    Year two FJR overview

    Very, very nice farkle list. BTW I really like my MC Cruise. As for the FZ-1 mirrors (I've got the Emgo after market ones), several weeks ago I did a 250 mile day ride with a 2008 FJR owner with stock mirrors. While he was running point I had the opportunity to watch his contortions as he...

    Dealership Is Giving Me A New Gas Tank...

    Put BMW badges on your tank. :lol: Then when folks ask if it's a BMW you can point to the badges and say yup, sure is. Nah, not gonna remove them. Actually does not bother me a bit. Did have another hiccup upon arriving at the dealership. I have the Emgo FZ1 mirrors. They get folded every...

    Dealership Is Giving Me A New Gas Tank...

    Update- Had an appointment this morning & they installed the new tank. It looks good. One small bitch is that they oriented the tuning fork badges incorrectly, with the tines pointing upward. No big deal tho & I can live with it. The dealer is Megamotorsports in West Plains, MO. Like most of...

    Stem Mount Nuvi

    You are proposing a simplistic approach that seems way too logical for me :) .

    Stem Mount Nuvi

    I plan to order the cradle from gpscity.com, thanks for the feedback on them. Am trying to not have to use a ram ball or stalk though. If the holes line up that would be gravy and just what I'd like, but can it really be that easy? If not, maybe drill new holes? Or, glue a solid plate to the...

    Stem Mount Nuvi

    I'm about ready to buy a Nuvi 760, cradle, & power cable. I want to attach it to my stem mount plate but am unsure exactly how to do it. I'd like to order all the parts at once, have them all on hand, and get the thing wired & mounted. Here's the Nuvi cradle- Here's the stem mount- What's...

    Conspicuity is what I want. Modulator, hi-viz vest, white helmet, Back-Off brake lights. Old age I suppose. :)

    Dealership Is Giving Me A New Gas Tank...

    Cool, thanks. Talking with the service manager after I saw the damage, he said if it had been a simple dent they may have negotiated a repair with me but because there was a sharp impact strike which would have required filler, they felt obliged to replace the tank. They've definitely earned my...
