    Fly and Ride 17 FJR

    Jim I had to laugh, I'm sure along with everyone else, when he gave the middle finger salute to the Muffler Boy last week.   His contribution to understanding northwest geology is priceless.  His teaching style is exceptional.  His students love him.  My niece had him while at Central years ago...

    Front end rattle 2016 FJRES

    I purchased my 2016ES with 3k miles on it. On the 350 mile ride home I noticed an excessive front end noise. (seemed loose when passing over less than smooth sections of pavement) I re-torqued the steering stem bearings and cap nut with very noticeable/positive results. However, there is...
