    Sticking clutch

    Clutch Drag is a problem with the '07's. Seems that somewhere along the assembly line somebody decided to grease the plates of the clutch! Mine did the same thing and then one day it didn't come out of gear and I rear-ended a Honda. Take your bike into your dealer and have them remove the...

    Cold Clutch

    Fred, I just had the dealer take the bike in and check for this same situation after I was launced into the back of a Honda Accord's bumper at a stop sign because the clutch didn't disengage the trannie from the drive shaft. I couldn't tell if the trannie was bad or the clutch wasn't working. I...

    Anyone here have the Yamaha FJR Comfort Seats??

    I put one on my '07 and sold the stock one. A bit premature... the Gel seat turns int o a frying pan in hot weather. It is comfortable under 70 degrees but get past that and the folks following you will think that they are smelling BBQ ahead. I'm getting a sheep skin cover this week.

    Shifting differences between '07 and '08 A's

    I have an '07 that is really starting to piss me off. In the morning and when leaving work (even after letting it warm up for 5 - 10 minutes and pumping the clutch lever) it lurches and quits when I put it into first. It seems to be OK after I re-start it while in gear but when I slow to a stop...

    New EMU

    I rode my '07 FJR on Saturday after the replacement of the EMU. Since it wasn't raining... OK so it was snowing... and I missed my bike... we needed to reacquaint with each other. The exchange revealed a problem of hesitation with the new unit and I now don't know if the B4 and after were worth...

    Gas Mileage

    I'm sure that this has been hashed over and over... but... humor me (I'm a new owner of a 2007)... I'm getting 46 - 55 ampg with my 2007 FJR1300A depending on how aggressive I ride. I have read about the LCD having problems so is this possible? I have not seen any problems so far but then I...

    Cycle Sports in Salem

    Gotta pass this along... very best treatment while purchasing my FJR. They took VERY good care of me and Randy the Service Manager is the best. Dave in service is the one to go to after the sale. The man knows his shit...

    Throttle Adjustment

    Thanks Jeff... I adjusted the turnbuckle by the throttle grip first thing but that didn't do it so it looks like I get to take the tank off and go from there. Not a problem as I had to do the same thing with the Venture. I still think that this is the BEST bike I have ever had!

    Throttle Adjustment

    Just rode my 2 day old FJR to work for the first time today and my right wrist is killing me. There is about a 1/2 inch amount of play in the throttle and I keep having to adjust my grip when finally at cruise. This repositioning of my hand took a bunch out of my carpel tunnel wrist. How easy...
