    FJR Computer swap for Seq EFI?

    Sure, ionbeam, that answers also answers the question asked. Those who answered above are strangers and as you and others made clear in my introduction people here like to mess with each other a bit. So you are strangers who admit you'd be messing with me and you don't understand that I would be...

    FJR Computer swap for Seq EFI?

    You could understand my confusion as you did not state the 250 was equally split between the two of you (you may have been closing in on your finish line. Closing could very well mean closing in on the end of the race. "This is the speed of an object relative to another object..." But not the...

    FJR Computer swap for Seq EFI?

    The FJR does not have enough horsepower for 250+ mph.

    FJR Computer swap for Seq EFI?

    If I recall correctly the Power Commander does not allow for an O2 sensor. The two I listed have lambda sensor inputs and use them to ensure you don't run rich or lean. Lean would be very dangerous... There's nothing like detonating a spark plug and shredding the engine with the ceramic which...

    Anyone buying an iPad 2?

    Zip - Intellect had little to do with things. I'd say it was a bit more like this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mD0bMHK7ym0 Until JMDaniel said "Hey you kids! I swear to gad I'll turn this darn post around!" Zip + Monkeyman in unison: "Sorry Mr. Daniel (and under the breath "JM means jerk...

    Glove recommendtion

    I should have said in my previous response - My summer gloves are red Icon Pursuit. My gloves and helmet are bright red... there may be a medication for this though... Pursuit has deep rubber protection in the knuckles and thick, perforated leather. David

    Anyone buying an iPad 2?

    Everything I've typed here was using the physical keyboad of the N900 but if you must have an on screen keyboad it of course includes one. If the keys on the device are too small you can use a blutooth laser keyboard and type on any surface or use a physical USB keyboard. No USB support on the...

    Anyone buying an iPad 2?

    Ian Stephens - Here's some positive emphasis from Steve Jobs himself as he announces that a major difference between iOS4 and all previous iOS devices will be in depth support for in app ads and device wide ads. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q7WVt63S49s The ability to advertise is...

    FJR Computer swap for Seq EFI?

    Does anyone know of a company which makes a replacement computer for the FJR (2005) to convert the fuel injection to sequential fuel injection? I'd like to get 45mpg from this thing! I get 35mpg from my car, I rather my motorcycle hit a higher mark. For example...

    Tank Panniers Under the Seat

    Not bad MotoStrap. You could also mount the bags by the tank this way (put the straps under the tank). That would make them a little tougher to get them on and off the tank but it would put them where you had intended. Heck you could do both the tank and the seat! David

    Glove recommendtion

    Many of the racing type gloves are loaded with leather and plastic but not much rubber. Rubber or foam will reduce the impact a fall has on your bones, ligaments and tissues. Plastic and leather will only prevent road rash and both together will do an excellent job which is great, but not if...

    Frontend feels light

    03HiYoSilver hit on what I would suggest. Make sure you've set your pre-load correctly in the front and rear. You will need to set it differently when you have the case on the bike and loaded than you will without the case. Here is a site which provides a video with an in depth description of...

    Ulytra Little Batteries

    Because they are so small and the FJR battery box is so large you could use two of them in parallel (both battery + to bike +, both battery - to bike -) to provide you the additional reserve power. Buy some car stero 8 gauge power wire (can be had in many colors such as red and black) and...

    Anyone buying an iPad 2?

    "My wife bought me a $1K gift card at the Apple store last October, and I've been holding out, waiting for the next gen. That was announced today, and I am a bit non-impressed. The screen is the same resolution, the rumored SD slot isn't there... and there are rumblings that iPad3 will be out in...

    Front fork suspension settings

    There are two Ohlins units for the FJR rear. One (YA456 - also called the S46DR1) does not have adjustable compression dampning, only a general Dampning setting which I think changes both the compression and the rebound -Instructions here...

    Pirelli Angel St

    Andyfjr - What are you doing with your body as you turn? Try hanging off the bike a little in the side which you're turning (you won't need to push the bars as far to that side). Press the non-turning side knee and thigh into the lower side of the tank, point your other knee toward the indside...

    Anyone buying an iPad 2?

    Right you are Zip. The N900 has a Playstation emulator, a Nintendo emumlator, a Gameboy emulator, a Sega emulator... on and on. With these I do not need to buy any of the devices, just the games (or download them in violation of the law - I've not done this) and can play them on my device. It...

    Another Year And I Did Not Forget!

    It's OK if you don't know where your keys are. It's not OK if you don't know what your keys do! Happy Birthday, Susie! I know, I know. I haven't introduced myself to SoozeBG-MrsBikerGeek or BikerGeek99, but I heard there was cake so I wandered in here... David
