Gary, I want to thank you very much for the time and interest to gather the info on your experience with the Shorai battery. I purchased one in Dec. and installed it the next day. However, I also connected their battery charger/maintainer and have kept the battery on that while it sits in my...

Interesting! Thanks for the info.

Do you have a Power Commander installed? If so, try unplugging it and going back to the stock configuration.

Front and rear should be adjusted appropriately to maintain suspension alignment. As mentioned earlier, loosen the upper and lower front fork clamps and slide the forks 'up' an amount roughly equal to how much you lower the rear suspension with the links. Probably also want to do a suspension...

I recently installed a pair of Soupys on my 05' to lower it a bit. Nice product!

Ah, another trip around the sun! Good on ya Don and start planning for the next!!

Jill, thanks very much for the 'height' and lowering links' info. The reason I asked is that I have just installed lowering links after riding my bike for 7 years! I have always had to be very cautious where I parked, etc, etc, etc and decided to try going a bit lower and see what happened...

Hey Jill, I'm also glad to hear your looling for more thrills and fewer spills with the new scout. Just a quick question, how tall are you and what didn't you like about the FJR handling after lowering it? How much did you lower it and did you do both the rear (with links) as well as the...

Nice ride report hans. Does this mean you found some thing wrong with the Risk Analysis??? Damn statistics anyway! LOL!

Awesome! thanks for the work and info.

I have an '05 with the GIVI rack and Smuggler installed. Had to slightly modify the Smuggler by reducing the height of that little ridge on top of the part that fits under the Givi rack bar. Also slightly 'compressed' the bottem of the Givi tube that the Smuggler fits under inorder to get the...

Never happened again after the dealer replaced the module. One item to note however is that the vehicle accrued mileage is stored in the gage itself, not the ECU, such that when the gage assembly is replaced with a new unit it will read zero miles like a new bike. If doing a swap out or...

I had the same thing happen on my 05' several years ago. The instrument cluster was repalced under warrenty by the dealer.

Be careful of using just any battery tender on a Shorai battery. Since this battery is composed of Li Iron cells it cannot tolerate a tender/charger that will use a desulfate charge level ever. The Shorai battery charger (and yes, they must be made of gold!) monitors the state of each...

your opinion????

New Shorai 18A battery installed over the holidays. Bike has been sitting in the garage all the time. Outside temps below freezing for at least the last 3 weeks. Garage temp this morning about 28 F. Outside about 20 F. Bike has been sitting w/o starting for weeks. First attempted start it...

Get a Shorai battery. They always start!!

I have one of those adjustable sidestands and love it! Great piece of design and nice quality.

Has anyone using the new Shorai battery considered relocating it to the tool box location under the seat? It looks like it would fit there and free up a lot of room where the original battery is located.

RIP Duke. You've gone to a better world. We'll miss you!
