    Hi guys, haven't been on the board for while, too busy with life and riding the bike to spend time talking about the bike. But, sometimes tough things happen, and I've made the heartbreaking call to put my beloved FJR up for sale. Details are posted here...

    FirstGear Mesh Tex XL

    Bought this jacket brand new in 2009, wore for one summer, then lost 40 pounds. Great jacket, but doesn't fit. Been meaning to post if for sale, it just sits in the back of my closet. So finally dragged it out so I could take a pic and post it. Great condition. $75obo + shipping. PM on this...

    Madjackdog injury update

    I too had not read of your accident until now. Praying for your continued recovery. I came to the FJR after a string of Porsches and can recommend good folks at rennlist.com, and the local PCA chapter. I'd sure welcome you sticking around on this board too :-)

    FJR or RT, Used Bike Prices

    I thought for sure I wanted an RT but a friend convinced me to try an FJR before pulling the trigger. Take the advice already offered and ride one. Totally will cement your thinking one way or another. I ride year round, and I think the RT would still be the better winter bike and maybe better...

    Warm Hands.... FINALLY!

    Not to derail this thread or to detract from the recommendations offered, but for what it's worth, and given this, For what it's worth, I ride year round in Oregon, and it ain't Michigan by any stretch, but this last week it's been freezing fog the entire week. All of my riding this week has...

    Schuberth C3 Helmets

    What made you choose the SMH10 over the Scala built into the neck roll? And do you notice any additional drag/buffeting/noise with Sena on the side? Is it still easy to operate located far enough back to accommodate the visor lever?
