    WynPro ( BIG-FOOT)

    Let me start by saying I'm loving having the BigFoot on my FJR. Just about the easiest and best farkle to add. Before mine arrived, I had read some of the posts that mentioned them coming loose, so I had decided I would do the blue LocTite treatment, and did when I installed it. That was...

    I pretty much liked the bike....

    Bubblewrap? Does that mean this is the newest type of airbag safety device? Crash and the all inflate?

    Bikeeffects.com

    I agree with all this...I've gotten a few things from BikeEffects.com in the last couple of years. However, last summer I decided I'd drop in to the store to pick his brain on intercom systems. Figured it's only about a hundred miles, I'll just head up there; should be a nice ride. Oops...

    F'ing Thieves F'ing SUCK!!

    Sorry to hear about this airboss...and to Robert, as well. I'm not quite sure yet, but I think I'm glad you scared the piss out of 'em...gun shot wounds for a couple of MC tires and a toolbox...probably not what they expected, and will probably deter them in the future. (Ok, for at least a...

    Slow leak in front tire

    I chewed up a front because of low pressure...taught me to be vigilant about checking pressures. However, since I replaced the OEM tire with a PR2, it hasn't once lost any pressure. (That's about a year and 6k miles.) I decided it must have been the mounting job on the original tire. Mike

    Tank Bag

    I always thought the correct answer is "in your pants."

    Face Plant

    Ouch. Sorry to hear about this. Wish I had something better to say. Hey, at least the wife "threatening" the FJR didn't lead to getting rid of one of them!

    Keeping my bike home with me this winter.

    How did it cost you $2800? The site says $1995 for the deluxe model (the only one they have...I guess calling it deluxe is better than calling it the POS model). I would guess that you paid $139 for the mc ramp...but they don't really charge 20% sales tax do they? I too wanna see pics of it...

    Dip Sh*t Move - don't do this

    I agree...sounds like the Master Yoda Position was not in use. And, were you wearing any gear during this get-off? Wow...just...wow (what would this have been like if it started tomorrow?)

    Saw a Bike go down today...

    Ah, Imperial Hwy...so not a freeway, just a big fast-moving 6-lane (3 in each direction) street. Right? (I used to live in Downey, but it was a while ago, my memory's also starting to fade with age.) As far as lane sharing...I do it in the evening commute, on 880 where even the carpool lane...

    FYI-Custom Switches w/Led Ring

    I agree that they probably aren't safe for exterior use...they seem to be for modifying cars...you'd put these things on dash panels, etc. The Aurora 'design your own gauges' looks kinda cool though!

    Trackday

    I just tried again, and now the pics are there! Man, really looks like you had a great time! I may have to try this out!

    Trackday

    Dude...way to rain on someone's parade. Sheesh. If you're so disappointed, then feel free to close the browser window. Personally, I would have LOVED to see watermarked pics...it appears that hart-photography no longer exists (as of 3:50pm PDT 8/29/2010)...it has no webserver running.

    Chock

    I've got the Condor SC2000 (the trailer-only model mentioned above). I've only trailered the FJR once, about a thousand miles. I had one strap holding the tire tight to the vertical part of the chock, and then two straps at the far end, similar to what their video shows. Lots of bumps and...

    ** BRODIE NEEDS OUR HELP ** Serious Collision **

    I'm very bummed this happened. I live in the next town north of Brodie (Fremont), and have a long-bed truck and a closed trailer that I've used to haul my fjr around. Let me know if I can help...either lifting, hauling or anything else. Mike Peck 510-739-6789

    Free GPS Tracker program for PDA cellphones

    Thanks for the pointer...I just installed it on my HTC Incredible. Had to reboot the phone to get it to work, but it's happy now!
