    Most HATED Farkle or Accessory

    Throttlemeister: The only time it I used it was to hold the throttle open while I installed the Audiovox cruise. They do serve as a decent bar end weight. Dyna-beads (are these a farkle?): As long as you don't exceed 70 mph, you're ok. What a waste of a day that was.

    Well, at least I expanded my vocabulary with this thread. :)

    Avon Storm 3D X-M

    I also have a head shake with these tires at about 45mph on deceleration. It's really only exceptional with no hands on the bars.

    Avon 3D X-M

    Couple of 100 km's. The good thing is that I have them balanced, smooth as glass up to unmentionable speeds. 20 grams on the front and 104 grams on the rear, which I think is a little excessive. I'm coming off a set of PR 3's and, although new tires always feel awesome, I can't say that these...

    Avon 3D X-M

    I mounted a set up last weekend. Have no miles on them but my initial impression is that the rear took too much weight to balance. I believe it was 3 3/4 ounces.

    2007 FJR Service Manual

    I agree. The forum has been an incredible help to me. I have also used a few pages out of my $90 manual. Is just doesn't seem very environmentally friendly to print all that paper for the few pages I needed. Eventually it will change.

    Sochi

    Well, FWIW, the Americans were the real competition. Their hearts weren't in the Bronze medal game at all. They came to win gold and nearly could have. Now, woman's hockey is another story. I think I may have actually had a little tear in my eye for the Americans. I just didn't like the way...

    Gen2/3 Subframe Stiffy Kit by Garauld

    Installed Gary's kit last weekend and it fits very well. I can feel the increase in rigidity just by pushing down on the rear rack while the bike sits on the Center stand. My plan is to install a 4 gallon fuel cell back there for this season and hopefully, the kit will prevent a cracked sub...

    Bulkhead fitting for aux tank through fuel pump?

    FWIW, I had no luck getting the Sampson website, are they done? I used this fitting: https://www.aircraftspruce.ca/catalog/eppages/tankaccfitt.php?clickkey=212411 I replaced the o-rings that came with it with some tighter fitting ones I had on hand. So far so good. I also used this same...

    cruise control

    + some more on the CCS100. With research on this forum, you can get it installed correctly. Mine works flawlessly, don't know how I survived without it.
