    First time since I bought the bike in June that I didn't...

    HA! I, too, had ridden each day since mid-July from Bremerton to Bellevue, and just the other day took the car during that insane-rain morning we had :angry2: The radio, the cup of mocha, the relative quiet was...hypnotic to say the least. I found myself hitting the inside of the door with...

    Hi Visabily clothing & the Police

    I've worked for a Police Deptarment for years, and I've never heard of a motor unit pulling someone based solely on their lack of visibility. Driving like a squid, however, WILL get attention. ...or when the dispatchers put out an 'Info doc' on a recklessly driven motorcycle.. any bored units...

    LED's 1157/1156

    I did the same added the 1156/1157 LED bulbs to the rear AND added the resistor to fix the 'hyper-flash' While I was able to get the LED bulbs to work at their normal flash rate, my ABS warning light would blink while the LEDs were in. (I went for a spin around the block to make sure it...

    FJRF003.1: Ignition Switch

    They did the job a couple weeks ago and all SEEMS fine. They slid me a bill for about a hundred bucks and when I asked WTF is that for, they did a little soft-shoe delay as if they expected me to pay. It makes me wonder if they have a schtick down that X % of people cough up the cash without...

    source for 4mm allen head s/s fastners?

    Oh, and I forgot about this place.. LOVE this site.. you can order just one item if you like. https://www.boltdepot.com/ got some replacement bolts for my FZR in stainless for a couple bucks. Would'a been a fortune had I gone to the dealer or OEM parts site.

    FJRF003.1: Ignition Switch

    how could a dealer not be informed by Yamaha about a recall? They say they've been a dealer since 1949 I'm going to find out first if they've ever done this fix to any other bikes and what the outcome was and i should probably ask to see the darn part first, to boot

    FJRF003.1: Ignition Switch

    it seems smarmy that they'd wave bye-bye to me as I rolled off the lot on a hefty investment knowing that a part could potentially fail and say nothing about it. well.. on the bright side, I've not sent in my dealer review form from Yamaha yet.. Karma's a bitch, ain't it..

    is it worth making a stink over, or will they just shrug their shoulders and say 'we don't care..we don't have to'

    FJRF003.1: Ignition Switch

    I have a question regarding this recall issue. I purchased my new 08 last month and wasn't informed by the dealer that this was an issue. After reading around the Internet and researching, I find that since January of 09, it's been in effect. When I called them about it, they said 'we'll...
