Yeah, I don't know what kind of stinky bait Fairlaner uses, but sure seems to work good!

Hey, some of us have to actually wear a liner in our jacket from time to time. It makes the jacket fit all snug and stuff and is uncomfortable. Plus it's so annoying to have to close a vent or two in the helmet. Those icy little drafts will drive you nuts. Makes me almost just want to park the bike for the winter.</p></blockquote>
LOL yeah this hehe

Ok, I think I have a problem here. I brought my 08 FJR AE in today for the 16,000 mile service to get it ready to put up for sale. I’m filling out the service authorization when the U Motors owner sees me there.
He jokingly asks if I’m getting my break in service done for the new FJR I bought last week. I tell him ”I’m just getting my 08 serviced and ready to list for sale” and joke “unless you want to trade it for the 2012 Tenere you have in a box out back.” He says "sure", I say "how much", he shoots me a pretty good deal and I try to act cool and offer the FJR as is, without the 16,000 mile service. He accepts and I stood there dumbfounded and stammering wondering what the wife is going to say about two new bikes in two weeks.
After a quick call to the wife and some even quicker talking, it looks like I bought a Tenere.

Waaaaaaaah!!!!!
We broke 35 year old records here in Phoenix. In the past week I have ridden in temps of 21, 25, 27, 30 and 34 degrees. Freaking cold. I knew I should have put in the wiring for the heated gear.
I know your pansy ass never even took the FJR out. Pussy.

My boss was itching for some new computer equipment a while back. He already had a pretty impressive setup but wanted more. He said his wife had put her foot down and said if he got anything else, she was getting a new China cabinet.Looks like you may soon be enjoying some new furniture, bought without your input.After a quick call to the wife and some even quicker talking, it looks like I bought a Tenere.
A few days later I spotted him at the computer store with his wife. I said "Hey Jim, what color is the new China cabinet?"
I got a very curt "Eff you!" from him.

I got to page 7 of this thread and couldn't stand it any longer (in a good way, tho). I haven't read yet (didn't find anything in a quick search, either) if.... The Fly By Wire thottle takes less pressure to twist than the other generations? Ajdustable?
OK, now I'm gonna dig back to find page 8 and continue reading. So far, it's reading like it may be time to go back to a new bike WITH a clutch handle! I think I remember how to work that left hand.... maybe...

Is it Beer:30 yet?
I dont think its adjustable, but not sure. Nothing in the owners manual suggests it is. It definitely takes less force to twist. Feels pretty good.

Yes 20valves and Gixxerjasen I may have to pay. We had our 25th anniversary last June and she wanted a ring. I convinced her it wasn’t in the cards since we were in the process of flipping a house. Now that the house is sold and I’ve just purchased a Ducati, a FJR and a Tenere this winter I’m afraid I’m out of excuses.My boss was itching for some new computer equipment a while back.
