No Garage Queens allowed in this thread!

This thread is all about those FJR Pilots who RIDE!!!! So post up, and I'll add you to the list.

Blue=highest mileage for a model year of FJR. Actual mileage will be listed. Red=That FJR is no longer with us.

(BTW, proper protocol dictates that whenever another FJR rider is in the presence of the top rider on the list, they are to buy him a beverage of the Top Dog's choice!) ;)

Added: Link to blufjr's mileage milestone avatars. Thanks for doing this Ken! Clicky for Mileage Milestone Avatars!

I just cleared the 91,000 mile mark on the '07. Do I get to count the 18,000 put on the '05 in eight months too?

Nice try. Still, not a bad amount of miles for a Gen II fag. :crazy:

EDIT: 12/06/2019:  Re-establish link to Medallions.😀

EDIT: 5/24/2016: Comcast/Infinity dropped there hosting of web pages and pictures. Lost the Avatars at that time. I have reposted them to Imgur. If they show up here, you can copy and paste in you Signature Edit feature. I also added the Yamaha Club Avatars for those that can't seam, or don't want to, rack up 100K on one bike.

If any of you are looking for that special signature avatar (?) to express your pride in sticking with one ride, and that ride providing for you all those miles. Like these:
f1hOz4N.jpg
This one for Gray Ghost or anyone else that has logged 500K on FJR's
59SwHSP.jpg


You will find all 100K, 200K, 250K, 300K (Year Color) CLUB's (clicky), for the different years 03-15:

Just left click on image, click on view image, copy https:// location, then use "insert image" in tool bar to locate in your signature. Show us your pride. Top mileage member is The Gray Ghost with 395K on one 03 FJR and 105K on two 03 FJR's (Greg is catching him with the use of 4 or 5 FJR's:

Just turned 80483 miles on my 2006 AE.

Bought the thing new in November '06
Proud to say they weren't all just commute miles either.

Since you were nice enough to include a 50K slot for us bottom feeders, I will post up.

58K miles on my '06, which I purchased 8/23/06.

56k on an 06 purchase in July 06

Ahhhh, what the hell....can't compete with most of you basties, but just turned 50,000 this weekend.

Probably would have been 100K if not for 1 year of inactivity followed by 10 months of rebuild time.

C'est la vie.

Skoot....you're a crazy bastard! Have fun managing the thread.

Greg, FYI my data is substantially off. Feel free either to check the FJR 1300 registry since this data is already captured and regularly update there...or pull it off if I'm going to need to also update it here.

Thanks. ;)

65,400 '03, but only 25,000 are mine. Judge me as to fitness.

Daily rider, fun is on weekends when I've got gas money. (Not very often, lately. :( )

As for beverages, ScooterG, you're not gonna be able to walk around by yourself soon, or you're gonna find people turning around and leaving when they see ya coming. . . . .

BTW, your own registry info is significantly out of date, even though you still top that list. Only 171,000 displayed there.
