Welcome to the show. There's a lot of nice riding in your area. North to Springtown or Azle. South to Grandbury and Glen Rose. See you around sometime. An RTE would be good.

DUH! Just dawned on me that the manual's wording is poor. Should read. "whenever brake related parts are removed" I'll take a Dope Slap right about now.

I've done the usual brake maintenance more than once in the past without any issues. Changed pads, bled the lines. Getting ready now to bleed the lines again and just noticed a warning at the top of the Service Manual guide for this procedure and it states: "WARNING. Always bleed the brake...

Excellent ideas and suggestions from all of you. I will likely go with the coil bound method. This forum has saved me again and again.

Many of you folks own the FJR Service Manual. The darn thing is about 2 inches thick and the spine is not as sturdy as it should be. My 11 year old manual is beginning to come apart with pages becoming detached from the spine. I've googled for book repair services and what I find are outfits...

Great to have another nut in the nuthouse. You're gonna love that bike. Superb for loooooong trips or just errands around town. You sound like very handy mechanic.

Never heard of a collapsible milk crate. I'll be looking into that also. Thanks Ross!

Your DIY mod is superb IMHO. I've used a common milk crate for years despite its not so pretty appearance. It's damn functional, nearly indestructible and securely held to the luggage plate with four very solid bolts. However, your solution is much better looking and far more affordable than...

Welcome to the club! I've owned my 2010 model for 10 years now and have had no regrets. Best of luck with all your travels.

I took this photo when I visited in June 2017. Not sure what year it is.

That seat looks to be comfy as all get out. My ass is jealous. Best wishes for safe travels.

Superb photo of Mammoth Springs complex. Wish I had stopped and walked around it some when I passed thru some years ago. Safe travels.

I rode thru that area a few years ago. Best trip of my life. Best wishes. Go where your spirit guides you.

Your words touch my soul. Every day we get to wake up is a blessing. Best of luck selling your bike to someone who will love it as much as you surely have. Time moves on.

Hot diggity dog! You've got some lovely scenery to ride thru in both states. Welcome to the asylum.

You're gonna love it. Excellent machine for putting lots of miles on in a single day. Carries a bunch of camping gear if you're into sleeping on the ground in a tent. Best of luck and Happy Trails!

Oh the fun you're gonna have with your new scoot! Welcome aboard! You've got a super partner in life.

I've learned a heck of a lot in my ten years of FJR ownership from this forum. Made a few repairs on my own that no doubt saved me a lot of money and headaches from having to rely on a dealer. You will soon discover the folks who really know their bike business. Happy Trails!

Howdy from Texas John! (Fort Worth) Thanks for the pics. That color of blue on your bike looks terrific. Hope you get to enjoy thousands of kilometers touring the lovely country you live in.

Get the right agent. I suspect there could be substance for a movie in this story. Congratulations on an awesome acheivement.
