loved mine, blue/black. would buy another in a heartbeat. made the mistake of buying a slightly newer 750 and what a turd in comparison. when i find a nice blue one i will add it to the line up watch and see. it is on my list of must haves. it is just a fun reliable one up bike.

the brace is aluminum and will bend rather easily but beware of repeat bending as it will crack. geraulds idea of a bar bolted into the holes is very good and don't be afraid to use heat it will help the aluminum bend and also relieve the stress and keep it from cracking. if it has bent a lot i...

this is gone silverhound got it. bug him.

i gotta pay more attention. i never noticed the threads with the idle complaints. when i got my bike it wasn't a problem but i ride as much as possible here in upstate NY. and it gets cold. 20 deg is my limit without heated gear. but when winter came last year the bike couldn't be ridden until...

new update with the new fixtures i am doing a big batch with the rest of the scrap. that will make 41 more sockets. after that as i have stated i will have to buy material and the price will go up. quick calculations say about $3 probably less. the new ones will be 6061 T6 aluminum. i may try to...

always on. like the storage and the look. i,m sure they effect the handling but not enough to bother.

i will be at the lake placid stn ride with my wife Margaret aka Bunny. we wont be staying at the econo lodge have had bad experiences there. so we will be staying at the comfort inn. it is a nice hotel right on the lake with a nice breakfast, pool and free boats to use on the lake. we were just...

or almost free you pay shipping. have fz1 mirrors and have no intention of going back. have a right mirror also but will require some duct tape or bondo (odot maybe). black is the colour.

this is how i mounted mine. the bracket bends down and back and attach's to the guage cluster mount. there are more pictures on another post i made. visibility is excellent and its out of the way and protected from most weather.

just a new up date have 11 done and boxed and will ship them in the morning. so thats 11 off the list and 12 new on the list. not real good progress. anyone want to come to my house and be my helper? since this has gotten so big i have taken the time to make better fixtures so that the work will...

sorry i haven't been updating this. as some of you know i have some rather serious medical problems. between that and problems with my kids it has been a pretty shitty summer so far. but i keep plugging away. i have a batch of 10 almost done and hopefully will ship them Monday before i go back...

yesterday i assisted Greg E. on his install and although he didn't have LED taillights he has bulbs in the break light that flash. when making a reading the voltage on the yellow wire with the breaks off was 3.36 volts. this caused the standard problem of having to install an isolation relay or...

don't be afraid of removing the injectors. it makes the job a lot easier. just be cautious of the two spacers under the main screws dropping them can cause a lot of frustration. have a digital camera handy. take lots of pictures as you remove things. as simple as it looks placement can be...

i liked the contrast on my connie bags. it was the rest of the bike i disliked. not that i hated it i pushed 35,000 on it in a little over 2 years but after buying the fjr i find it hard to believe i tolerated it at all. the price was right and the owners group was great.

"multiple personalities" fast when i want to be, slow when i want. makes even a hack rider like me look good and keeps me out of trouble. not that it is wanted (its nice) but this bike attracts more female attention than any other bike i have owned. i rarely clean my bike but no matter who i...

i have had corbins on three bikes. one i purchased and two already were on when i purchased. i thought all of them were to hard and have never liked them. have the stock seat on my fjr and don't like it either. had a russel on my bmw and really liked that and will get another when i have the...

in order atgatt sliders fz1 mirrors windshield yamaha manual audiovox comms gps seat it cannot be over said how much better the fz1 mirrors are than stock. when you get them go to the trouble of removing the fairing far enough to get the rubber spacers off that are between the fairing...
