    Alright, almost every morning I see a black FJR with a top box on 295 heading south around Baymeadows. Usually a little after 7. Anybody here. I'm a former FJR owner now riding a black C14(found a really good deal). I'm always heading north towards Jax beach. Just curious if your on here. Josh

    New V-Strom 1000

    Didn't see it discussed already and was wondering what your thoughts are on the new v-strom 1000? I'm digging the new look! From the little bit of reading I have done it sounds like it is pretty much a new bike. What is the general consensus?

    2004 ABS SW Michigan

    I hate to do it, but I've decided to put my 04 up for sell. I know it's not the ideal time of year to sell, but I just received orders and am going to be deployed for a year. Really don't want to see it sit for that long and not sure yet were the family will be living while I'm gone, so it's...

    Two Brothers = too LOUD!

    Well, I was shopping around for a nice set of splip on's and couldn't make up my mind. I was leaning towards the holeshot slip-ons, but then saw a set of Two Brothers M2 black series. It was the first exhaust system that I saw that I really liked the look of. Well I got them in and good God...

    Body Caps

    Anyone have a set of body caps (used to plug the holes when the saddle bags are removed) they want to get rid of? Color doesn't matter as I'm having the bike painted. Not sure if there is a difference, but they will be used on a 04. I'm able to pay using paypal(gift). Would like to get these...

    So, I got orders to a school in Charleston for 5 weeks. I figured what better time to take a 950 mile bike ride! I'm really looking forward to the ride. I hate that I'm going to be away from the family for that long, but it will be really nice to have the weekends to get away and take some...

    Gen 1 gas cap removal?

    I was wondering if any of you might be able to help me out. I ordered the FSM, but it hasn't arrived yet and I need to get my bike ready for paint. So my question is how do you remove the gas cap? I would assume from looking at it that you would just need to remove the allen bolts, but I...

    I'm impressed!

    I am really impressed with this bike. I started riding street bikes at 16 and have had a ton since then. In 2003 I bought my first Harley and have rode them every since (I know not popular on this site). Recently I traded my 2006 Electra Glide for a 2004 FJR ABS. I can’t believe the...
