    Painting Bike - Color Opinons

    I almost went with 'House of Kolor' Kandy lime green I think it was, but the test panels we painted just didn't look that good. It was really really yellow. I have both the cruise and hg's on mine, if yours is an abs model, I can tell you how to fit the servo under the seat using the parts...

    Painting Bike - Color Opinons

    Well, I probably won't be subscribing to a picture hosting service. If you really want to see pics in white, luckydog, then pm me an email address and I'll send you some. I will say this, there are a lot of pieces to paint on this bike. You don't quite realize how many until you break it down...

    My 05 is golden pearl white, but someone would have to tell my how to upload a pic.

    Who Commutes on the FJR Daily?

    300 miles a week minimum. In the last year, I have only driven to work once. I have ridden the fjr in temp ranges of 24F to 104F, the fz1 from 27F to 109F. I'm totally bummed if I have to drive. I do have heated grips on the fudger, somewhat necessary for the < 40 temps.

    ZX-14

    Something must really be wrong with your fjr..... that is really piss poor mileage. I run mine hard and get an absolute minimum of 44.

    Did your dealer do a TBS at 600 mi?

    Actually, the fjr is easier to sync than carbs. You will want to follow as per Yammi's instructs: Set the throttle bodies 1,2 & 4 to number 3. If you don't do it this way, you might run out of adjustment when trying to set #3 to the others. Ya wanna guess how I know this? I would also...

    '06 - Bike heat report in 106F, 25% humidity

    I run through Fate on a regular basis, I'm near Nevada. I've been riding my 05 at least 60mi a day in these wonderful temps. Last year it cooked me, this year, it's not that bad. I should have the fz1 back on the road for next week, but the fjr's cooling system handles these temps better. My...

    Technical Bulletin on 17mpg Issue

    I had to have my cluster replaced on my 05 due to the tach face bubbling up at 7K miles. After another 8K, it's doing it again. Am I the only one? Anyway, no sticker, no new title. Dealer said that mama yama would know! All else are on their own. Metric: I thought that too when I replaced the...

    Anyone from this forum?

    Mine sets in a parking garage off of 75 in Richyland during the day, but I'm sure that you saw the other one. I see him from time to time.
