    FZ1 Mirrors

    Best Farkle there is, bar none. I would much rather lose a mirror than a bag while splitting lanes. Just don't believe the ad on ebay, I tried folding the mirror in and it broke.

    Does your FJR have a nickname?

    My wife was raised by the head of driver training for L.A. city schools. He had a slightly negative view of motorcycling. I bought the FJR about a year after he died. First she called it the murdercycle. The she switched to donorcycle. THEN she had her regular appointment with her mental...

    What music is on your MP3 player?

    Hi, bike vibration ruined by 40GB MP3 player (which had every CD I ever bought on it) so I scaled back to a 512MB MP3 player. With such limited memory I can only load about 10 CD's on it at a time (that's with the music compressed down to 56kbps). Recently I've been listening to Bowling for...

    What was Yamaha's Touring Bike before the FJR

    I hope that isn't "Goldwing chrome" (chromed plastic). BTW I can't believe one of my posts didn't get re-directed into the NEPRT shit-bin. They all seem to, whether I intend that or not. Gotta give the forum masters something to do, right?

    Super Brace

    Back Heathen, still your words. These are farkles, and some of them need not do anything except "be there" ;) Look at his tank bra, his ECM's and ooohh, he has a superbrace ;) No way those fork tubes will deform now :D Count me out, my fork tubes are nice and springy, just the way I...

    Selling Bikes on Ebay

    internetpaysafe.com website is a total scam. If someone tries to buy your bike through an escrow service and wants to wire you money from outside the U.S. you are being had. I would sell to U.S. residents only that pay with paypal or money order, which has cleared the bank and is in your account.

    Can I have another gear PULEEEASE

    If you mean that you keep on trying to shift into 6th, because your previous bike had a 6th, then you are like everyone else. I got a bad case of "shifter toe" during break-in...and now after 4 months and 4700 miles I still try to shift into 6th every once and a while. The '06 FJR comes with a...

    What was Yamaha's Touring Bike before the FJR

    Thanks everyone for your posts. I have been on one ride with TurboDave and IMHO he is one cool dude. Please say a prayer for a proper procedure and a fast safe recovery. Pinheads like me don't get to meet a man of his distinction very often.

    What was Yamaha's Touring Bike before the FJR

    That machine looks close to a touring bike as any other, I think this one is the closest thing to a sport touring bike before the FJR. Thanks.

    What was Yamaha's Touring Bike before the FJR

    They don't have bags. I'm looking for the touring bike Yamaha had before the FJR.

    Please explain your technique. Do you use any lubricant before you whack it open and burn the meat?

    Tire ????s

    Had the stealer put a new set on that I bought from SWmototires,com last Thursday. Have about 100 miles on, including 25 miles in light rain. Nice grip, dry or wet and excellent feedback. The stock Metzlers lasted 4500 miles with significant cupping on the front causing headshake @ 100 mph+...
