Ok I'm a dog for taking pics!
decided to get up early and finish the bike got done at noon! road the cascades here 240 mile ride was a great ride
nice out 80ish in central Oregon maybe 70s in the cascades. Bike ran real good made mid 40's mpg mostly 60-70 mph
the FJ seamed to like 65 to 85 it hashad a little buzz at 55or so much smoother at 65ish and that was my first ride on this Bike.
