Chuck, I flew to Florida and rode that 06 back to Ohio....the spring unwind was the 1st mod I did to it. My right hand was killing me! Grip puppies are the shizz too, they keep your hands more relaxed since the grips are fatter. Knees and butt hurt? Try an Airhawk, it'll cushion your rear and...

Hopefully there's no video of the repeated attempts....

wynfjr, sorry to hear about your situation. I really can't complain compared to what you're going through. Hang in there and good luck. I've though about the pay scale thing of starting new somewhere else in the same field too. After 25 years of raises and a few promotions....not likely to be...

Well....actually it'll take quite some time before the weekly checks stop coming...I don't think a prospective employer would hold a job that long. I think I'd like to do something different too, I admit I was getting a bit burned out after 25 years. Just can't figure out how to get paid for...

08FJR4ME, Winner, winner, chicken dinner! I can't disclose too much, but this describes my situation very well. What sucks is if I take another job before my weekly severance package ends, they quit paying it. Finding another job at the rate I was making is highly doubtful. Not exactly...

Guess I shouldn't have sold the FJR for not having time to ride....just got 'downsized' today after 25 1/2 years. Big companies suck. There's no loyalty to employees anymore, it's all about the Benjamins. I did receive a pretty generous severance, but not looking forward to job hunting at 57...

Sold! Thanks again Chuck, I hope Bill enjoys his new toy.

Seems like that's the plan. I'll get her cleaned up this week(she's a bit dusty!) and maybe ride her to meet you guys with the SO following in the car. Then we'll do a little R&R in Pittsburgh. If they're calling for bad storms I'll probably strap her on the trailer. The bike...not the...

Chicks dig scars. The moral of the story is....put it on the centerstand BEFORE changing your pants!! Or at least let it cool down...

Excellent! Looking forward to it. I may ride it there to meet you guys with the wife following in the car, then we'll do a little R/R in Pittsburg. Easier than loading it on the trailer, plus I'll get one last ride in.....sniff! We just have to figure out when and where. Oh, and thanks again...

He texted a while ago, I'll get with him later today. Thanks for the referral!

Been playing with these... "https://i1194.photobucket.com/albums/aa370/not2shabby/20150507_191022_LLS_zpsssykczhp.jpg" "https://i1194.photobucket.com/albums/aa370/not2shabby/20150519_175610_zpsmtmioivk.jpg"...

Thanks! I'll probably regret it selling it when it's gone.

47xxx and may go up a bit. It's in Westerville, a suburb of Columbus Ohio. Thanks audiowize! I couldn't get anything to link the other day.

Anyway...06 with full Holeshot exhaust, PC3 with custom map, Penske shock, Race Tech gold valves and 1.0 springs up front, Sargent seats w/ stock front included, Shad 45 top case, factory heated grips, MCL risers, frame sliders, touring screen, bags for the saddlebags, spider recall done, and...

Ok...why can't I link the Craigslist ad or pics?

I've decided to let it go, just not getting used enough to justify keeping. I think I'm regressing....having more fun playing in the dirt! Asking $6500 on Craigslist; for my fellow board members, $6k and it's yours. Call or text 614-506-7530 if you have any questions. Thanks, Greg.

I didn't move the guard, it's kind of a pain to get the seal mate all the way around the tube with it there, but it can be done.

Same thing just happened with my 06; noticed a small puddle of fork oil under the left fork leg. I used a seal mate and couldn't get it to stop leaking and the plastic got bent up and I couldn't slip it all the way around the seal. That plastic fork leg protector doesn't make it easy either. So...

Just don't crank down too hard on the Canyon dancers, you can smash your throttle tube. I used soft ties around the forks over the lower tripple clamps and put most of the force there. Canyon dancer was more of a backup. +1 on tying the rear down enough to keep it from bouncing sideways and a...
