I too found the MAX plus work too well to hear my Sena. My solution was to use the traditional EAR yellow foam barrel ear plugs because their NRR is less, but still cut out the wind roar that has already damaged my hearing during a lifetime of almost daily riding.

I have a Cee Bailey +4 +4 with flip that you're welcome to try. It's probably close to the height of the Vstream, but the flip does add effective height. I run a +2 height with flip CB in the summer and love it over the stock shield that I never use (and have actually cut down for really hot...

The link you posted is for FOAM grip covers, not neoprene. I've been running similar foam covers since I got my FJR and really love them for the larger diameter and vibration reduction. I could not find any to fit my wife's really small diameter grips on her NC700XD, so got the neoprene Grip...

I have a Honda DCT in my garage and it works great. The wife had left ankle surgery and then got the Honda NC700XD. No shift lever and no clutch lever makes it easy on her. I ride it occasionally because she's more of a fair weather rider than me and I hate to see a motorcycle sit unused. I...

IN ! Thanks for hosting again.

Neil San Diego had a S7 failure on his 2012, as reported here: https://www.fjrforum.com/forum//index.php/topic/139511-fjrf0093-spider-failures-other-than-s4-research/?p=1358440

Thanks for the report. The S7 is a more rare failure (but one I'm intimately aware of) and you have a 2012 that has the spider "fix" factory installed. Consider yourself part of a "special" group. :)

Thanks for the report! Please let us know what you find. I'm thinking that we will see more spider bites on "unaffected" FJR's as the miles/time pile up on these newer bikes.

Slightly off topic, but Google will let you search 3 letter words. Put your search terms in Google and then add "site:fjrforum.com" without the quotation marks so that it only looks at this forum.

I'd recommend the Italian place I'm having Valentines dinner with the spouse ( https://www.pescevi.com/ ), but it's a long drive from your place. :)

So has anyone with a 2016 actually taken their FJR for a ride at night? I'm curious on the effectiveness of those CORNERING LED LIGHTS because that's actually an important reason I'd consider upgrading for. I ride a lot at night on curvy roads and it's such a pain when traffic approaches and I...

The throttle spring unwind really helps with fatigue. I did it on my 07 when new and have had no regrets for the last 118,000 miles. I should warn you that the throttle return will be lazy when your rolling down the road, so don't expect the throttle to snap shut if you release the grip...

That is a great location for the lock and powerlet outlet. I got that plate from Townsend for my 07 and have plugging in my liner there for well over 100,000 miles (including this morning at 28 degrees). The only downfall has been that it's a little difficult to plug in while rolling down the...

One update for item #26: Florida is no longer the only state that prohibits you from buying the YES warranty from an out of state vendor. According to D&H, Washington state has been added to this illustrious list so they won't sell you YES if it's being mailed to WA. BTW, I've been told that...

I'm one of those crazy riders that's out every day except for snow or ice. Yesterday we had some freezing rain overnight, so I wisely decided to take the truck when I stepped out onto the driveway that felt like a skating rink. To confirm that this was a wise choice, I was creeping down the...

Let me suggest never taking those knobs off. I've had my 07 apart many, many times and never removed either knob. The trick is to simply unscrew the knurled nut that holds the speedometer cable to the back of the adjust mechanism and then pull that panel off with knob and adjuster fully...

Nice photo! Looks like he has burlap bags tied around the factory panniers. But I'm pretty sure you didn't actually want to know where to get soft luggage. ;) Merry Christmas everyone. :)

Ditto on getting the battery tested first. My battery is fine, but I was also having slow start problems on a warmed up bike after stopping for fuel or stalling the engine. I finally got around to borrowing a DC clamp on ammeter to test my starter on my 07 FJR with 117,000 miles on it. The...

My name isn't Doug, but I do ride in the worst weather possible except snow on the ground. And coincidentally, there was that crap all over my driveway and VERY steep private road that doesn't get plowed this morning. So for the first time in a few years I had to take the gas guzzling, no car...

Time to drag this old post into today. I'm getting ready to rebuild a starter and will want to replace this seal. I've found a few rebuild threads and all have looked for the seal, but no one has posted up a number to get one somewhere. Has no one found a suitable seal? Please post up if you...
