Welcome aboard and if you're like most of us, it will just keep getting better the more you ride it!

The main thing is you're OK and have learned something from this. SR-71's are definitely one of the coolest jets ever. Had one make an emergency landing at Ellsworth AFB when I was stationed there years ago. After it was repaired, they put on a little show by doing a low-level run and then a...

The grasshoppers are thick around here right now. I went out for a short 100 mile ride and it took me a couple hours to clean all the grasshopper parts off my wheels, lower fairing, radiator, boots, etc. They taste really good after they have cooked on the radiator for a while....nice and...

I just went to the Power Commander website and they are showing part number 419-411 for the '06 FJR PCIII, although you can't order it yet. Me thinks they are getting close to being orderable :yahoo:

+1 on your mileage on an 05! That's impressive!

That would be hilarious!!! FJR blasting down the road pulling a minature boat :lol:

Were you going up the tail or down when you received your award?

Thanks for the update War Machine! I just ordered one.

I am so sorry to hear about your husband's accident Jill. He is fortunate to have you to take care of him as he recovers. As for you and getting back in the saddle, all I can tell you is take your time. My wife was following a good friend and very experienced rider when a car turned into him...

Thanks apierre! Enjoyed the article.

Some more great information from this forum!!! I too noticed more slack than I was used to in the shifter and didn't even think about any adjustments. Thanks for the great tip guys!!!

They won't correct mine. I could care less about the instantaneous mode and don't think it's worth it to take back to the stealer to have it fixed. With my luck, they would fix that and break something else.

I totally agree!!! After 970 miles, there is very little I want to change on this bike. I did put on the throttlemeister but I can't think of much more that I want to do other than RIDE!!! :yahoo: :yahoo: :yahoo:

That's a good one!!! :D :D :D

I don't think you will ever find mirrors on a bike that look like car mirrors on the intestate with zero vibration. I've owned a lot of bikes over the years and the mirrors on my '06 are the best yet.

Wow!!! 4167 miles from the dealer to your home. I am really jealous as I only had to ride 130 miles and just wanted to keep on riding :yahoo: Welcome back to the great world of bikes! You chose your new steed wisely :D

Great review Doug! You have definitely got some good twisties in your state for your test. I try to make it up there every year. Do you recognize my Avatar?

Sorry to hear the FJR didn't work out for you. Hope you enjoy your new SV650. Stay safe!

I've been riding bikes for nearly 40 years and have owned all types. The '06 FJR was definitely worth the wait for me.

Huh :blink: I put the Throttlemeister on my '06 a couple weeks ago and it works great.
