    First incident with a cager

    This could have ended out a lot of different ways, none of which could have been better than what actually happened. I'll be paying a lot more attention to behind me now when stopped, even after the cage comes to a stop behind me.

    First incident with a cager

    On my way home from work today, I was stopped in a right turn lane waiting for traffic to clear. I was in the center of the lane with my indicator on and in my mirror, I noticed a Durango behind me getting closer. At first I thought he was going to pass my on my left, and I was thinking wtf is...

    Yamaha touring screen v. CB 4"+ with flip

    I just installed my cb +4 with flip last week from the group buy to replace the Yamaha touring, but I still have not tested it yet due to my busted collar bone. I'll let you know in a few more weeks, but the GB may have expired by then. All I can report is that the tint and flip makes it look...

    NEW SCOOT IN MY GARAGE

    If you do take if for a ride, don't bother waving to another fjr......it won't be returned.

    Lost Rear Brake Pad.... 2007 FJR

    "Tried to use only engine braking and then only the front brake (understanding that even the front brake is going to use the rear some)" This is incorrect. Front brake only activates the front calipers. The rear brake uses some of the front. Regardless, this one is strange. Maybe the pad...

    NEW SCOOT IN MY GARAGE

    I think I'd rather be seen on the pedal bike in the background instead of your brother's ride. Hurry and get a new ride before summer is over.

    Cee Bailey Windshield Group Buy

    Avo was not very accurate on his delivery time of 2-3 weeks. Mine was delivered today, only 1 week! Too bad I grounded with a broken clavicle, I won't be able to ride for another 3 weeks :angry2: I'll at least try to get it mounted this weekend and imagine how much quiter my ride will be.

    New recruit to the FJR clan...reporting for duty

    Welcome from Houston. Hope you got a great deal on it. First flame is this belongs in welcome forum :o Did the PO add heated grips?? Those aren't allowed in Texas. Check the group buys for the current run on Cee Bailey.

    another windshield question

    John, That is Yamaha's Touring windshield. I have one on my Gen II and I would say it is only marginally better than the stock one. The noise and buffeting are still present, but not as severe. I just ordered a CeeBaily from recommendations here. I just hope the noise goes away. Coming...

    Cee Bailey Windshield Group Buy

    Alexi, I would call and speak directly to Avo. He only quoted me the discounted price. I believe they will not process your order until they get the minimum of 10 orders.

    Cee Bailey Windshield Group Buy

    I just placed my order with Avo this morning for a flip with light tint, +4h, +3w. He said we were only up to 3???? After 10K miles, I've had enough with the touring sheild and all its noise. Thanks for setting this up.

    Are we just that good?

    Are you asking for crash reports?? This is the result of my get off last Sunday. Fortunately it was on my WR and not the FJR. I somehow managed to get thrown off the trail and, after slipping between two rather large trees, the front wheel hit something that did not want to move. My...

    Igntion Switch Recall = New Back Tire?

    So did you check you mileage to see how far they rode around to test your switch? I wouldn't think they would have to take a test ride for a switch replacement. I'd ask for a matching front as well :rolleyes:

    Throttle Aids

    I just finished up installing a Madco throttle lock on the fjr. I also did the throttle spring mod after purchasing. Does that count as well?

    Mounting issues for tollroad crap!

    I used Sticky velcro, heavy duty velcro. The fuzzy half went on the pass while the hook half was stuck to my right handlebar. I did not like how it looked on the Windshield, and it may block some of my forward vision. It does look a little odd to see the strip there w/o the pass, but I can...

    Mounting issues for tollroad crap!

    I have mine mounted on the handlebar with Velcro. I usually store the ezpass in the glovebox to deter theft, and attach it to the handlebar when I know i will be riding on the tollway. When i'm done, just rip it off and put it back in the glovebox.
