This response is not directed at anyone in particular but simply a feeling I had after cummulatively reading this thread and thinking back to other threads I have read over the years. It is Probably not a good thought and just a sanity check for myself...so I apologize. :blink:
Just because some may prefer sport TOURING instead of SPORT touring, that is no reason to bash a thread that addresses the later. IMO the OP came to the forum and offered up a new option and information for SPORT tourers. Good for him and THAT is one of the reasons this forum is such a valuable resource. We need to encourage such activity from all members. If all you want to do is post comments about a fellow riders choice of riding style, suggest they learn how to ride properly and attempt to convince them to ride more like you do - then certainly there is a Harley thread somewhere you can contribute to! And just fyi...Since some here are sport TOURERS...if Colin Edwards or any other professional rode an FJR assertively, he would be dragging hard parts and throwing sparks. These are Sport Touring bikes.
Also, my center stand and kick stand are now getting scraped pretty badly as well. To possibly prevent these expensive items from needing to be replaced, Does anyone know of 'pegfeelers' that I could attach to them? And before anyone comments about my riding style and lack of proper riding technique... this weekend I am gonna read a book on how to correctly ride an FJR...so maybe I will not even need the pegfeelers next week. But it would be good to know if these items exist in case I cant comprehend all that technical stuff that certainly will be in the book.
