    Saddest Day of Our Lives...

    HRZ- Just read your post and wanted to tell you how sorry I am. Sounds like a great guy. I'm sure he must have been proud of you. I lost my dad many years ago and there isn't a day that goes by I don't think of him. Hang in there man.......

    Staintunes

    Thems are tasty! If I didn't already have some I'd give those a look. Lets see now, If Scooter would buy my holeshots....****, I forgot he spendin' all his Euros on Koolaid these days. ;) Oh well.

    Staintunes

    I loved the look and sound of the Staintunes I had on my 03'. I bought them back in 03' for about 700.00, still pricey but worth it. Shortly after I bought the 05' I found a nice pair of used Holeshots for 350.00 which served me well for 5 years. They are now on my 09' and going strong...

    Frankentank Lives!

    I've got to admit to being a little skeptical about how "Frankentank" was going to come out. Gotta say you've done a great job on this project. Can't wait to see the finished (painted) project. :clapping:

    Gen1 Vs Gen2 And Why

    My experience with Gen1 / Gen2 versions pretty much echo what's been said. - 03' was definately the quickest and ran resonably cool for a Gen1. - 05' wasn't quite as fast and ran noticeably warmer. Better suspension than the 03' and overall a great bike. - 09' Couldn't tell much difference in...

    SW-FOG 2010 Shirts

    I think I like the shirt as is with the mis-spelling. Collectors item! Just need to figure out when/how we can get together so I can pick it up. Thanks HRZ for your efforts.

    I'm a *******

    Sorry to hear about your mechanical woes, but glad you had a good rally. Wished I could have made it up there but it wasn't to be. Special kudos to HRZ for going above and beyond. His kharma bank runneth over!

    Need some advice on Y.E.S

    I've had Y.E.S. on all three FJR's I've owned. Didn't use it on the 03', did on the 05'. I'm not anticipating any problems w/ the 09' but.......all betting aside, how much is "peace of mind" worth to you? <_<

    Ohlins or Penske?

    That was exactly what happened when I ordered my Ohlins shock. Dave Hodges @ GP Suspension suggested and installed a more appropriate spring (no charge) to accomodate my "mature physique" ! :lol:

    Ohlins or Penske?

    Sounds like you've got a great setup on the way. I went with the Ohlins and some fork springs. Totally transformed my 09'. Dave @ GP was a great guy to deal with. Enjoy!

    Yamaha Super Tenere 1200

    Stadium also has great online prices for parts and accessories. I've had several dealing with them and the experience was good.

    Building a motorcycle lift... anyone????

    How about a pic of an elevated FJR using the Harbor freight lift? Are you putting it under the exhaust system to lift the bike? I'd ruled these out years ago for use with the FJR. Thanks

    V-Stream Windshield

    Money back guarantee if it doesn't work for you. They used to offer a "grade II" version for quite a bit less. It's probably the returned edging that didn't perform as hoped, or for those who thought it looked THAT bad. It's not for everyone.

    You might try Saeng edging. I've had pretty good luck with it. Have a look at- https://www.saeng.com/product.php?id=581&category=80
