Title: Another New Guy Here!
Post by: glfredrick on January 19, 2012, 12:33:36 PM
Hello all...

Another new guy here.  I just relocated to Wisconsin and am faced with two opportunities, first I commute 42 miles to work every day to my primary job and about 20 miles to my secondry job, and second, the weather in Wisconsin is better for summer riding.   :good2:

That means that I am going to be in the market for a bike again and I have my sights set on an FJ 1200 this time.  Always wanted one, never had the cash or the time, and a lot of the time I was playing in the dirt anyway.  I am one of the co-founders of UCORA.org, a community of off-road enthusiasts from all over the world who also just happen to be Christians, but the group is open to everyone.

In any case, I'll feel my way around here, see what's up, and am definitely searching for a decent bike in the Wisconsin area!

Welcome,
  You can use searchtempest.com to look for Fjs in craigslist.  I just looked and found a couple up your way.  Here is one http://rmn.craigslist.org/mcy/2753472824.html (http://rmn.craigslist.org/mcy/2753472824.html)

These guys know their shit when it comes to FJs and seem to be a great bunch of folks.

Thanks guys...

I know about forums and about bikes.  At least once I own or use them I don't have to continue to pay the shady dude in the alley for my fix.   :yes:
