I think we picked out bikes up around the same time. My right hand/numbing issue went away after I relaxed on the bike. Did yours do the same?

Definately looking into the Corbin Smuggler. That thing was pretty cool....UPDATE!!! $800 ......UM, yeah, looked great....ON HIS BIKE....no way in h3ll i'm paying $799 for a glovebox...ouch. They are mighty proud of that box. Yeah, I don't see times on the pics priors, but I had heard that he...

I saw another fellow on there who had an FJR, pulled up next to me at Deal's. It was an 06. I asked him if he was on the forum, but he said no. Perhaps he'll hook up here. One thing he had, that I thought was "AWESOME", was a replacement for his backseat that was like a large "glove...

You know, the numbing issue with the grips was directly proportional to the time I owned the bike. I did put "grip puppy" type of covers on it, and it is nice, but I really think I'm just "relaxed" with it now. I don't notice the numbing as much. Now, putting the grips over the heated grip kind...

I did the Tail of the Dragon and the Skyway this weekend. Can't remember having that much fun. We spent the entire Sunday in the rain, but it was a great time and well worth the trip. I can't say enough about what the 400 mile trip did for me. The one thing I will say is "I love my FJR"....omg...

LOL...I was expecting the weenie to be hanging from a string, and some hot chick on the back of a bike....lol.

I just bought my 03 FJR at a good deal as well. I really enjoy it, but I will ride it for a couple of years and truly decide if I will buy a new one. Course, I would hope they would update the bike by that time. Looks like 2011 is a bust "unless you don't have heated grips" yet. I would like to...

I will be doing the Dragon's Tail/teeth/..whatever...this weekend. I'm expecting another mountain road like anything else in N GA. Take my time and enjoy it. Going to stay in Pigeon Forge Sat night. I'm really excited about it. It will be my first time on the Tail. I'm actually more excited...

Congratz!!! My daughter is making her choice here. She's looking at the AF or the Navy. God bless and keep them both safe!

Slightly disturbing… It’s 2010. Who am I to ask…?

Gregory, When is the BBQ?

Well. I pulled the trigger tonight. I ended up with the Shoei tz-r tc-5 erratix. Last year's model for $275.00. Think I could have paid a little too much than buying it over the web. I should have tried it on, and then bought over the web, but oh well. I like the fit. I like the price. I'm...

Sweet!!! Good news is good news!

Well, I certainly appreciate the input. I'm torn now. Fit is a major concern of course. The helmet I have now shifts, or tries when I hit 70…..NOT GOOD…. I’m reading that the Aria has better ventilation, but the Shoei is a bit quieter, which makes sense. I’m also seeing that the Aria has a...

I didn't want to hijack the other fellow's thread, but I did want to hear some of the more experienced opinions. I was going to meet a fellow tomorrow about a Arai Quantum 2 XL helmet for $300. He wants $50 more for the tinted glass, which I probably won't get at this time, though I would like...
