fjr in an off road action..A must see video..!

[NightShine]

"Can I borrow your bike to ride to the store to grab some beverages?"

Exactly!

This almost hurt to watch. I'm thinking that the rider's other bike was down for repairs, so he just rode whatever bike was on hand. New pinstripe be damned...

 

[Doc4216]

Not sure if I think it's awesome or just plain stupid.

Certainly has some off road riding skills. Not sure how many times I'd have crashed my KTM out there, let alone my FJR.

No doubt on the skills, especially with an FJR!

 

[Mihalis fjr]

And finally,here is his bike a bit overloaded i think..

Surely i believe before the moto cross..

I really don't know if he has check his subframe after that..

Now I feel like a pussy for having to ride 2 miles of river rock.

 

[rushes]

The video reminds me of how a motorcyclist, up until the 60's maybe, rode their bike everywhere. You had no choice. You only had 1 bike. Go as far as you can and turn around only if you had to...

 

[creg-ny-baa]

Yeah, but those bikes didn't weigh 620 pounds and didn't wear $1K worth of bodywork.

 

[wfooshee]

Didn't specify road preferences in his GPS?

 

[Bounce]

Everyone's saying what I was thinking.

Glad he posted the video so everyone can avoid his bike when he sells it.

He's on the wrong side of the road.

What's with people who treat nice machinery like crap?

 

[Jer]

Fun! Wanna buy it?

Hey Don, isn't that your bike?

 

[Dudewado]

I thought it was Iggy going for that last bonus, until I saw him washing it.

 

[Ignacio]

I thought it was Iggy going for that last bonus, until I saw him washing it.

I was saying, "I'd do that!"......until I got to 4 minutes and 23 seconds. That is the point that I would have turned around....if it was my FJR. If it was Carver's I would have gone to about 7 minutes and 4 seconds. If Bust's I would have caught it on fire long before the 9 minute mark, but ridden it on burning rims.

 

[Blind Squirrel]

He was looking for Fred W ....

Did you see the color of the bike when he looked down... Bass Boat Blue. It IS Fred!

 

[Old Guy]

I think he misunderstood when someone told him to "ride it like you stole it."

Thanks for posting. I'd place this on my very short list of the most interesting motorcycle videos I've seen.

 

[FatNakedGuy]

damn women riders..

 

[okiesaki]

Hey!!! I think that's my bike. The buyer took it on a test ride and said he would be right back. I'm still waiting

 

[russperry]

I was thinking like Iggy on this one - up to about 4 minutes was looking sketchy but doable. At 4 minutes I'm thinking its looking crazy, then when he's weaving through fallen trees and across tree trunks running parallel to the track I'm thinking its downright insane.

The guy has some very enviable skills and cojones....

 

[Old Guy]

At 11:00 I thought he'd surely back out of that one. The track looks so muddy I thought the FJR would just sink to the axles and rot there. But nooooo.......

 

[wheatonFJR]

Reminded today at how awesome that video was.

TOTALLY trashed a nice bike. Looked like a fun adventure though.

I'd probably borrow extrememarine's black beauty to do something like that. I'd hate to scratch up my bike.

 

[bwv]

You Gen 1 guys are F**king crazy...

 

[Hudson]

Maybe you don't need that KTM 1190R after all says missus Hudson after watchin this video.

I show her Carver's subframe thread.

She falls silent for a moment. missus Hudson is like all gals...hates to be wrong.
Hates it more when it's pointed out with actual evidence.

Isn't that Don's driveway to the Hondarosa she asks, changing the subject.

Pretty sure it is, nods I, happy to let her recover the fumble.

Well... ok then.
