    Cycle World Feb 2011

    After what I have seen come out after I purchased my 05 in the sport touring market,I can't be happier with my ride. Leaner meaner, bestest,fastest, and of course the best looking.

    Gen I vs Gen II

    Gen 1 more sport less touring. Gen 2 more touring less sport. But its really splitting hairs. Just as long as you know 05,s "gen 1" are the best!

    Oil drain plug + washer won't seal

    If it was my ride I would not take any chances. I would replace the oil pan.

    Sometimes a Ticker doesn't Tick

    I talked to my son who works at the local Yamaha Dealer. Ring Free is good stuff. I am going to start running the stuff. How much are you running per tank in your FJR. And should I put that stuff in my cars.

    Sometimes a Ticker doesn't Tick

    Sounds fishy to me. I would get a second opinion. I can recommend another dealer. Some friends of mine have owned a Yamaha dealer for 25 years and my son works their.

    power command

    I am planning on purchasing a Power Command for my 05. Do I simply plug it in for performance improvements. Or do I have to go through programming it as well. I realize I can do custom maps. But can I just plug it in first without any programming for performance gains to see if I like that...

    Looks like the Gen II is Faster

    Wait I had it wrong I am suppose to inhale the Helium then run the quarter. That way I will be lighter. Less load on the engine.

    Looks like the Gen II is Faster

    Your video should be titled Gen 2 is fast than Gen 1 with modes. So what know kidding ! Do a video both bikes the same, apples for apples. And if both riders are good the Gen 1 will always win. One of the best ways to make something go faster without going to the motor is make it lighter. My...

    Looks like the Gen II is Faster

    To Simulate the performance of a Gen 2 I put my Weimaraner on the back on my Gen 1 and went for a ride. It was slowing in a drag race and felt heavier cornering.

    Looks like the Gen II is Faster

    Gen 1's are faster than Gen 2's. Gen 2's weight more and have taller gearing. Yamaha went for more touring less sport on the Gen 2's. I rode a Gen 2 liked it!. I like my 05 more. Try wheeleeeing a Gen 2 then Wheeleee a Gen 1,much easier!. Gen 1's corner sharper, shorter swing arm. On the highway...
