Hey to all. I'm glad I found this site. I'm Leon Roddy from beautiful downtown Grand Prairie,TX. We're between Dallas & Fort Worth. Just took delivery on an 11 FJR 1300 on 12/15/11 trade a Harley FLHX and I couldn't be happier. Look forward to learning a lot on this site and hopefully making some new friends.

Howdy there Leon. Major Kudos on your motorcycle up grade. We would love to hear your first hand impressions from the Harley to your new FJR.
I'm sure you're aware that this forum focuses on the older ('84-'93) air cooled FJ1100 and FJ1200 bikes, the granddaddy to your newer FJR,  although several of our forum members also have FJR's in their stable.

Welcome Leon, hope you sit a spell.

BTW, not to chase you away but,  there is a forum which specializes in the FJR you may want to check out: http://www.fjrowners.com/phpbb2/portal.php
