DNFs are not necessarily machine failures.
More people riding a certain brand means more chances for a deer strike, get off or missing the cut off time.
I had a 2004 BMW with servo assist abs brakes. With the engine off they barely did anything. BMW called it residual braking. That sucked when the ABS went out 600 miles from home.
I have the same dehydrator. I give a lot away and get the most compliments on ground deer meat from the jerky gun. 4.5 hours and its done, I use curing salt since I usual do 15 pound batches.
That was me who beeped with my buddies on his 2014 FJR and Goldwing. We hopped over to Hundred on 7 then got smacked with the storm on 250 on the way back. Lots of debris on 26 and 260 but we had 380 miles of fun.
Fred,
I'd be in but I'm in Charlotte tonight, heading to Meridian Mississippi tomorrow. I won't be home until noon on Saturday.
Plus my FJR needs new rubber, got to find a new dealer in the meantime.
Tom - My recently retired co-worker lives in Bear Rocks has a sweet 20-gallon system. I also talked him into buying a pink 2014 FJR. We should get together and sample our brews.
I'm not brewing but fermenting 24 gallons of wine.
My friend and I bought are FJRs there. WynPro (Dave) drove from Massachusetts to get one of the 2015s. Hillview also recently joined the forum. Great guys to deal with.
