Hello.......Bob Cummings hooked me up here. I'm on the FB-FJR site ran by Bram Frank. Came over here..as there seemed to be 'in-depth' AE information. I've been riding since 1974. 300,000+ miles. DEA Narcotics Dir. Ret.) & a Range/Firearms Owner for 23+ years. Own a '08 AE. since 2019. Prior bike was a Honda ST1300, in which I put 95K on it. Looking forward to checking out this site. Thank you for the Add.

Bob, I like your new name.:D

Welcome to the board Douglas.

Don’t be confused by my name liking every post...it’s just a little tease on me by the principals of this board.

Douglas, I believe you have to have at least 5 or 6 posts before the board opens up for you to do that. There is an explanation in the “help and suggestions “ section of the board. Good luck!

It’s legal here..we can either get it delivered by mail or by courier, or we can just walk to our favorite pot shop. I havent used anything in well over 20 years..
