    Is an FJR right for me?

    Really. D&H is the best YES price in the nation. Perhaps consider calling the folks in Wisconsin, telling them that you want to cancel the YES warranty item as you found a much better price from "D&H Cycles in Cullman, Alabama - 1-877-3YAMAHA". You may not even need buy the YES warranty from...

    Close enounters of the Prius kind

    Traveling in the cage a few years back, I was just enjoying the afternoon drive along a peaceful stretch of highway and running at the speed limit.

    Is an FJR right for me?

    Big Sky's Books - A Red Lodge Special and Memorium to Big Sky

    Cole had that marvelous way of sharing his simple love of his home state and of his motorcycling knowledge of the region. On a recommendation on the Forum, I purchased his motorcycling publications a few months back. He included official state highway maps, his Northern Rockies Rider pub, and a...

    Embarrassing Question--How Do I Zero the Gen III Trip Meter

    Aw come on, Dr. Rich. Don't be fall for Mike's gag. From behind his amusing facade of being technologically challenged, he launched his feigned cry for assistance to provide the group with a convenient target of cheerful jeers and ridicule, to bolster and further the social interaction he...

    Highway Pegs for T-Rex Engine Guards

    I see your "try em out" set of highway pegs have no padding. Are you finding noticeable vibration through those pegs versus the rider's pegs?

    Horn Wiring Harness Question

    Try this, Mike! This shows installing a pair of horns using the stock single-horn's oem wiring harness. Lots of folks are doing it this way. Probably just fine, considering how long you are likely to actually continuously hold down the horn button. The other variation (more robust, a.k.a...
