Crickets!
Just go in your garage and take a picture of the like model that you obviously have in your collection and post it. We won't know the difference.

But, but, but I am pretty! And I want to see SacMikey's ugly mug ruining the beauty of his FJR!

I sure miss Bustanut Joker with his mad photoshop skillz!

How about putting the face on a photo of each of ScooterG's FJRs one for each month. If he doesn't own 12 FJRs it gives him a target to shoot for. :D

He'd have to figure out which 12 to use, I'm sure.

LOL! :lol: :lol: :lol: NOW I understand all your confusion. That's freaking OLD Michael on the '23 Jasen posted. Hell, I'm not NEARLY as old as he looks! And that old geezer rides a Gold Wing anyway. Guess GixxerJ should have waited and let Bust do the photoshopping. It's true, though. Putting the wrong face on a beautiful FJR makes it look terrible. Like a Hippo. Or a Harley.

Speaking of Bust anyone know how he is doing?

I miss the days of off topic comments from Zilla, Don Stanley, Bust, ScooterG and others.

That's because the sheep are the "workhorses" of his stable.

Alpacas are the Maserati of sheep. Years ago I rode by an Alpaca farm so I took a few photos for a rise report. When I got home checked Alpaca prices. Gadzooks!

That when I coined the term Alpacas are the Maserati of sheep for the ride report.

I think Barry went through some cancer treatment. At least that what I might have seen on FakeBook. Zilla "retired" and then got another job and his kids play travel sports, so he's busy AF. We know where Don is and Scooter is too busy servicing all the dick he can find in europe.

For all you impatient fellers, Let's just say I finally got it figgered out. Might have had some help. ;)

That seat cover is for those who don't have a Russell Day Long Saddle. JSNS.
