    Any recommendations for a non-slip mesh seat cover?

    +1. Best seat cover I've ever had. I have one on the FJR, and the ZZR.

    Throttle Body Synch…

    Mine when I did a sync at 30,000km a couple of weeks ago. Worth checking.

    What's the Weather like where YOU are today?

    We hope to be in your neck of the woods early July. We're visiting Canada and the US end of April, and then hopping on a cruise ship out of New York, which will stop at Halifax, Corner Brook and St Anthony, before heading to Greenland, Iceland, and the UK.

    RH is fine this week, around 30%. Cooling off at night - temps shown are generally at dawn. During the night it can be quite warm.

    Sold ST2 Self-canceling Turn Signal Controller

    Good move selling it. ST2 components don't work well IMHO. I tried their brake modulator, it flashed almost non-stop, even when stationary. I still have the signal cancelling unit for my ZZR on a shelf.

    My FJR had a WindRider cover on it when I bought it. I notice that very shortly after any rain, I don't get a wet arse.

    moore mafia ecu flash

    It looks a lot like the Woolich flash - Site. It seems to do similar adjustments to Ivan's flash. Here in Oz, it works out to be around the same price as shipping to and from Ivan in the US. A local tuner has all the gear and can install maps, plus do a dyno tune to adjust.

    They told me that they would update their site with a link to the FJR cover. But they haven't. However, Trish from WindRider offered me one and would like feedback once I have tried it. She said: -------------------------- Hi Bill, It’s Trish from Wind Rider, We wanted to thank you for...

    The Airflow / WindRider seat cover I have on mine is excellent. Seat is very comfortable. So much so, that I forked out for such a cover for my ZZR1200 with OEM seat. I have had that seat redone with better foam, used a sheepskin, gel pad, even replaced it with a Corbin. Now, the OEM seat...

    After market slip on exhaust for my 2007

    I installed a set of Black Widow slip-ons. Black Widow also sells the link pipes. They look and sound good. I have left the dB killers in at this stage. I also have these on my ZZR1200. I have in the past used Delkevics on an FJ1200. Good quality and sound. I prefer the Black Widows however.

    Good ride, I'll bet. Cop some rain? Or was this some time ago?

    I emailed them, they replied that they are working an a design for the FJR, which should be on their site in a few weeks.

    The dreaded whine - questions

    I get the same on my 2019. It seems to have to do with the fact that the gears are not helical, but straight cut. I don't know if they were helical prior to 2016. Oil change time I will be putting in slightly thicker oil, perhaps that may help.
