I had the front wheel bearing go out on my 2003 fjr at 5000 miles.

The 450 Honda Rebel was my first bike when I returned to riding. What a nice bike. I loved it..Real low seat hight for the short guys/gals and a blast to ride. Never had a bit of trouble with it.

I love the red and black...prolly why I bought a red and black suzuki when I got rid of my 2003 fjr...but why do they keep the underside silver? IMHO it would look so much better black there~

You might consider the SV650..I had an FJR and it was a bit too top heavy for me. After I laid it down I knew I had to get rid of it. I got a gel seat for the sv which lowers it some as well. I have added a Givi windshield, heated grips, sliders, rear spools (for the rear stand I got for...

Try one more time..I went down in oil on a freeway offramp in the dark...a broken rib and $3000 in damages to the fjr..I got rid of it after that...not the bike for me..I have this bike now.. https://www.geocities.com/trap_35/svws2.jpg

I used to be a member here when I had my 2003 FJR. As some of you know I had a get off and when it was repaired I traded it off for a smaller bike. At any rate, a fellow employee was telling me yesterday that he saw an article that the FJR had 25% of the market now for sport touring...

Thanks to all of you who wished me well when I dropped the bike last November. The FJR is a great bike...just not for me...it's just too heavy and I never tour anyway. I have a 2006 Suzuki SV 650 now (picked it up today) and very happy with it. You all are a great bunch of folks. Thanks for...

Saw it again today. Is this anyone here? I live on the corner of Indian River and Greenback...the second light in from I 80~

Your post is valid..BMW is a nice bike..has a few farkles stock the FJR doesn't have..Have bikes to try out I hear...Just a bit more pricey..Up to you what you wanna buy I'd say. The deal is to ride isn't it? Does it really matter what the bike is?

Silver Penguin: Right on!~ Right on!~

I just went thru same kinda thing last Veterans day...broken rib..major damage to right side of the bike..Cost was $3000..no way I could pay for it so turned it into insurance (that's what we get it for). I hit oil on a freeway offramp that someone had left for me..Get the bike to a shop, turn...

I ordered Avons from FJR Goddies last year. Took them to a shop close to me to have them put on. He had nothing good to say about Avons at all. I just smiles and said I'd be back in an hour to get the bike. Love these tires!~

I like the desert metallic alot but I just love this! https://www.geocities.com/trap_35/FJR-Red.jpeg

Silver Penguin Jill where was that pic taken? I lived in Fort Bragg for 27 years and moved when the mill closed to Citrus Heigts near Sacramento in 2002.

BTW the bottom of the bag isn't fucked up..it's a reflection of the hawthorn bush it was parked next to~

Twilking 50 : Yes much more functional for day to day..I painted them silver a couple of years ago and have hated the botched up job I did. Much better look. https://www.geocities.com/trap_35/bags5.jpg

Well..only had to suite me anyways and it did~

Sees all the varied posts and just chuckles. Why is it so many find that a simple solution is so not worthwhile? Why does it have to cost alot? The paint was $7.99 and the sandpaper $2.86 and a couple hours sanding and painting..taking my time with a beer~

Not a very good pic... https://www.geocities.com/trap_35/bags.JPG
