I have been using the Rotella T syn for the last 98,000 miles with no problem - then I used the new T6 in the last oil change and it DOES NOT shift as well as the old formulation, particularly when the bike is good and hot. Notice it more on downshifts than any other time. So I am looking for...

as the rider screams to the corner workers - QUICK HELP ME GET IT UP AND GOING AGAIN!! never seen one come apart like that but its a new day.

thank god for video cameras - what did we ever do to keep entertained before that?

what is cost of those lights?

used the sticky string many times on both motorcycles and cars and never had a problem with them. But YMMV and its your bike so do as you want.

One more reason not to move to or live in California.

ye, thanks - good job so far.

Traxxion Dynamics AK-20 cartridges in the forks and Penske 8983 remote reservoir rear shock. VStream windscreen and Sargent World Sport heated seat. They loved the bike after the upgrades. One of the writers took it on a long tour after and even though "sport touring" is not his thing, he...

nice pics - that 45 makes yer azz look fat.

Just happened to me at 99,300 miles for the second time in my FJR ownership. Came home from EOM and parked the bike for about ten days. Went out to start it and it kinda coughed and sputtered once then no fire. Tried the varying throttle position thing and almost had it before I ran the...

Oh yeah, Damn, last time I was through there about a month ago I had to rein in my speed because I got to thinking what might happen if I crested one of those hogback hills and someone was turning left in front of me and I was carrying to much speed to avoid them.

not likely but a lot of them do bear a great resemblance to a gnome!! Mostly the wimmen folk though.

Damn, sorry to hear about this. Please let him know we are all rooting for as speedy a recovery as he can with those injuries. Was this on MO 90 between Noel and Washburn? If so, there are many places where you top a hill and there is a driveway on your right or left. Great road, but lots...

from a December 2012 report - crikey that is 315 deer PER DAY hit in Pennsylvania. Hunters killed an estimated 340,000 deer in the 2012-2013 season in Pennsylvania. Moral of this story boys and girls? Kill them all and let Mother Nature sort it out! State College, Pa. — Many Pennsylvania...

yeah, waddaya think we are, patient!??

RIP to a fellow FJR rider.

I do as much work on my bike as I can because it's just so damned hard to find a competent mechanic I really trust. So much shop work now is all about speed, speed, speed and that ain't right sometimes!

Damn glad u giys weren't hurt. Now what did we learn about accelerating hard while not looking up ahead?

Soory guys but I bailed when I saw the Saturday weather forecast. At least Friday was good and Sunday looks good and vool.

I like that the FJR uses regular gasoline instead of premium. I figure that in 99k miles of riding that has saved me somewhere in the neighborhood of $700 in reduced fuel costs.
