? :P She is actually more opposed to the sport bike than spending a little money but although i asked for her thoughts on it, it is going to be my ride, thus i made that decision. She did agree that it was more comfortable though. The reason i am...

    Trading my HD for a FJR

    Its not that i don't make the decision i want, she doesn't want the FJR at all, she likes the traditional cruiser look. I get my way on that decision. I do value her opinion in dealing with financial matters, we need to be able to come to a compromise on things like this for many years to come...

    Trading my HD for a FJR

    I don't disagree at all, no one wants to leave possible dollars on the table. My trouble is in finding a buyer for mine. I couldn't stomache sitting on it too long, i suppose i may lose out by not wanting to take the risk. The dealer does generally hold all the cards except one. I can walk...

    Trading my HD for a FJR

    Thanks for the reply, that veskimo thing looks really cool.... no pun intended... or was it? I'm from a world where a complaint about heat is significant enough to cause a recall because of burnt pant legs, if it is merely going to be uncomfortable above 85, i think i can handle that, we don't...

    Trading my HD for a FJR

    I think dealership is going to be the way to go based on sales tax savings. I looked at the classafied section to get a feel for where these are selling at, do the fjrs regularly sell cheaper here than a dealer would be willing to take? I've seen a number of classifieds here for quite a bit...
