    Key West Poker Run Weekend

    Howie ...... I believe that was me. I was with a couple cruisers, but they weren't Harleys. If you were the one in the orange jacket, then that was me. The pillion was following in the white Dodge Caravan. We got hit by a few spots of rain coming out of the Keys and she opted for the comfort of...

    2006 FJR1300 On Yamaha Web Site

    Doesn't look like anything changed from when it was up before. No 6th gear and no cruise (not that I expected them anyway). But it does say more info to come on Sept. 28th.

    Pocketpc Phone Can Do It All...

    BD, I see no way to resolve your issue in a way that would be acceptable to me. The mono music would be a no no. If it were me, I would say to save the memory card for maps and buy you an inexpensive MP3 player. You can get one with AM-FM built in so you have a choice of MP3 or radio. You would...

    Rant About Trooper X

    For me, it would depend on the infraction and the intent of the badge. If she was impersonating, then that would be dealt with. If she identified herself as the spouse of ..... then that would be different. Personally, I have never written a brother/sister LEO for a traffic infraction. But...

    Rant About Trooper X

    I am not going to defend this LEO's actions because I don't know the who, what, when, where, or why. However, I do have an answer for why this "could" happen. 1) Possible stolen car up ahead. You don't want to spook the guy prior to getting the helicopter and other resources in the area, but...

    Key West Sept 15-20

    Well alrighty then. Since this post has recieved absolutely no attention, I am guessing that maybe the weather has changed your plans, or your wife said you couldn't go, or ????. Anyway, as of today, I am still planning on going.

    Key West Sept 15-20

    I just wanted to get a topic started for those of us headed to the Keys this month for the Poker Run/Bike Rally. If you are headed down that way, let us know when you will be there and where you are staying. I've heard mention of at least 3 of us going to be there. We can decide on a place and...

    Air Management System

    I just don't understand it. Why would Yamaha spend money on R & D and manufacturing to develop better heat dissipation and disbursement? They claim that it is in response to customer feedback and improving customer satisfaction in the FJR. But ............. I have heard it said here many times...

    Gps At Cost To Forum Members From Auto Nav 2000

    James, is there any word yet on when the Tom Tom Rider may be released?

    Butt Burn

    A&D Ointment can be found in just about any pharmacy type drug store. Try Walgreens, CVS, Eckerds, or the equivalant in your area. It will probably be near the diapers and diaper rash medications since that is what it is generally used for.

    What Is Surging, Exactly?

    BD, yes, I am going then. I sent you a PM to keep this thread on topic.

    What Is Surging, Exactly?

    BD, I am in Orlando and I just installed a PC3 a few days ago. It didn't resolve the neutral throttle blip stutter, but I do feel as though it made a difference. It feels stronger in the midrange, rolling on the throttle at 40-50mph just feels stronger and more immediate speed increase. Not...

    SEAT Choice

    I have only tried stock and the Corbin that I bought. I am certain there are better, but I can't seem to bring myself to spend another $600 without being able to actually sit on one and see for myself. I already made that mistake with the one I have. So for me ......... it is difficult to vote...

    Power Commander Didn't Help It

    Well I just went for a ride and using the Wally K Smoothness map, I can feel a difference in midrange power. It just feels stronger. Ride was quick and short, I am dodging the rain, but I had to take a short ride. Back to my grunt issue ....... for those who know all the mechanical workings and...

    Power Commander Didn't Help It

    Timbo, I sincerely appreciate your concern, but I am not doing anything that really should arouse your suspicion. Coming from a life time of dirt bikes and 2 sport like bikes, I am known to flick the throttle every now and then. In addition, the FJR is not an every street corner kinda bike and...

    Power Commander Didn't Help It

    I just purchased and installed a new Power Commander III USB (purchased from Bike Effects .... Awesome Deal) on my 05 FJR. My single reason for spending the $$ for this item was in hopes that it would resolve my only gripe about performance. My issue is that when at idle, a quick twist of the...

    Last Weekend's Farkle Work

    Very Nice Work. Did you take it for a spin afterward? No creaks, leaks, or other stuff that make you cuss?
