JAFRR - A Nice Day In The Desert

Post by SkooterG »

Woo-hoo! I finally finished one of the plethora of FJR projects floating around my garage. Took this FJR out for a nice ride today. The first time it has been on the road in 8 months.

Utimate destination: One of my favorites, Rock Springs Cafe.

For my reward for a project complete. The Jack Daniels Pecan Pie is absolutely to die for here!

Oh sure, you never treat me to those fun places. I see the way you are. Bastard! :stickpoke:

Don’t let this fool you Jeff! Skoot is a master panel swapping magician! Somewhere out there is a ‘13 with the wrong panels on it!! (And the guy put it up for sale as soon as he bought it!) LOL!
