Has anyone used this bag? Aerostich link

The last time the one in the background was near a Yamaha production line it was dropping heavy objects that seriously disrupted distribution of all products...

Does anyone know what the trade number is on the turn signal flasher? I am considering replacing all four bulbs with LEDs which would also mean replacing the flasher unit. https://www.superbrightleds.com/cgi-bin/store/index.cgi?action=DispPage&Page2Disp=%2Ftail-brake-turn.html%23a7440

I bought my bike a few weeks too late. Do you get together again before the fall?

I've just finished importing a 2008 FJR from Florence Oregon. The Registrar of Imported Vehicles - aka RIV - required two modifications to officially switch the bike from US to Canadian citizenship. The concealed carry holster in the fairing had to be swapped out to make room for a public...

I purchased a 2008 FJR from a private owner in Florence Oregon earlier this week. I imported it to Canada on Thursday, and finally got all the paperwork that the bureaucrats demand in place. Dealing with US Customs was quite easy - the various Canadian agencies weren't quite as organized. But...

Hey guys, I am about to order the Piaa two tone horns - just wondering if there were any updates since the last posting. The local dealer insists, and there's an intuitive logic to what he's saying, that new horns cannot be louder unless there's a relay to supply additional power. Any problems...

Hey, I am headed to Portland Oregon tomorrow to pick up a 2008 FJR from a private seller. While down there, I thought I should take advantage of Oregon's no sales tax status and pick up a couple of items. Can anyone recommend a dealer with a good range of accessories? I'm thinking of smaller...

I think the culprit is the distributor, not the dealers. The distributors are still pricing the bikes as if the Canadian dollar was 25% below the US instead of 5% above. I did email a Kawasaki dealer on Vancouver Island who had a 2009 Concours advertised. I asked what his best out the door...

This friend just called to say the dealer had obtained some 2009 ABS Concours from a dealer that had closed its doors. They're looking for $14,900 which is probably a good price on the Canadian market (something about metric dollars or somefink). That's more money than I want to spend on any...

Actually no, I haven't. I'd have to sign up for the Concours forum yadda-yadda-yadda and the truth is my mind is largely made up already. I don't think I could be persuaded to buy the Concours at this point. A friend works at a local Kawasaki dealer - he tells me the mechanics all groan when a...

I am shooting for the 7 - 9000USD range and a 2008-9 model year. That will get me a new 2008 AE model in Michigan. The comment about a short Canadian riding season is true of every province but BC. Yet, strangely enough, the average mileage on used US bikes seems much lower than the Canadian...

I did search to see if this topic was already covered, and didn't find any titles that looked relevant. I'm thinking of purchasing a US bike and exporting it to the Great White North. I've read up on what that involves already. What are differences between US and Canadian FJRs? Obviously the...

Thanks for the feedback everyone - well almost everyone, you know who you are... I spoke to a friend at a Kawasaki dealer. He also believes the labour (that's not a typo, everyone but y'all US citizens has a u in labour and honour and...) costs for repairs are higher for the Concours. He...

Actually I'll tweak your nose and say your post wasn't particularly "useful." :P There are only two postings on that forum made in 2011!

Hi, I have been eyeballing the many advertisements for new 2008/9 FJRs on line. There are even more advertisements for Concours - with ABS - from the same model years. The Concours are often a few hundred dollars less and come with a standard 3 year warranty. I'm sure many FJR owners also...
