Went for a ride today on the FXR3
« on: April 10, 2011, 02:09:12 AM »

First long ride on the bike since I got it, and I must say........ These bikes are so much fun to ride :D No windshield, and a half faced helmet = pure joy! Never use my half face, but now I know why I have it. Priceless, without a shield. These EVO motors are the cats meeeeeeeoooooow. This thing runs like a top and handles like a dream. Just thought I'd give a newb's opinion of an FXR, compared to my Road King. Night and freakin day difference.

Because I had to ride alone to MV from Boston, I decided to trailer down and bring the Street Glide and my FXR4.  I got to ride the dragon twice with each, plus alternated each day on the group rides.  It was fun. Draggin' the kickstand most of the time.  Two different rides, both fun.

Yeah, when i got back from my trip home with the bike "full face" no shield almost 180 miles... 6'4" ..34" inseam and using the mids the whole way , i took my wife out on a 25 mile ride.. no sissy bar, half helmet..no shield.. eyes tearing , drool hitting the wife behind me... sun in my eyes at sunset.... She was holding tight "scared of sliding off" and i couldn't  see that good... But it was FUN...
