    2005 FJR non-ABS wrecked $1000

    This is the last of my FJR stuff. Was going to make another reverse trike, or possibly rebuild it naked. Don't know when/if I will ever do anything with it. Bike is mostly complete, minus most plastics in the front. Have bars, forks, triple tree and front fender. Fairings, windshield...

    All of my photos were on Webshots, and they are gone! I am going to try to clean this up and add back the photos.

    FJ1300RT Reverse Trike Concept

    Have driven about 3000 miles, including an overnight trip during the summer where the electric fan failed. Overheated and popped the top off the overflow bottle, spewing hot coolant everywhere. Had to wait until the weather dipped below 90 degrees to get home, with no fan and a cork for the lid...

    I only have the top box and case left of all the items in this thread. It is actually a nice unit for the 2003-2005 FJR. Here are some earlier pictures of it mounted on the bike, and one of just the rack. After the trip to WFO, I added the backrest and moved the case back approx. 2 inches to...

    Lower prices on remaining items. If anyone is interested in these, let me know. (Tired of ebay and paypal taking all my money, would rather see someone on the forum get the stuff.)

    Jacket and Pants

    Good as general all around pants, but not great specifically for warm/hot weather.

    I do not know enough about the 2nd Gen to know if any of these items will fit? Maybe the pegs, risers? Not the windshields. Not sure if the luggage rack is the same. Can someone help?

    FJ1300RT Reverse Trike Concept

    Update: It's actually done! Oops, no, spoke too soon. I know it will never be done. Got the windshield in, and made all necessary adjustments. Changed out the clutch master cylinder, which solved the bleed-down issue that I was experiencing. Added a smoke plexiglass wind blocker, mostly because...

    Weight. There's a weigh station a few miles from my house. It's seldom manned and the scales are usually on. After having the windshield installed, I drove over there. Front axle: 800 lbs Whole car: 1400 lbs Rear axle: 600 lbs That's with me in the car (~220lbs) and the scale goes in 50lb...

    Clutch issues are back. If I put it in first, and hold the clutch in, after about 30 seconds the car will start inching forward and then die. It's bleeding off clutch pressure. Possibilities? 1. Bad Master Cylinder 2. There is something to the gravity argument, with the bike clutch master...

    The wife and I are seriously considering NAFO in B.C. in June. Not a terribly long drive for you, either.

    FJ1300RT Reverse Trike Concept

    It's done! Er, I mean, since it will never be done, it's registered, insured and street legal! Finished the headlights and the fender brackets and fenders. It's all dusty in the photos because my shopmate was sanding Bondo. Next up is a DOT glass windshield.

    FJ1300RT Reverse Trike Concept

    I think I got the clutch and shifter issues worked out. After a couple of short test drives in a light drizzle, I can report: THIS THING IS A BLAST ! A little tricky to launch Accelerates quickly, especially in the higher revs Oversteers and peels out quite easily on wet pavement Suspension...

    FJ1300RT Reverse Trike Concept

    Thanks again. I was more concerned that the clutch was not actuating fully, but now thinking about it, it could very well be a clutch travel issue, and that my foot is not sensitive enough to feel the difference. Nitro used an automotive clutch master, and I seem to remember the main problem...
