    Any FJR1300 or Sports Touring Riders?

    I am in the south shore and looking to meet up with other FJR1300 or sports touring riders in the area.

    I've got a VFR800.. so it has less CCs, but at least it's a better bike I'm always up for a ride though.

    Had an FJR, once, not now.

    Have a Guzzi, now, it's for sale.

    Try the FJR forum. There are quite a few guys around here on that site. Including the guy that bought mine.

    Be prepared to be disappointed with the riding down here compared to NH.... but there is some decent stuff around... just more traffic and bad drivers (and cops)...

    If you ever make it over this way, I'd love to ride the 1200 if you're willing to swap for a few minutes.

    Head west, then we can ride some better roads.


    I think ever bike I own counts as a sport touring bike. Except for the SV. That's more of a woods bike.

    I wish my 1200 made half the glorious noise that comes out of the 800
