I installed Helirisers on my 05 back in 07 and it made quite a difference. They are offset but on the second day of a long ride I still get the bee sting between the shoulder blades. Went to a Russel seat and that made a big difference in comfort since the 05 seat is a beast to ride.

I have a friend who has purchased an 08 fjr and needs more pull back and height to feel comfortable----- I have the heli risers on my 05 but he would like to find something with even more rearward bar location. Any suggestions out there ????

Does anybody know if a group from the FORUM is anticipating buying some Russell seats this winter???? I am looking for the group discount that they offer but I don't want to buy 20 seats on my own to qualify. Stu

Yeah-- I had the same problem living north of the border so I took a pair of my old avons and drilled them every three inches with a one sixteenth bit . Place a stopper on the bit so that its doesn't penetrated the tire carcass. Screw in three quarter inch stainless round head phillips screws ...

I found that with the oem , the box pushed the passenger too far forward on the rear seat and with the back rest it was an unrideable position. She is not a big woman being only 120 lbs. We went to the Givi top box. Perfect color match and only about 350 bucks, plus the mounting hardware. I...

I wouldn't deal with Sargent again. Ordered the seat with the back rest--- we could't stay on the seat for more than 30 minutes and had to turn around. Called Sargent to let them know and suggested I send it back------ they wouldn't accept it. I suppose the time element had lapsed by the...

Don't buy a Sargent unless you have hamstrings and a butt with built in gel pads.

Forget the Chatterbox, J M etc and save your bucks. My wife and I have been using the Riderlink ST-1 from Motocom. We have used the previous product from Motocom also for a few years. It provides hardwire rider to Pass communication, great helmet speakers, two sets of microphones ( for full...

<_< What is the room situation now regarding vacancy for the week end. Would like to make the trip from East of Toronto but don't want to do the registration thing if I have to ride from my room in Chicago each morning. Suppose I could raft six air matresses up in the pool and pitch a...

Just thought that I would post the results of my installation of Helibar risers on my 05 FJ--NO MORE NUMB THROTTLE HAND!! Vibration?? -- not the cause. Stiff Throttle Springs?? only if you have the hands of my great grandmother should it be a problem. Get the weight up off your hand with...

Yeah the bike sounds o.k. as long as you don't install a Sargent seat. If you do that , you won't have to worry about the hot grips, windshield etc since your butt will not permit you to sit on the damn thing long enough for the rest of the equipment to make a difference. Enjoy---
