    What did you do to your FJR today?

    Yep, my light spot is about 90 degrees off the valve stem.

    What did you do to your FJR today?

    I've mounted and balanced dozens of tires, but this is the first PR4 that's taken this much weight.

    North American Wild Card Moto-Tag Game

    Nice grab. In my opinion, we could do an entire thread just on "haunted" stuff. My wife gets into that stuff.

    What did you do to your FJR today?

    I just installed a PR4GT on my spare rear wheel the other day. Tried balancing it and it was going to take almost 60 grams of weight. I've never needed more than 20, usually 10-15. Tried spinning the tire on the wheel some, not easy even with lube because of the MojoBlocks and stiff GT...

    Fuel tank: Black 2008 FJR gas tank - LIKE NEW

    I was really nervous about drilling my tank for the aux tank fitting. I figured if I really screwed it up, I'd still be able to ride with the spare. I probably should sell it one of these days, but it's a security blanket thing. I have issues.

    Rust

    Just be absolutely sure you don't get any rust crumbs in the tank while you're cleaning up the problem area. Iron oxide is bad bad bad.

    Fuel tank: Black 2008 FJR gas tank - LIKE NEW

    Smoking deal! If I didn't already have a spare in the attic, I'd jump on this. GLWTS.

    Swapping Stator Cover Problems

    Yep. I didn't disconnect mine either, no need. https://www.vesseltools.com/hand-tools/screwdrivers/motorcycle-restoration-repair/motorcycle-repair-kit/flypage_sku.tpl.html This is the set I have. The black and silver one has a built in impact driver. Works great.

    Sometimes you have to leave the ground - to fly!

    Very cool! Looks like you had a great time. I have a buddy that lets me tag along in his balloon from time to time.

    Need good dealer for service work in Malvern PA area

    If the used wheels come without bearings (sometimes they do), you'll need them along with the center spacer (pull this out of your old wheel) and both seals. Bearings and seals should not be reused after removal from your old wheels. You'll probably also need new screws for the brake discs...

    Wanna see an incredible save?

    Nice save indeed. If we're going to be honest, few here could have done that.

    What's the Weather like where YOU are today?

    I want to be just like Mark when I grow up, whenever that happens.

    How to use centerstand

    Get yourself a WynPro kickstand pad, then the reasons to use the center stand are even fewer. https://www.fjrforum.com/forum//index.php?showtopic=125329
