My wife has a 2003 BMW F650 GS -- great bike. I bought her some soft bags few months ago that are made specifically for her bike -- plenty of storage. I'm leaving for an Austin, TX to Arkansas ride on Oct 12th on my 2005 FJR and wondered if her bags would fit on my FJR -- they do perfectly...

Different states have different regulations regarding the use of OEM parts vs. non-OEM. I'm not sure what reg's are in the state of New York. Suggestion: call your insurance agent and he / she can advise you -- they will know the New York regulations regarding this issue. You can also...

The FZ1 mirrors are a tremendous improvement over the stocks. I bought mine from Gary McCoy at University Motors in Fargo, ND also. He has best price by far. You have to be able to see directly behind you to be safe -- the stocks don't allow it for a normal size rider. Get em -- you'll ride...

Some dealers will order extra FJR's that have not been pre-purchased by individual customers. I bought a NEW 05 ABS FJR in November 2006. The dealer had purchased extra FJR's from Yamaha knowing they would sell them to "non-reserving" customers during the model year. The dealer I purchased my...

The dealer is supposed to figure the pro-rata unearned portion of the warranty cost and return it to you in event of cancellation. The start date is the date of purcase of the warranty. If you bought a 5 year warranty exactly one year ago, then you should receive 80% of the cost of the...

Back in November 2005, I traded a 2004 VStar in for a 2005 FJR ABS (purchased the FJR from a dealer in Austin, TX). The next day, I sent the YES Warranty I had purchased for the VStar back to the Yamaha dealer in New Braunfels, TX (where I purchased the VStar) asking them to cancel effective...

Another 05 ABS checking in from Austin. Ice Man

Take it from someone who was there in June. One day willl be cool (highs in the 50's) and the next day ideal ( highs in the 70's). The weather in the mountians is unpredictable -- prepare for the extremes AND prepare for rain. The BRP is one of America's treasures -- enjoy it!!! FYI -- the...

My wife and I rode the BRP late May / early June last year. One day was chilly, the next was perfect. Before going, our research told us that the weather is very unpredictable and that proved to be correct. Rain is always a possibility. We rented a neat little cabin in Linville, NC. Hope...

My wife and I just rented bikes in Las Vegas in November. Check out following site: https://eaglerider.carrentalexpress.com/veh...3579d5b9b858354 Their site indicates they rent more than just Harley's. We rented Harley's - which we both agree do not measure up to our Japanese bikes. But...

There are reallly good deals on a used Suzuki Savage (650 cc single cylinder). It weighs around 350 lbs and is easy to ride -- sits low -- has very adequate get up and go. I enjoy riding it occasionally.

Like FJRSanDiego, I just received FZ1 Mirrors from Gary McCoy at University Motors, Inc. in sunny Fargo, ND. $90 delivered to my door. This is the best price I could find -- by far. Ice Man / Austin, TX

I have 2005 FJR. I agree mirrors are deficient. If the FZ1 Mirrors are a good fix, what year FZ1 Mirrors will work with a 2005 FJR??? Ice Man / Austin, TX Where We Ride All Year Long

Check out www.motorsporttrailers.com Could not be happier with mine -- trailered our bikes from Texas to North Carolina last summer -- the trailer was great. Loading & unloading is a breeze. Great service & follow-up from the owner.
