    Convince Me

    A little off topic, but I have the Corbin smuggler on my FJR. The lines fit the bike and compliment the overall visual apeal. The smuggler for the C14 looks like sombody bolted down gd toaster oven behind the regular seat, complete with the "ribbed for her pleasure" look. It is awful looking...

    Zumo 550...XM Radio capability

    I have the Zumo and XM radio combo as well and couldn't be happier. It has worked flawlessly and has been on my bike since new, so for the last 11,000 miles or so. I stuffed the XM antenna inside the fairing behind the glovebox on the left side, it's held in place basically with a bunch of...

    Communication devices

    Can't go wrong with a call to the Captain! Nothing better than great customer service and someone that knows their product!

    pulled the trigger!

    Congrats Jerome! You will love the bike, and you live in a great area for riding. I lived in Ketchum for a while and nothing beats the SawTooths for fun. I would definately nominate Sun Valley for next years WFO!

    Sad Day

    I have a 07' A Black Cherry but I don't think it was me. The only other Feejer I'm aware of (07'A model) is ARTISTONFJR. I do live iin that south area of Sandy, however. The only other FJR I know of is CDogman, he has a silver AE model, I think it is also an 07' (not sure).

    Pazzo levers

    I have a set as well and they are totally worth the cost. Bike Effects has them and the guy in charge is a fellow FJR rider and gives forum member discounts! Shop local!

    music for feejeer

    I went the Zumo - XM satellite radio/4gb SD card route. Has been working great for nearly 2 years now. Nothing like tunes and riding.

    Sad Day

    I don't live too far from you and I don't put the bike away for the winter. There's always those few nice sunny days, albiet chilly, where you can get in at least a 30 minute romp around town. It's good for the soul and the bike. Something to consider.......

    Got on a FJR and took it for a spin...

    Windshields, after market seats....... Blonds..... Brunetts..... Redheads..... Everyone has their own likes, and you will have find yours. I tried 6 different windshields until I found what works for me. After 2 different Cee Baileys I found one I like for the winter riding and the large...

    2009 FJR color scheme modifications

    What kills me is Yamaha has a paint job, available only in the Euro version. It Rocks! If any body can find the US marketing director for Yamaha and ***** slap him silly, what the ****!

    05-07 Clutch Slave Cylinder swap

    Motochik, I've done the mod as well and I can tell you it makes a significant improvement. It is real important that the system is bled very well, any air trapped in the system will negate the improvement with a longer pull required on the clutch lever. I also saw an improvemnt with the...

    Another custom FJR paintjob in progress..

    Un believable! I have almost the same paint job but mostly in pink.......

    2 months into the new bike...

    I really feel you will come to love the FJR. There are some short comings that can easily be fixed. 90 degree valve stems from Bike Effects, work great and are a cheap easy fix. Enjoy-

    Have you had a valve stem failure?

    After 10K miles plus and triple digit speeds on the stems from Bike Effects with zero problems and zero worries, they (jeff) should charge more!

    would you make fun of me

    It seems as though everybody has failed to ask the obvious; -were said hosiery occupied by a woman prior to use as an "anti glare device"? Being inventive is one thing, but the smell is another! :blum:

    What do you do for a living?...

    On a similiar note, Captain, LCA and DE for SkyWest Airlines. Spent alot of time at the ATL FSI last year, it seems if you get away from the airport area, Atlanta is a pretty nice place!

    Tailbone Injury

    3 weeks ago I wrecked pretty bad on my dirt bike, numerous injuries to my ankle, knee, and my ***. Of all of these injuries, my tail bone seems to be the slowest to heal. I went dirt bike riding last weekend, hurt like hell. I probably wouldn't have gone but the trip had been planned way in...

    2009 Slave Cylinder on a 2008

    I've always done that too, two finger clutch and brake. Here's the fix, shorty Piazzo clutch lever from Bike Effects. Better ergonomics, easier and greater adjustment, and it will clear your ring and pinky finger. Plus they look totally bitchin!
