Rode an FJR today

[S76]

Welcome to the forum fellow Connecticutite!

Look into some heated gear. This cool weather is some of the best riding.

I'm already electrified, autumn and spring are my favorite seasons. When I rode up to look at the FJR yesterday the seller seemed impressed that I was riding in such conditions, he thought it was too "cold and windy". First thing he did after starting the bike was point out the temp reading on the dash, 50 degrees, brrrrrr.

I'm gonna need a little help with the language around here;

I've seen the term Gunny used a few times.

Also, someone asked if I liked knitting. Is there a weekly FJR sewing circle I should know about?

Ha ha. That is clearly a colloquialism. It's a spin off the forum member GunMD. It is the equivalent of +1 in any other forum.

People in the other bike forums thing we run sewing circles here in FJR land. Something about the average age of an FJR owner being over the hill.

Wisdom comes with age. Sometimes it's really just dementia, but can be interpreted as wisdom (ref: Peter Sellers in "Being There")... Not sure which particular disease I am afflicted with. Probably several...

Does not sound like you need to join the "Sewing Auxilary". CC

Oh yeah, I forget to mention. I also bought an FJR today. :yahoo:

Maybe the complaints are coming from owners of the Gen 1 models. Phil

Buncha pussies! All of 'em <_< !!!!!!!

Every friday, starts at 8pm est! Don't sign up if you plan on missing ANY meetings, twowheel gets really catty if you miss w/o a legitimate excuse!

What's all the fuss about? Simple. Some people just like to nit-pick everything to death. Sure the Gen I's had a couple of issues, but I have to laugh when I read the throttle springs are too stiff, or the windscreen buffets us a bit. Jeeze, what have we become? :unknw:

Complaining about the Gen II FJR, is like complaining about a new Corvette. :crazy:

:vampire: Happy Halloween!!! :superstition:
