You run the radar detector, deal?No Trunk Monkeys allowed!As long as the parade is 5 or less riders, goes at a reasonable pace (you know, doesn't slow down the Goldwing riders)......I'm hip with that.

Anybody that rides with me knows I don't need a radar detector.

It was ONE harley with a group of other bikes and I was being a responsible group leader!

Phew!
I was getting worried there. The FYB I know only gets passed by Harleys if he's parked at a rest stop.
Yeah, you might not want to ride with me. I'm kind of pokey.

It was 2 Harley's and a UJM if I recall correctly that passed us on the right while Bob was leading us on the Chernobal Parkway. I understand the Harley's figured they had a chance with my Hippo in the rear but I'm sure they were blown away passing FJR's on the Parkway.
Can't say another word as I swore to secrecy or something like that over a few cold ones in the EOM parking lot. Bob is a great group leader and must be obeyed.
Damn that was a fun day!

Now you are making shit up. We were NOT on the Cherahala! Just try and pass me on that road! We were on the slab section of the Great Smokey Mt. Expressway. Doug!

I was thinking there had to be some kind of good reason...like maybe you were fixing a flat tire or something.
Oh, and Bob has always been a great group leader, at least as long as I've ridden with him.

Hell I didn't know where we were, I was just another tourist following Bob.Now you are making shit up. We were NOT on the Cherahala! Just try and pass me on that road! We were on the slab section of the Great Smokey Mt. Expressway. Doug!
I'm not passing anyone (except Harley's) with the Hippo however the 990 is another story.

Ya may want to rethink riding with this old fart too. About two years ago I was at 10 points on the SC 12 pt Rickter Scale.

Yeah...our beloved FJR's were not made to stay within the speed limit. It takes very precise throttle control just to keep it within the 5-10 mph over limit, in most areas.

I noticed as much.
I need to seriously consider putting this on my '15 calander.
CFR in July, CFO & EOM in Sept. would certainly cover an amazing spectrum of riding.

You could barely keep that Hippo on the road, from what I remember...
