    Ticking

    I am obviously new to the board, and I have seen comments about ticking bikes (my 04 does it lightly as well) but I never stopped to read them... can someone either break down the situation with ticking engines for me real quick of post an internal link where I can find the info? Danka Mucho

    Rifle Sport Shield & Tuning Block

    Thanks for posting this... I had noticed the exact same things about the stock screen and was considering if replacing it would resolve the issues.

    More Ground Clearance Needed

    I asked the same question here last week and got lots of good feedback. The direct answer is: Front Spring preload = 2 lines showing Rebound dampning = 4 clicks from full stiff Compression Dampning = 7 clicks from full stiff Rear Spring preload = Hard position Rebound dampning = 3 clicks...

    Busa Touring

    Perfectly fine... my right hand was the only problem... Carpal tunnel was horrible on that trip.. took more than a month to get the feeling back, but that's happened on all the bikes I've had on long trips.

    Busa Touring

    Yup, they are Corbin Beetle Bags. Pretty, store lots of clothes, but the opening is on the small side from the top only. I'll post more photos from different angles if anyone is interested. I had mirror extensions, Helibars, Throttlemiester, centerstand, one tooth UP in the front (65mph @...

    Busa Touring

    I had a 2003 'Busa and I took it from Eugene, OR to Denver, CO and up to Sturgis, SD in about 32hours. My back and neck were fine, my butt was a little sore, but not enough to consider a break but my right hand was toast (I have carpal tunnel I think). I had Throttlemiesters but they didn't...

    Chicken Strip Question

    I'm glad to hear other FJR pilots having cornering clearance issues. The photo of the blue FJR is worth a lot to me too, since I can now judge how close the pipes are to touching down if the pegs are already there. Does anyone have suggested suspension settings for a porky person like me...

    Identify These Risers

    I'm not a big gadget fan (at least not on the bike). I normally use a chatterbox and an IPod and thats about it. I could see where a PDB would be a must-have for many riders though. I agree with you on the stacking of the risers.... I think the length of the hose/cables etc would be iffy at...

    Ok, so they are GenMars... thanks to all who responded (hint: enough with the input, it's settled). Sooooo, can I stack the GenMars (again with the hinting) add another product to the GenMar riders without worrying about cable legnth? On a different subject...it appears that I have heated...
