    Throtle wrist has struck!

    i released my spring 1 turn on my 08 and then had problems with the throttle not returning and had to rewind it. i have been told the 08's are not sprung as tight as previous models, don't know if this is true but my experience seems to lend credence. I noticed an increase in comfort after a few...

    How do you know ABS is working on an '07?

    not to be a spoil sport but if you grab a hand full of front brake really fast you can get a chirp from the front wheel. I can do it on my 08 and could do it on my BMW. but under normal braking with a firm squeeze you should never lock up a wheel until the speed is almost zero and the sensor...

    Koubalinks

    on my old goldwing (GL1000) i removed the center stand cut 3/4" out of the middle and welded it back together. made the bike very easy to get on the stand, but didn't lift the wheel very far off the ground.

    hair spray or glue?

    spray paint. hair spray is ok unless you ride in a lot of rain. water will dissolve it and make the grip loose until it dries out again.

    Does your 2008 stall giving it gas from Idle

    I have an 08 but I can't vote because none of the replies fit. mine stalled whenever i blipped the throttle. but as it broke in it did it less and less until about 400 miles it quit. i have the idle set at 1100 exactly by my snap on scope.

    North Georgia FJR Rally!! Mark your calendar!

    If I'm healthy enough i will be there. if i listened to my wife I'd be a damn Yankee but i have refused to move south. she fell in love with it when we lived in Charleston. they are talking about another surgery this could be a nice recuperation.
