We are first and foremost a forum for the discussion of Yamaha FJRs. We do get to stretch our boundaries pretty good on that one.
Even gun topics that start off technical start getting political, opinionated, ugly, divisive and foolish. We are just too large and diverse as a group for it to be otherwise.

It is a rare day that I cannot fill my saddlebags with ammo and pistols cows for a ride to the indoor range for a combination stress relief ride. I realize most of you do not have that luxury this time of year. If you guys can just stay jolly through Christmas...
