To those considering a Russell, or any custom seat. A neat way to work out the pain in the --- of sending in your seat so the seat builder has a seat pan, keep an eye on eBay and other sites, to buy a spare seat, or seats. Send in the worst of the two you now own, and no sweat about the time the...

I too just recieved my new Russell seat, about one month ago. I also thought the reach to ground was longer, and more awkward. The seat is slippery. When ordering my seat, I requested that it not raise my position, and that I would actually like to set back a half or one inch more than in the...

My only remaining complaint with my 2004 FJR is the lack of exhaust note. I wasn't looking for the track day bike wail, or the H-D "look at me" noise, just an aural confirmation that the motor is doing it's thing. I love motors, and like to hear them . I have no need of enhanced performance...

Your question is a valid one, but difficult for some other person to answer for you. I will tell you that I am an aging motorcyclist, much more arthritic and grouchy than in my younger days. I vary from feeling like I'm still 18, and a road warrior, to I want something comfortable. The FJR is...

I can't rate all the shields available, I have only tried the stock '04 and the tall Cal Sci. I love the Cal Sci. I did modify the raising arms to tilt the shield back at a greater angle.

Well, my question in the first place tells that I had reservations about spending over $200 to improve the sound. It is a dilema, this FJR is without question the best running, most fun motorcycle I have ever owned. It also is the only one that I can hear the tire noise and cam chain whir over...

Just wondering if anyone has experience with these. They are a new tip with a larger diameter tube. The kit includes a 38mm hole saw to remove the existing end of the stock pipe. You can see the kit at www.bikejohhny.com, it would be about $225 shipped from Britain. My FJR runs so well that I...

I'm 55, my lower back is a mess. I have had neck surgery to repair/fuse vertabrae that were shattered in dirt bike adventures. I am at most comfort on my FJR. Get your bars raised to where you like them, the seat to where your ass doesn't cry too much, and the road will attend to your soul.

It varies day to day, but it is usually between 40% and 60% of humanity that need desperately to be marched off a cliff into the f***ing ocean (my condolences to the fish) and gotten out of the way of good folks!
