Took the FJR out for a nice WV ride today. Made it over to New River Gorge, and finally rode down to the bottom. Wet leaves can be tricky on switchbacks.

I may be in for this. I could meet up at Mcconnelsville if you're coming that way.

I received confirmation for my Saddlesore 1000 today. Finally made official. A slow process for sure.

MSRP in 2000 was $11,999. 17 years later NADA says average retail $2485. Where are the included Hookers and Blow?

Poor Toby... Best of luck to your future endeavors. As someone who currently going through a job change, it's a lot of hassle and uncertainty, but I say it's worth it.

If you're struggling with driving a work truck, I would say a day trip on a sport touring bike is gonna be just as bad if not worse. Yes, they are comfortable, but not without some stress on the body.

You mean Pikes Peak...Then Everest

Today marks 1 year since I started eating healthy and exercising. Down more than 60 pounds, more muscle strength, and I can now run at a decent pace. I got big plans for the winter, hoping to lose some more and also work on more strength training.

Or electronic suspension.

And throw in travel expenses for several trips.

$25k would get you into pretty much any sport touring bike or adventure bike with room for accessories. Both have been considered the swiss army knife of bikes.

Lol, and the Honda shop is directly across the river from 536. Maybe a demo day..... I'll be mainly at the Indian shop in Mineral Wells, WV.

Well, interview went great! Got a great job offer. Put in my 2 weeks notice at my current employer. Looks like I will be the new Marketing Manager at Ohio Valley Indian/All Seasons Powersports Can-Am/Country Roads Ford & Honda. My 2 favorite things, graphic design and motorcycles.

Yeah, he is gonna keep it though, just wants a more serious touring bike.

Went to the dealer today. Dad is most likely going to preorder a Goldwing Tour. $1000 deposit and they said he should have it in January.

Got a job interview tomorrow. Getting some sleep tonight is gonna be rough.

The last two times I've been on trips without "You know who" we didn't have mechanical failures. Too soon?

Can I get a price on a pair of SIDI All Road Goretex Boots?

I'd say we got extremely lucky with the awesome weather we had.

Wow that's a heck of a camera mount setup.

I've rode both within a 2 week period, and I feel like the FZ10 has better wind protection than the FZ1. Europe already has a FZ10 touring model. Not ideal for luggage, but it's possible. Especially for like a 2 or 3 day trip. https://www.yamaha-motor.eu/uk/products/motorcycles/hyper-naked/mt-10-tourer-edition.aspx?view=featurestechspecs&mode=colors#gallery=color|image=https://cdn.yamaha-motor.eu/product_assets/2017/MT10TE/950-75/2017-Yamaha-MT10-Tourer-Edition-EU-Night-Fluo-Studio-002.jpg

Working on Potato machines today. Got some parts ordered for the FJR, getting ready for major services.

Welcome!
