Back to the subject of passenger peg extenders.. I have tried both MCL extenders and these: https://www.cycle-istic.com/PegExtenders.html To be honest, My wife and I both find that The Cycle-istics with Kuryakin pegs work better for her and ME, IMHO. Here is why; The MCL adapters drop the...

One of the best ways to "keep your toes in the moto pool" was already mentioned here. Find an old, lightweight 70's bike to restore as a hobby/project. Even if you decide to simply sell it (or keep it for your child as a project of love) when it's done, you will still get much of the...

Ordinarily I would agree with your point, wholeheartedly. :headbonk: While not trying to make any excuses, in this case, I had zero miles on this particular bike and got on the freeway within a mile of my warehouse (where I had the new bike delivered in January for winter storage/farkeling)...

Correction, I have inspected the interference issue and found that it was the retaining nut on the bottom of the pivot lever bolt that was scraping against the handguard (ONLY ON THE BRAKE SIDE), and the front part (tang) of the Pazzo pivot that depresses the electric switch mechanism in the...

Under 12K for an '08 (+ taxes, plates) is not out of line if you shop around.

I recently installed a host of farkles on my 0 mile '08 (not much else to do in Michigan winters). I was planning on installing quite a few additional farkles after the 600 mile break in period as it would then be a good time for me to remove the plastics. This weekend I decided to take the...

Try the Iphone noise isolating adapter made by Shure. It gives you all of the functions of the factory earbud switch but allows you to use quality aftermarket earbuds. BTW, the Shure noise isolating earbuds are excellent. I have used it at highway speeds and it works quite well...

You can buy an '08 with all of the improvements and that great BLACK color for less than 12K at D&H. Why go for the '07?

I have been a member of this forum and a couple of others (CBRXX.com and CBR1100XX.org) for some time now. Recently a thread started by one of the members about a jacket she saw on an Ebay site caught my attention. I decided to pursue the matter and began investigating the opportunity to...

I bought mine locally for under $12,000 + taxes. I would have bought my bike from the forum favorite dealer for the same price (D&H motors :clapping: ), but I wanted it in January so that I could begin the farkling early.

Have a look at this product: https://www.webbikeworld.com/r2/glare-polish/glare-polish.htm BTW, be careful around the decals if you are using an orbital polisher. I also prep the surface with a clay bar system first (Meguires), to get the panels absolutely spotless and spooge free prior to...

I am curious to know what effect installing a PCIII on a bike has on the settings after doing the BJM. If you are installing a smoothness map on the PCIII after installing a set of slip ons, are you defeating the purpose of the BJM? :huh:

If you plan to load a ton of pistol loads or .223 for varmint shooting, go with a Dillon 550 or 650 with an electric case feeder (I have both with a small collection of die holder/powder measures already set up for pet loads). If you are loading for competition rifle or a couple of boxes for a...

Dale, Can I split the brake circuit and still install an MCCruise without electrical gremlins popping up?

I'm always open to a Group Buy, Dale! :P

Spiegler offered to make a custom set of brake/clutch hoses for my '08. I may take them up on it this spring as they are only a couple of hours or so away. That way they will be able to catolog them for the Gen II bikes. The only other brake lines i would consider are the HEL brand. I will...

Thanks for the replies, though very few of these companies list a remote preload option for the Gen II fjr1300. I called Klaus today. He will have an answer for me next week. Those Hyperpro shocks look very interesting, too. Are you sure that the only difference between Gen I and Gen II is...

Is there anyone manufacturing a quality rear shock assembly for a Gen II fjr that has a remote preload option? I bought the Wilbers during a previous group buy for my '05 and really like that feature as I ride 2 up on it on a regular basis.

Just curious,.........Is this still a possibility? :ermm: Bike effects doesn't list the Gen 2 guard yet?

The microphone adapter: https://www.shure.com/PersonalAudio/Product...A_phone_adapter has worked quite well for me in local traffic of about 60mph. I have not had a chance to test it at faster speeds. My wife will generally not call me when I am riding. The Voiceport microphone/switch pod...
