Anyone parting out an 06 AE? I need a front fender - Cerulean Silver. Thanks in advance!

I stuck the nose of my 06 AE somewhere it didn't belong and now I need a new front fender. Cerulean Silver. Thanks.

and the bike stayed rubber side down.

I have experienced a similar wobble when turning and braking on a different cycle. It was a CX 500 Honda with the engine block as a stressed member of the frame (not unlike the FJR). It's a really scary feeling and I made a point not to push that bike to that braking/lean limit again. It was...

Your story is revealing -- the screws are stronger than the windscreen lift assembly. That's good to know.

"Designed to fail." That makes sense. Hope Yamaha thought of it first.

Yamaha screws are about $2.25 each. One thing I noticed on the metal screws is that they tend to loosen probably due to the vibration of the bike. It's probably a good thing to go w/ plastic screws.

On a recent windscreen change I noticed that the adjustable screen is secured with 7 nylon screws. Fortunately, I've never hit anything bigger than a big, fat, juicy bug with mine but am interested to learn how the Yamaha engineered adjustable screen has held up against former feathered friends...

Welcome to Strippers Anonomous. Oil pans cost around $200 plus installation. Plan B is an oversize self tapping plug for around $5. Try Plan B first and if you have no leaks, you have no problems. If it leaks, then you're out $205 (plus installation). There are other options in the theads.

New Zealand Update: I went on a NZ holiday this week and saw some incredible roads for riding and will post some pics. Here is another link to a motorcycle rental company: https://www.newzealandmotorbikes.co.nz/ Just north of Auckland on the North Island.

Yes, I'm here now. Here's a link for rentals: https://www.gotournz.com/ I'm going to check into renting a Kawasaki Councours (my previous bike) for $100USD for a day with a $50 surcharge for a short term rental. I'll let you know how it goes. And, here is another link to other companies...

Update on NZ. Tickets from St. Louis to here cost me $1135 r/t Decent hotels in downtown Auckland go for $50. Will check prices on motorcycle rentals. Haven't seen a solitary FJR yet, but still looking. Exchange rate is basically $1USD = $2NZD Then there's that riding on the wrong side of...

Does anyone have a mounting bracket for the Yamaha trunk that fits an 06 AE (Gen II)? Rear Trunk Attachment Kit required for installation: For '06~'07 models - (ABA-2D261-30-00) Thanks! Phil

Dave, PM sent.

Friends, I'm lookng for a good place to buy a GIVI V46 for my 06 FJR AE (Cereaulean Silver). Can someone point me in the rigtht direction? Phil

Thanks.

Will do on the factory service manual, but surely somebody's recently switched out mirrors on a gen II. I just don't want to break a $200 piece of tupperware trying to tighten a $1 nut. I'll give it a fresh try this a.m.

Thanks. Sounds like my first "farkle" will be an owners manual. Until then any specific experience appreciated as the dang thing is flappin in the breeze. It's actually too loose to vibrate :)

Hi All, Just picked up an 06 FJR-AE today from a private seller and need to get the maintenance caught up. First thing I noticed is that the left side mirror is very loose where it connects into the fairing. I had trouble getting enough tupperware off to access the nut on the inside...
