    2011 Orange VA

He works his butt off, 12-14 hour days, (she doesn't work) for her and the kids and all he gets in return is crap and no enjoyment out of life.

    Vista Cruise for 2007 FJR

    Wynpro air induction plates

    Other than remove some plumbing, do they help the bike to run any better?? I removed then from my 1700 RoadStar to clean up the look of the engine but didn't think it ran any better.

    Custom luggage rack question

    I got / found one from JCW. Price was right. I sanded it down, hit it with some satin black. Looks decent, holds lots of "stuff."
