    FJR repeatedly dies while riding at highway speeds

    When my 05 died pulling onto a road out of a driveway it turned out to be the ignition switch contacts. After I sprayed some Pro Gold into the ignition switch weep hole it hasn't acted up since.

    Top heavy?

    "All three times almost no forward momentum and the bars all the way to the stops while turning." That's pretty much a recipe for disaster on any motorcycle. :blink: :unsure:

    New Spark Plugs -- less power?

    A small percentage increase was all those websites ever claimed. :rolleyes: The narrow pointed iridium center electrode will arc over at a lower voltage than a more blunt electrode which possibly could advance the timing ever so slightly, maybe that's what the dyno's are picking up on? In...

    Front Brake Dragging Fix Attempt (Uh oh, that's not good)

    I've rotated the pistons in the bores like this to clean them, it's still a pain in the arse but it works well for me.There is a certain amount of inherent pad drag on this bike but that makes for a quicker response time. When I looked at the price to replace the caliper seals I said, NFW.

    New Spark Plugs -- less power?

    Put the iridium's back in, they're better plugs.

    Best mapping tool?

    I think Google should just buy Garmin that might make for some better compatibility. :lol:

    A New Mexico state police officer has been fired after security cameras caught him having *** with a woman on the hood of a car.

    Officials were assured the sexual encounter was not in exchange for anything related to his position as a law enforcement officer. :dribble:

    05 Won't Start after 2 Month Layoff

    Check for a #19 fault code, if so cycle the ignition switch a few 50 times then give it a go. The #19 remedy is on here somewhere. B)

    Got a ticket today

    Does a "a 2003 Civic" have an ECU data collector that can have vehicle speed and other parameters recalled from it? Sorry to read about this Howie, I hope it works out OK in the end.

    Shorai battery install

    "It made 13.40v without the aux lights on" That sounds low, I'm at 14.1-14.2V. :unsure: Above idle I'm at ~13.8V (Datel right on the battery posts) with a pair of 55W bulbs on.

    PR2's have superior mileage

    I just replaced my rear PR2 that was into the center w/b's at 13K. I wonder how the PR3's will wear?

    Frog Toggs Suck

    "You know that feeling when the boyz first get wet? The the thigh? The knees? and down into the boots?" Ummmm, you didn't order the crotchless Frog Toggs by chance, did you? :blink:
