Do you see the little holes in the tops of the brake pads that Ignacio showed you? Those holes are for pins that hold the pads in place. The pads are able to slide along those pins. It is nearly impossible for them to fall out. Something else happened and I have no idea what. Unless something...

I have a Cee Bailey tinted reverse flip that is like +2 wide and +2 or 3 tall. I took it off because it was too big for me and made riding too hot. For NM, it just wasn't what I wanted. You can have it for $100 + shipping. It is currently sitting in a box in storage.  Edit:  Here is the link...

****, I thought you lived in Florida. That's what I get for thinking. Actually, I think I had you and WFooshee mixed up and actually do remember that you were in NH. Haha! 

Except when it's raining. Except when it's too bright. Except when it's too hot. Except when it's too cold. Except when the mount isn't right. Except when it won't charge. Except when I need to talk on it. Except when service is weird. That's like saying, "The best way to get somewhere is to...

That's what you have a GPS for you big dork! 

The Quadlock is super cool. It's a little more money, but you won't lose your phone and the Quadlock has wireless charging, so no plug ins required. Just mount your phone and it stays charged. 

The last time he was here was the day he posted these. 7 days after he joined. If you haven't already and you are willing to risk it, try sending him a PM. Those go to email notification. Weird he'd post those and then never come back. My bet is he sold them somewhere else so, has no reason to...

The best thing about this ride report is that there are no direct face shots of The Bug. 🖕

I helped a guy install those once. They made the mirrors better, but not nearly as good as a set of the FZ1 mirrors. For my money, I'd go the FZ1 mirror route every time. 

You should just say screw it and buy a Harley. All the parts are made in America. Haha! Sorry man. Good luck!

The GenII 2006 wheels may not fit your 2005. I THINK only if it is the ABS model. Usually 2006 and 2007 have their own wheels that are different from all other years. The ABS sensors were updated in 2008, and if a GenI does not have ABS, the wheel may not work. There's a comparison chart around...

You will find there are very few waist length jackets around here. Most are wearing 3/4 length jackets. The waist length jackets seem to get saved for local day trips. The Motoport brand is also very popular. That jacket should be just fine, but as always, you may be shaped funny and YMMV. Haha! 

98% of the time it is flooded. Let your battery charge and then hit the starter with your throttle wide open, "WOT." I'm betting it will cough a second and then fire. Mine tried that **** last weekend. I recognized it, did the WOT on the second button push and voila, it started in less than 2...

What Ross said. Dang!!

1: The count up feature on the FJR is stupid. I don't care how many miles I have gone since the light came on. I want to know about how many miles I have left. Every vehicle with that feature does that measurement based on average MPG over a certain period of time. 2: Because I can count and...

That's fine, but don't breathe on me. Gross! Haha! 

If while on my bike, anyone is so close to me that I'm at risk of getting a cold, said cold is the least of my worries.  Even if it's a bad, scary, blown out of proportion cold. 

If you read the manual, the gauge goes to the "F" reading when there is approximately 1.5 gallons of fuel left. F is basically your gas light.  That 1.5 gallon number is very approximate, but if you run the bike long enough, it will end up taking 6.6 gallons to refill. As it is, you had ~80...

No idea why, but your picture links don't work. Still, I'm betting the guys that do the bike, crane, loading thing do it a lot and probably have it down. I'm sure there would be Hell to pay if they flipped or dropped someone's motorcycle.  Maybe call them and ask them, if you can find a number...

Dang it! I never realized Ivan finally got set up for the GenIIs. As soon as he's back, I'm going to send mine off. I put a reminder in my calendar! Lol
