I purchased my 2008 AE new from the local dealer last month for $8500 + TTL. Full factory warranty. They had in it inventory since early 2010.

PM sent for backrest.

Very, very good points. In a few days of use, haven't had any dropouts. Been working great, including down in the deep canyons in which I ride. None-the-less, great advice to follow whenever installing a new antenna.

Loving the JMCB intercom I put on the AE a week ago. Works great with the custom mount, no vibration and rock solid. In my continuing quest to bring audio-goodness to the bike, I sprung for an XM radio that works perfectly with the FJR on my setup. The unit is the Skydock, and it turns my...

Very recently bought a 2008 FJR1300AE. Once a solenoid problem was sorted by the local shop, it's been a great bike. My prior GL1800 had a well-used intercom, so one of my first farkles after a bit of research is a nice JMCB-2003 system off ebay. (I already own helmets with the J&M headsets...

Good ideas. Battery is fresh, I charged it, got about 14.2 volts on my voltmeter. Have asked the shop about ignition and actuator recalls, they didn't yet have an answer. My mistake to assume an authorized dealer would sell a bike with an active recall campaign and not have the work done. I...

Reposting here, New owner, I originally described this issue in the new member forum. Would appreciate any insights or advice. At this moment, the shop is stumped. Purchased a 2008 FJR1300ae this weekend, authorized Yamaha dealer, sold to me as new with warranty, 700 miles on the odo. It's...
