Sounds like your plan for farkling is a good strategy: being around the bike in a non-threatening situation. Pretty soon you'll need to do short rides to test various farkles which is also a good thing: concentrating on evaluating the farkle might help siphon off some of the nervousness about...

Everett and all, I believe we're meeting at Down the Hatch at noon on Saturday. From RTSR1/FJR: Meet @ 12:00 @ "Down the Hatch" for meet/greet/lunch and we'll figure it out from there? https://www.frommers.com/destinations/desti...&r_id=40865

Thanks for the update & please keep us posted on Yamaha's response!

KR, Err, I don't know how to break this to you, but you've just pinned a humungoloid bullseye on your back. I personally don't mind if you own stock in Amsoil, but when Jestal gets here, you will rue the day you purchased that stock and the day you turned shill.

Gremlins sneaking around at night resetting tripmeters & clocks? Does your avg MPG reset as well? If so, likely the battery.

I, too, am garageless. I use the Dowco Guardian Weatherall Plus and it functions without flaw. Used it for just over a year with an 06 V-Max with no noticeable corrosion or fading. On the FJR, the large size barely fits without the bags. Thinking about picking up an extra large during...

I think this is current. Anyone else? Bueller?....Bueller?....Bueller?...Anybody? 1) otrfjr 2) rtsr1/fjr 3) goobr 4) taterides 5) flapsup 6) wpbfjr 7) builderbob 8) rockmurf 9) radiohowie

See #8: I think rockmurf said that he would be there.

I don't want any credit, just a place to meet, talk, & look at other FJRs. Noon at Down the Hatch on Saturday sounds great! Hope to see a lot of FJRs in the parking lot when I get there. Best, -Andrew

My PR2's are on order as of yesterday. Sweet deal at Interstate Cycles in Lake City, FL: $279 for both tires and mounting. That's $32 less than just the tires at SW Moto.

How does meeting for lunch sound? That will give folks who are commuting time to get to Daytona & those who want to do a ride after will have time. Next question: where? I'm partial to the seafood place next to the Ponce Inlet Lighthouse, but that's kinda out of the way in terms of where the...

How many people plan on being in Daytona for Biketoberfest (Oct 18-21)? Can we try to set up a place & time for a meet? (Hopefully on Saturday the 20th.)

Why doesn't the CDC use some of that money to come up with stats on the epidemic of stupidity among cagers?

They put the "bike on and in neutral before cubby cover will open" engineer in charge of the turn signals.

Thanks, everyone, for the new debugging methods! I'll give them each a try in turn.

The lovebugs are out in force in FL, and my bike is paying the price. I've washed it twice in the last five days, but some of the splatter spots are almost impossible to remove, especially those on the "nose" of the bike. Yesterday I left the bike in the rain for 30 minutes thinking that would...

I'll be damned.

No question: file the complaint.

16k miles on a Z6? Holy rubber donuts, Batman!!!

Does anyone have a pic of a Z6 with the cords showing? I'm pushing 8k and it looks like the chunk of rubber in the center of the tire is good for another 8k, but I'm not sure about the placement of the cords in relationship to the rain channels.
