    Helmet Speakers

    I just put in a set of speakers from the riders warehouse catalog. these are the Aerostich clothing guys. Their speakers are sold to them from chatterbox. I was sceptical until I installed them. They are totally great and were inexpensive (I think about $35). I give them a big thumbs up, and use...

    Pipes For The Fjr

    Had staintune on my beemer, been running them on my 04 fjr and couldn't be happier. look great, sound super great with the baffles out, and I know she's breathin' easier. You can't go wrong with staintunes. Ditto on buying new gaskets before you start the install. Also the bolts are not worth...

    Cupping

    How the heck did everyone get so worked up over a guys question? Man, seems some people have way too much time on their hands. By the way, you wannt see some cupping? Ride a BMW R1100RT for a few years and check out your telelever front tire. Now there's some cupping. :bleh:

    Helmet speakers vs sound reducing earphones

    I wear a shoei full face, and installed the helmet speakers from riders wearhouse (you know the aerowstitch guys). the speakers they sell are from Chatterbox company and are inexpensive (@$39) including the chord and the clips for securing the wire to the edge of the helmet. The sound with my...

    Gonna Go Pick it UP

    I have an '04, non abs. previously had a beemer R1100RT. The FJR is a totally awesome ride. every time I start it I get in the mood for a fun, fast, exciting ride. It corners great for a big bike, stops great, and the fun handle is attached to really awesome power for passing, getting up to...

    '06 FJR's almost sold out!

    Anyone know why the production is limited if Yamaha is only making as many as they get pre orders for? I sort of understand the priority advance order scheme of things, but why limit production if there is more demand. Got me wonderin. :unsure:

    Battery Charger

    Ditto on the battery tender plus for AGM or absorbed glass matt batteries, which is another word for sealed or maintenance free batteries. I think the battery tender plus is the most readily available charger at most bike shops, and not too expensive. VT :)

    Burnt Textile On Exhaust Pipe

    best stuff is called Bush's metal polish. it is a liquid in a plastic bottle, and is sold at most truck stops. truckers use it on their aluminum wheels etc. just apply, let it soften the junk and keep rubbing. Non Abrasive.............VT :haha:

    Gell Cell Batteries?

    Hey Warchild, greetings from Vermont. I did a lot of research about sealed batteries, and contacted both the battery manufacturers and the battery tender company. Here's the deal. Sealed batteries are referred to as AGM as in Absorbed Glass Matt batteries. some are shipped with the acid in...

    Hot Bean Bag

    I have an '04 and in August in Vermont, when it gets around 90 out, I definitely had "chestnuts roasting on an open fire". It really was WAY uncomfortable, and anyone that doesn't think this bike cooks the boys is a masochist. The guy that had the tech article (can't remember if it was here or...
