Recently broke a front wheel and need to replace it. I have done a search for a used one with no luck. I remember seeing a post that had a place to purchase a new wheel for an 06 at around 225.00$, I tried a search for that also and couldn't find it. If someone has a place to get a decent...

  I will take your advice and bump up to the 42/42 setting and give it a run on a set. tks

Recently installed the 06 Gen Mar risers, it took about an hour to do. It has eased my wrist pain on extended rides and I don't think I gave up any handling abilities. I would have to give these a thumbs up. You have to remove the triple clamp and remove the wire bracket that holds the cables...

I have seen several threads dealing with tires and pressure settings. Here's my 2 cents. I have about 4K on the set of factory Bridgestone Battle ax on my 06. The front is shot from cupping and the rear is still good with maybe 2K left in them. I live in the Northwest and run my tires at...

Look at all that tread on the sides of the tires, all you need are more twisties on those road trips. :clapping:

Currently running the 120/70 ZR 17 Battle Ax. My question is - has anyone put a taller series tire on an FJR and how did it work out for them? I also plan on changing the rear tire at the same time, so do I make a similar change on the rear also? Thanks, Doug

The input on this site amazes me at times. My decision is to take the wheel to a reputable wheel straightener in Portland area that was recommended by one of the guys I work with. A few of you may know him, he races out at Portland International Speedway and his name is Shawn Roberti. He...

I recently bent the front rim on my 06. The dent is on one side of the rim and about an 1/2" indentation. The tire bead stayed on and I was able to make it home ok. Question is this - After bending a wheel should you replace with a new one or have the old wheel re-trued. A new wheel runs...

Besides having my FJR I also have 3 scooters or mopeds, whatever you want to call them. When riding the scooter I truly revel in getting a Harley dude to wave, then have him quickly pull his hand back when he realizes that it a moped. I just laugh. I call the majority of Harley riders the...

FYI If any one is wanting to ride on the road from Estacada Or. to Detroit Lake Don't the road is covered with a lot of debris, anything from full on logs across the road (blocking a full lane) to softball size rocks strewn the total width of the road surface. The road itself has huge pot...

Thanks Texas, I really have liked the last two Corbin seats that I had. One was an older Washington State Highway Patrol saddle that fit my butt perfect. I tried like hell to make it fit on one of my newer bikes but couldnt quite make it. Signed - Bidding for a good fit. KTRSD

A ride sounds great. Lets get some decent weather If Sunday turns into some sunshine I'm up for a ride My Phone is 503-263-8875

I was at that show on Saturday and run into a guy at about that time frame. A guy about 6' 5" that was well informed on FJRs. It was a conversation with him that led to my purchasing my 06. Would like to find out who he was but the odds of that happening are slim. I'm 6'3" and was a little...
