Hi Troy

I Was going on the Snowy Ride this year but an unplanned event arose!

I know what you went through with the R1's, I'm usually having Fun chasing 2 mates on fireblades,

But I don't mind, at least the coffee has been ordered when I pull up,

and I Do Like what I ride.

Cheers Alan

Mr. Moparman, thanks mate, you picked up the essence of my intention, but the discussion is almost as fun to read that the 'Clinton V Trump' thread  :sarcastic:.

Long Live the Mighty FJ.

true that -- agreed

I've noticed over the years I've owned my FJs the comments have gone from "I used to have one of those" to "my Dad (or Uncle) used to have one of those"...

That's what's cool about the Fj. It's a "I used to have one of those". And yet I've had people think it was a new model. One was an fjr owner.

A bunch of years ago I was making reservations for the ECFR.  We were going to stay at the Cherohala Campground and I was talking to the owner by phone. 

This was the old/original owner.  In the course of making reservations I mentioned that I was attending an FJ rally.  He got kind of excited and said that he owned an FJ back in the day.  He also said the other phrase that we're used to hearing: "It was a great bike and I never should have sold it."

I asked what bike he owned after the FJ.   He couldn't remember.
