    Modular helmet or solid..which do you prefer?

    I have an 06 with stock windscreen and seat. I am 6'1" 32" inseam. I keep seat in the down position. I used to use Shoei Rf-1000 (full face). Lots of buffeting and wind noise. Got an HJC Symax II (flip front) with the internal sun visor and the buffeting improved greatly and wind noise...

    Dave, Any reason why you did not make a solid tube of neoprene rather than a sheet with velcro closure? Ed

    New 2010 oil level too high

    Gentlemen, All the talk about the oil level mysteriously rising over time is, I believe, related to shearing. Internal combustion engines exert shearing forces to the oil in many different areas, piston skirts, camshaft/lifter, etc. In addition, the FJR oil is integral to the gearbox which by...

    Helmet of Choice

    I have always worn full coverage helmets and love them. I have been using a Shoei Rf-1000 with my 2006 FJR with a standard windscreen. I am 6'1" with a 32" inseam and ride with seat in the lower position. I was of the opinion that I needed a different windscreen to reduce the noise and...

    Lotsa' FJR's @ VIR

    Heidi, Just got back myself. Have to agree. Saw lots of FJRs from many years, not too many 06's though. I was going to ride from Atlanta on my 06 and thank heavens I didn't. The drive up on Friday on I-85 was horrible. Lot's of stop and go and 20-40 mph time! I would have lost my mind...

    '06 buzz through the bars

    I have an 06 A model and noticed this vibration when the bike was new. Vibration was not so bad in the bars but felt in the footpegs and between the knees. I installed a Throttlemeister lock mainly because of the strong throttle return spring and that did reduce the vibes in the bars. I also...
