My two favorite bikes

[TruWrecks]

As I posted earlier, I miss my FJR really bad. I couldn't bare to give up my Busa to get one again, so I sold my DR650 and CBR100RR. I found a new 08 at a local dealer. I didn't get the best price on it, but I did get a fair deal. I brought it home Thursday afternoon. I have both of my favorite bikes now in my garage. :yahoo:

Today I'm officially back in the FJR saddle. The Busa will be my weekend and track bike. The FJR will serve commuting and long trips, or when I just don't feel up to riding the Busa. Somewhere on my way home the clutch lever must have fallen off.

The sun came out today and I got a few pictures. Without further ado:

Sweet! Enjoy them both :yahoo:

That's the first 08AE I've seen. I expected to see one or two at NAFO, but then again, I expected at least a dozen '08's....

nice combination B)

Nice bike! :clapping:

Too bad about about the clutch lever, do you think you will be able to find it before Fossil? Actually, its probably a good idea to go that route if you are going to use it for commuting where you live.

jhl - Nice ZX12. It looks like you also have the "Need for Speed" that a true hyperbike can only deliver.

007 - I think the Busa will be my ride of choice for Fossil. Both bikes will be a blast, so the decision is not easy.

Tru,

Congratulations! I was so sad to hear of you leaving "the Fold" after you helped us all out with the surge problem. It's great to hear you're back.

ps - get some help for that MBD...

My FJR now has a whopping 34 miles on the ODO. I'm going for a mileage record.

Congratulations. You must be feeling a little like I have, riding along on my "replacement" FJR with this running through my head:

"Been away so long I hardly knew the place

Gee, it's good to be back home

Leave it till tomorrow to unpack my case

Honey disconnect the phone

I'm back on the FJR

You don't know how lucky you are, boy

Back on the FJ

Back on the FJ

Back on the FJR"

Welcome back to the fun house. A lot of us are still grateful for all of your hard work on the surge issue.
