Nice bike Nivin. Should suit your style of riding for years to come, lol.

So.. track day?

#6, Because here are over 1,000 rnds of .30-06 on clips that make your argument invalid.

Tah Daaaah!! Corbin Smuggler. Boy did you keep that a secret.

@RidersDiscount sells Vortex, I bet Mike could hook you up with a good deal.

When I was first getting into racing and working as a janitor (second job) to fund it, and buy an engagement ring, someone asked me why a guy like me was cleaning toilets. "I've got an expensive girlfriend and a more expensive hobby." "what's the hobby" "racing sport bikes" (5 second pause) "quit the girlfriend."

Well it's been a slowly oozing public knowledge about this addict failing to quit motorcycling again. Last year sold both bikes- vstrom and Daytona by the end of fall. Was some what content with the decision about quitting (third attempt in 3yrs) and living along when some one did a Leonardo decap style inception about FJR into this volatile brain. Well the thought kept brewing and before the first snow hit right before winter a used 2nd gen fjr came along for good price and I couldn't resist because of good old price and being way more foolish than I thought I would ever become I set out to rip up the bike and upgrade and finish up the maintenance. Drowned few more Hundys into it and this is it. Blue Piggy with some lipstick Ready for touring duties

Already done during winter boredom with hardly any miles of experience, one ride was all it took to realize shock was crapped

Ohlins shock and GP parts in the forks changed mine dramatically.

Congrats on the new toy and happy birthday! new toys are the best

& Happy Birthday Nivin!

Nice bike, Doc. You just need to embrace your addiction and go with it. It's therapy for life. Enjoy it. I think we all understand.

Maybe we can get Rt. 33 in this year. I think you will like it.

This was what the little birdies were telling me about for a while but I kept my mouth shut..lol Congrats Doc, I think people are seeing every day what we are doing with these ST machines and want a piece of it. The days of them being labeled slow and heavy are over. I've never felt like the FJR was my grove after riding a few but the Connie songs my song for sure. Only thing I would replace her with is a Motus and my bank account says that will never happen.

They look pretty cool too

The fjr is on my list, but probably not gonna happen this year.

Till what time will u guys be hanging around? I am working unfortunately, but will try to start early and finish up to come see at least the tail end of the story what do they call it, oh the climax

That's a sexy yam ya got there nivin. Be a shame if you were to sell it....

Juggle them.

Man you change bikes more often than I change underwear. Congrats.

Probably skin to make sure he's staying tough enough to ride with more than 1 day old tires.

Well I finally decided after all the research that if I could get a pair of leather riding pants that feel as comfortable as jeans, that I would go that route. Decided to go with Icon Hypersport Stealth riding pants. Track spec leather in all the right places as well as adjustable armor in the knees. I put them on and was surprised at how comfortable they are. The only drawback is no pockets, but I rock a tank bag so not really an issue for me. I am really excited to try them out this season. Thank you Mike @RidersDiscount for the excellent price and very happy with my first purchase from Riders Discount, ordered on Tuesday and got them on Thursday. I will definitely purchasing more from you guys in the future!

Seriously. Who the fuck cares. If you want to ride without gear knock yourself out. If you want low cut boots jeans and a helmet go for it. America fuck yeah. This thread is absolute shit

IP comes back as shopify more dispute recourse there? https://dig.whois.com.au/ip/23.227.38.32

Now go get it calibrated to NIST standards!

We need @jschaf in here. He has a spreadsheet under his seat for what pressures to set the tires at depending upon the ambient air temps. Bet he has a kick ass pressure gauge.

Another one, if I don't know you (friend of a friend kinda thing) and we have not rode together before, if riding in a small group, do not ride next to me like we are Ponch and John from CHiPS
