I recently purchased an FJR from Texas and the dealer there suggested I check out Keyboard Motorocycle shipping. Their pricing, insurance, and timing was right in line with the other 4 shippers I was looking at so I gave them a try. First, let me say having seen their shipping gadjet for the...

Just ordered up the PC8 and wiring harness from EB. Jim over there was very helpful and quick on his email responses, within a matter of minutes, although it may have helped I was cruising the site at 11pm on a Sunday. The fast shipping - EMS - was only an additional $3.65 for my $115 order...

Possibly, but doesn't feel exactly like it. I am taking the bike into Roseville Yammy on wednesday and will ask the techs about it. The service manager rides an FJR I believe so I am hoping he can shed some light.

Or better yet, simply don't install these fixes on your bike if you don't think it helps. I believe these guys since it is apparent they understand it better than I do. Yes, I am a lemming jumping off the cliff here, but at least I don't have a spider bite on the way down. :P

Here's the owner's manual CLICKY The link on the left hand side of the page used to get you to the official Yamaha publications (I bought one off the Yamaha site a few weeks ago - no idea why it isn't working now.) Maybe google for the official publication site.

Ya and if you don't like the rider they are out over the center line . . .

I use tiregard with no complaints. Easy to install, has warning preset you can change for low pressure, and has temp. Have used this for years with no complaints mainly cause it's easier to hit the switch then check with a guage. Love TPS.

I use and have used the tiregard on my bikes for a while now. They work great for me.

Your local Yammy dealer? I have ordered a few things online from mine in Roseville without any issues.

But you look so fugly from behind! :blink:

HEY RZ! Your numbers are why I went with Road Runner's setup versus the entire spider approach. I like the simplicity of the design and ease of install versus having to chase down all those pesky spider bots. Here in No Cal in stop and go my fans come on quite a bit and this just eases my...

Sorry for the new post, but couldn't find the one I thought I read somewhere about this issue (well more of how this bike just IS). When I come to a stop my bike does this little chug a lug rather than a smooth transition from rpm to idle. It never feels like it is going to die, but there is a...

That's a real pro - doin it in weather even!

Love the vids, the music was a bit "much" for me, I started to go get the Jerkins. Loved it though! Nice job. hey dcarver - can you fill me in on your video setup? PM if you want to avoid a thread hack. Thanks!

I love this bike more than any other I have owned. It just feels right (other than my dead hand issue, but that will soon be rectified.) I just love the way this thing feels - solid, powerful, and willing to do anything I ask it. The twitchiness of my crotch rockets isn't there. It's SO...

I had a hard time when I first got the bike this week mainly because if felt like she was going over on the right side when I had the center stand level on the concrete. I actually spent about a half hour practicing in my garage so I got comfortable with how the action feels. For me it wasn't...

I agree with all that has been said and Yamaha should step up here, but do we all recall the Pinto? Fugly? Sure? Potentially deadly in a rear-ender? You betcha. The cost benefit anaylsis here for Yamaha really does not add up to them issuing a model- and year-wide recall on the spider...

Makes me thankful I bit the bullet and will be installing road runner's harness before the spider bites me. Dealing with the dealer can be a headache at times for sure.

Lucky for me my arse is ok with the stock seat. Coming from the crotch rockets I find it almost like a lazy boy. I am sure that has more to do with actually sitting up rather than the seat, but my bum is happy - for now (until I run out of farkles). I like the cruise idea and until the 500...

I actually like the stock grips. Riding style doesn't help at all. Jumping on the bars.
