    Thanks Dave, money sent for Gen III 2013 FJR with stock mirrors (you should see two paypal transactions, $51 and $5).

    WynPro Anti-Vibe Light Brackets

    Hi Dave, Maybe I misunderstood as you'd previously asked "If you have stock mirrors I may need to make some more spacers.". Let me know price, and if ordering instructions are same as earlier in the thread? Thanks.

    WynPro Anti-Vibe Light Brackets

    My mirrors are stock. I have FJR factory hand guards (https://www.shopyamaha.com/product/details/fjr1300-hand-guards) yet to fit. Not sure if they would be incompatible with the plates and risers. if not, not a problem as I do want the plates.

    Dave, I'm definitely interested in a set of the plates. Still available? Mine is a 2013 Gen III.

    For sale: Yamaha SECA 900

    I'm thinking about selling my 1983 Yamaha SECA 900 4-cyl. I'm located near Seattle. I'm the second owner. First owner cherished and babied the bike for its first 30yrs. Just turned 50,000 miles. I've put around 6000miles on it since purchase.. Fairly new tires, Battlax-BT45V Full Pickler...

    Does vib at 2500 and 3500 signal a problem on a 2013?

    At the risk of repeating my earlier summary I just want to be clear I'm NOT talking abouit the handlebar buzz at higher RPM's (that my bike also has). I assume that's 'normal' and can put up with it. My bike has a distinctly noticeable VIBRATION (not buzz) at the 2500 and 3500rpm rev points, in...

    Does WA ban helmet cameras?

    Yes, thanks, exactly what I was looking for. From my interpretation seems Bluetooth communicators/hands-free devices remain a gray area. I have a Scala G9 which protrudes a lot more than 5mm. If it came to it, hopefully a reasonable conversation with an officer would result in a warning...

    Battery Access 2013/Gen III

    +1 on modifying the older OEM battery panel. Took me around 10mins with a vibrating saw to remove the problem sections. Panel now removes and fits quickly without the need for the center cowl to come out. Factory look is retained. No wind flapping or other noise. I considered drilling a 1/4"...

    Does WA ban helmet cameras?

    SENATE BILL 5143 is related. But I can't find anything to support that offficer's claim.

    Does WA ban helmet cameras?

    I came across this video: http :// www . youtube . com / watch?v=5o5b6255xhs (copy/paste and remove the spaces to launch the URL) WA Tukwila county cop claiming it's a violation to have a helmet camera, or anything else mounted on helmet exterior. (he may be right on the safety issue but in...

    Does vib at 2500 and 3500 signal a problem on a 2013?

    Let me summarize here, I feel the vibe at those rev points while at rest in neutral or in gear clutch-in while slowly free revving the bike from idle to 4000rpm, and in motion at light or heavier loads at steady road speeds, and when the engine is accelerating lightly or hard through those rev...

    Does vib at 2500 and 3500 signal a problem on a 2013?

    Thanks, I still have the original OEM tires at 5500miles. I'm hearing the noise clearly *with* my helmet on (Shark modular) and NoNoise hearing protectors fitted.

    Does vib at 2500 and 3500 signal a problem on a 2013?

    The other thing I notice about my FJR is the 'howling' sound I get at 40mph and up from somewhere around the front end. You'll all be thinking "that guy and his vibes and sounds!, get better ear plugs why don't you", but seriously, there is what sounds like a mechanically based, very noticeable...

    Does vib at 2500 and 3500 signal a problem on a 2013?

    Thanks. I've been looking around for a dealer Gen III but can't find one locally, seems to be all sold out. So, if there's anyone around the area would let me try theirs would be obliged. Or, someone could ride mine, see what they think compared to theirs.

    Does vib at 2500 and 3500 signal a problem on a 2013?

    Update: The 2500 and 3500rpm vibe is getting worse (at least more noticeable) over time. Not severe but seems wrong and makes the bike less fun to ride. At all other rev points the bike is comfortably smooth. To date: - dealer retorqued the motor mounts in the 4000mile service (odo is now...

    Does vib at 2500 and 3500 signal a problem on a 2013?

    Dealer just completed the 4000mile service, The rear motor mounts were under-torqued and the TB sync was a little out at idle. They addressed both. Result is better and worse. Better as the heavier vibration at 2500 and 3500rpm is now a lot less pronounced, now more a 'heavy' buzz than a...

    Much appreciate all the feedback, thanks! I plan to attend the tech meet so we'll check out the TB Sync and engine mount torques there.
