Joining another sandbox

Post by Bikenagain »

New member from Australia just joined this sandbox, I am a member of several other FJR sand boxes and want to get all the info I can find.
I purchased my 2006 FJR in December last year and am lovin it. I have come from a GTR1000 (Connie) so are use to a weighty tourer but boy is the FJR a lot more of a beast. I have been riding for only 40 odd ( I mean odd) years, a lot of it 2up with my lovely minister of personal finance all over this great land down here and hope to enjoy it awhile longer now on the FJR. I only post when I have something appropriate to say but I get on the various sand boxes every day and read a lot and enjoy the banter and info.

I was gonna say something like G'day Mate, but that's kinda cliche, So how about " What does kangaroo taste like?"

Welcome to the board.

We know another Aussie. He goes by the name Festar. But that is part of the witness protection program.

I often have found myself when I was not looking, nor did that discovery take place where I thought it would!

Welcome aboard!

I believe Festar may be in witless protection but that's a whole different thread.

I wonder if Kangaroo taste like chicken? Bet with some Cajun seasoning and a little Roux, I could make it pretty good.
