    Battery Nuts

    slide a little piece of foam or a small piece of wood under the nut before you losen the bolt......nut stays in place. I'd remove whatever you use after you have things back together.

    Top quality HID kits for the FJR

    Scooter, and as the filament wattage goes up so does the output of the lamp. The life goes down just as fast. For example a 10 % over driving of the lamp results in a 30 % increase of light output with the life decreasing to 30% of rated life. No free lunch.

    hurt my back trying to put fjr on center stand

    What a pack of *******! I'll be 69 this year and have no problems getting my FJR on the centerstand, even when it's in gear! If the bike's too much for you just go ahead and say it!

    Anyone riding with music, a question for ya...

    So since you rode today, does that mean your horns quit honking?, or did you just ignor them?.....bet that was distracting, huh? The music selection is your problem, you need to play music that you listened to as a child, like Mozart, Beethoven, you know that popular ones from your childhood.

    Forks Fluid Replacment

    Scooter you should be able to reassemble the fork without the springs and check for slop in the bushings. I recently did this on my new-to-me '03. A piece of white plumbing pipe will be your best friend when replacing the bushings.

    Forks Fluid Replacment

    Don't quit now, you've got the hard part done. Assume it was a tech screwup and put things back together with one washer on top of the spring.....at least as I recall that's where it goes. jim

    GIVI top box vendors?

    I'm planning to add a GIVI E52 top box and am suprised to find that they're all the same price regardless of who is selling them. For those of you that have top boxes, where'd you buy them? jim

    PC III Mapping question

    Could there be a difference in the way Gen I vs. Gen II works? Big differences in injection systems and oxygen sensors.

    PC III Mapping question

    Couldn't you just switch the Oxygen Sensor in and out. In and the PCIII is ignored, out and you have your custom map.
