The 2006 - 2007 throttle finickiness was a combination of the throttle cam and ECU fuel mapping. The throttle cam profile made the low...

Yeah, back in my younger days with my '04 FJR there were a lot of top speed runs. Top speed for my '04 was anywhere between 151 mph and...

Interesting. The Gen 1 chart seems a bit optimistic compared to what I recall. IIRC, top speed of Pandora in 5th gear at redline was...

I guess everything is relative. The FJR is lighter than most of the other bikes I've owned. And while riding it doesn't feel heavy to...

Btw, I only dabbled in speed shifting until about 12 years ago when I took the Lee Parks Advanced Riding Clinic Level 2. There they go...

Looks like something new to learn to be as cool as Skooter.
