    TIRES?? What tires are everyone running on their FJR?

    I got about 7,000 out of my first and probably last set of PR4s. I'd like to get at least 8k out of a set.

    Stop&Go Emergency Tire Repair.

    I've had good luck with my mushroom plugs over a 15+ year period. Only had one fail because when I cut the tail I was pulling on it with pliers and it didn;t leave enough rubber to stay in good. Just leave em proud like you were saying. GP

    Valve check/Valve adjustment in Dallas-Ft. Worth

    Lone Star in Irving. The service department seemed to be competent. It's not really farther from me than the shop I usually go to in Rockwall, but you have to drive through downtown Dallas to get there and back unless you want to go 10 or 15 miles out of the way to avoid it. The traffic sucks...

    Valve check/Valve adjustment in Dallas-Ft. Worth

    Just from reading on the forum over the past years, most will tighten up at different rates. I think there might have been some problems with FJRs that were never checked and adjusted when they needed it. The only way you can be sure is to just get a new FJR every 40 to 50 thousand miles. Ha...
