    Canyon Cages Arrived

    I love the high school shop project welding and paint quality. Really? Why is everyone tripping over themselves to bolt these on?

    Does Hi-Viz gear really make you more visible to other motorists?

    From reading stickers on little black shorty helmets on black leather-clad cruiser-riders, I've learned that Loud Pipes Save Lives. Apparently that is sufficient.

    Wind Shield 2013 Gen III

    Well, I installed the new windshield from California Scientific and I've ridden with it for about 50 miles. Here's my initial observations: - Very easy to install. The instructions are adequate. Quality is very good. Delivery was quick. - CalSci included steel bolts to replace the plastic...

    2013 FJR 1300 Owner's "Registry"

    250 cold miles and my only complaint is that the stock mirrors just plain suck. As if I want to ride around looking at my elbows all day without a clue as to what may be behind me! I'll just keep an eye on the Farklemeisters here and see what they come up with. Patience. But, oh, those heated...

    2013 FJR 1300 Owner's "Registry"

    I took delivery of gen III #126 on 12/15 and, so far, I love it. This is my first sport bike, having only ridden a cruiser before so I am easing my way into FJR riding. I feel like my riding mindset and approach to motorcycling outgrew the cruiser and the FJR represents a more serious...
