    Home Safe

    Blindman and Mrs both made it home safely. Just posting this because I was accused of being just some perverted lurker on the forum at NAFO. See I really do post once in a great while. Thanks to everyone who worked on putting this together. Great time, great rides and great company all around.

    SW WI calling me again...last pre-snow blast

    Crap, I'm missing out again. I love the roads up there. Wish I could make it, but I'll be out of town all weekend. Just watch out for the deer and John Deeres. It's harvest time. Scott

    Ride to Peoria TT races

    blitzer, I'm not going to be able to make it. I'll be moving 2 of the 3 kids back to college in August. Son starts his senior year on 8/20 and daughter her freshman year on 8/27. I'll be putting the miles on the pickup rather than the fjr in August. Scott

    Sorry I'm late. The parts list/instructions that Beardo links to is the same one I found in my FJR spares box this morning. Sorry I wasn't able to find this faster. Scott

    GIVI SR346 Top Case Mounting Rack Installation Help

    I'm going from memory here, but I seem to recall only 5 unique parts. 1 was a shorter bolt for the rear rack hole. The other four were sleeve bushings to prevent the Givi rack channels from collapsing when you tightened the mounting bolts. I probably still have the instructions with the...

    There are times it is good to be a blindman. I'm pretty sure this is one of those times. :D

    Chicago and area fjr riders get together

    Although it was hot, there was a pretty good turnout being Fathers Day and all. I think there 11 riders and a couple of wives. Nice putting faces to the boardnames. Looking forward to the next one. Scott
