Bump

Everything is gone.

Only thing left is the hitch (and free shock).

Includes bike and car mounts, a sunshade, original paperwork. Lifetime maps. Located in Cloquet, MN. $225 shipped.

I sold my 2008 FJR last year and it's time to clean out the garage of the parts I don't need anymore. Items are located in Cloquet, MN. All prices plus shipping and PayPal fee if you don't want to do PayPal F&F. MC Enterprises rear bag guards: these were hardly used as I left them on the...

I don't really care what people think, I'm just getting to the point where being all cramped up for a long time is less enjoyable.  I can stretch out on the Africa Twin WAY more than on the FJR, hence the mini bike comment, lol.  I suppose I could also show up on the AT...

My wife and I are expecting #3 next month, so I'll have to see if I have any vacation time left after that. Perhaps I can make a solo appearance this year.

Probably because in this part of the country pretty much all of the regular grade gas is 10% ethanol, whereas many gas stations have premium w/o.

Looks like we're out. :( Not going to work out with the two kiddos unfortunately. Perhaps next year.

Cat's out of the bag... we need the background story to fully appreciate this jab.

I'm confused, so you're retiring but not retiring???

Nice. I would recommend doubling the weight in the cooler and tire rack and give it a hard shake down for as many miles as you can. Even with 1/8 wall tubing, that's a lot of leverage and you could see cracks develop at the welded joints over time; would suck to stop for gas and find your...
