  • It's only really cold if you fall down in it.

That is what happens when you ride an FJR and get distracted looking for sixth gear....

At least C-14 saddlebags have the decency to just fall off the bike without requiring any kind of rider induced jolt or bump.

Pretty safe to say that new FJR is broken in.

I'm just about to the deletion point with this topic...  Rick is such a kinder gentler guy than I....plus he was up later than me.

Relax you guys.  Not everyone reads EVERY post on the forum and when the subject lines read differently folks don't know they have a duplicate, triplicate, etc.  Folks just want to share something interesting.  Makes a good case for accurate subject lines though so people might recognize a previous post as the same as theirs.

Yeah, but within a few threads of each other?  On the same page?  I don't think so.  My patience has worn thin, unlike me, on this subject.  Hey, I get it, everyone wants to see an FJR fall into the water multiple times but this is getting ridiculous. >:(

It's also amazing when I go to a thread and see no videos so I have nothing to compare to or even to reference from.
