    Welcome to the group. I think we have enough F6B owners to have a mini NJ rally.

    Frank, you need to be thinking bigger than just the Garden State. Maybe a Tri-State gathering, or the Northeast gathering.

    If you organize it....they will come (Field of Dreams)

    Miles, I don't have the experience to organize a large rally. Would need a sponsor or a place who is willing to host it. Any suggestions? A NJ rally would be easy. Meet at a public spot that has food, kick tires and tell lies about our riding experiences.

    Frank, get in touch with all the forum members that live within the Garden State, or within 250 miles of you, and ask them if they are willing to assist in putting this together. It does NOT have to be a riding event. It could be just a get together for a barbeque (although it is hard to imagine that anyone in North America would eat what would be called "barbeque" up in New Jersey. That is like eating Salsa that was made in...New York City

    If you can get 10 riders to show up, then next year get 20...and so on, and so forth, it can build. There does NOT need to be a sponsor, or someone to "pay the bills". Each rider can be responsible for their own tab. Just find a nice comfortable location, out of the hustle and bustle of the big cities, away from the populace (which is hard to do in New Jersey)... (given that they have more people per square mile than any other state in the USA).

    A good eatery up in the hills, something like that, so that the prime objective to this gathering is to attract other F6B riders to get to see one anothers' faces , and talk about the bikes, plan rides together, talk about going to the F6B Rally in Franklin, NC. , meeting people like Horn Blower, Deer Slayer, and Steve0080 at the "big" rally, etc, etc, etc.

    Sometimes the smaller, more intimate gatherings are more enjoyable than the events that attract 500,000 people.

    Give it some time, think about it, talk to others in the Northeast, and see what you can put together.

    cobras

    Thanks for the welcome! Looking forward to seeing some of you on the road. Any feedback on the Cobras? I thought about having dealer replace them with stock. I am not into "Loud" but do enjoy a good sound

Happy to be part of this forum, I learned a bunch from all of you while researching. May want to sell the Cobras.
    Welcome,

    We got another storm overnight in NE Ohio. Really tired of the weather and ready to ride.
    Anytime you want to come over to Ohio or close to here to ride let us know.
