this is from our good friends at BikeNutz.com:

Good eye for sure. And some great stories on JB2's site as well.

Looks almost like it was drawn with colored pencils. Cool pic!

Dunno if I could park my XB there though...probably light the dead grass on fire with the exhaust and burn down a perfectly good abandoned farm house!

JB2, if FMJ is only now starting to wonder about me, i think i'm doing ok.

i've been wondering about him for almost a decade now.

Hey Jerry-
That bike looks familiar! I think I'll use it for my wallpaper for awhile.
Thanks,

Iamike -- JB2's ST1300 looks nice enough, but the POS (the bike, not JB2) has been in the shop more than on the road, and he actually has to haul it to photo shoots in his truck and then PUSH it into location!

that's what he gets for not riding a Buell or a Harley, i guess...

EDIT: dammit, i keep forgetting the " : ) " !!!

at least Darell's bike RUNS!

FB1, Are you callin' me out? : ) I'm fat with a Bloomin' Onion and a Rockhampton Ribeye all kicked back to enjoy a Friday night at home bachelor style and you're callin' me out? I'll have you know that bike-o-mine putts just fine. I'll be ridin' mine long after they've recycled yours into a golf cart. ;)

What type of problems has JB2 been having? Most of the issues that I've read on an ST board deals with coolant leaks. Second has most to do with how hot the bike is to ride due to the fairing and engine heat hitting the rider.
I'd never sweat so much on a ride as I did in Arkansas last summer. I missed the cooling of th naked bike.

Mike, don't tread near the edge of the abyss with Ferris. The only problem I've had with my ST is Ferris. : )

Only way you will keep Bad Billy in them mirrors is if'n you turn em forward.And I remember how far my Fatboy would lean before scrapin' bits(not too far)so unless you are planning on cornering via pogosticking the running boards I ain't skeered!!

Yes, I can confirm the coolant leak. I, driving back to the hotel late one night in Wendover, saw JB2 with my own eyes, hidden around the corner of a Kiwk-Shop and he appeared to be leaking coolant.

Mike, yes I do believe Ferris is jealous. The Honda shop would not trade his FJR in on an ST. He went to the HD shop and the rest is history. He secretly still loves the ST. Hell, the ST is so cool that Ferris's brother flew to Indiana to see mine when I first got it last spring. Ask him if Doug has been to Cali to see the RK. ;)

Yes but that coolant was coming from me, not the Honda. Those tacos at the Bonneville Cafe' really are "hotter than hell".

it's a "can't lose" deal for me, boys. if i smoke you guys on my chrome-plated toilet (as JB2 calls it), i've got permanent cackling rights.

and if you guys smoke ME, well, i can blame it on the bike.

i win! : )

...and he appeared to be leaking coolant.

hmmm, that may explain why the little bastich overheats so easy! ;)

...the ST is so cool that Ferris's brother flew to Indiana to see mine when I first got it last spring.
yeah, well, Doug's a life-long master mechanic, and as i hear it he was trying to help you figure out how to get it running!!!

Yes, but I would argue equally that the ST is a "red painted" toilet. There is only one TRUE motorcycle. Everything before it was research and everything since that ain't is a poor copy! ;)

Yes I have to agree with Court on this one,
JB especially in his coffee drinking days has been known to leak coolant

I only know two slightly older gents who sport dirty gray Aerostitches and that person doesn't appear to be Andy Goldfine. Looks like the work of a west coast poser(pisser) and an east coast photog. This photo proves again the BadWeB conspiracy is a bi-coastal effort.

Yeah,pretty much a win-win situation for ole Ferris--if you smoke him--well it was "just" a Harley,and if he smokes you you gotta live with the ignominy of being smoked by a Harley.
Reminds me of when my son was wrestling and came up against the girls,if you beat em,well whoopee,ya beat a girl,and if one beat you might as well hang it up right then.
