    Farewell, Metatron! We'll miss you!

    He played the smarmy villain Elliot Marsten in Quigley Down Under, he was a despicable character.

    Galfer it or Not

    I'll have to keep my eyes open for one. But no trouble with clutch lever effort so far. The Galfer kit went back to Revzilla... I've already bitten off enough to do this winter without fighting those hydraulic lines. I've replaced the ball bearings with tapered bearings in the steering head...

    Gen I slave? Is it an upgrade to the Gen II slave?

    Galfer it or Not

    After looking at the routing of the brake and clutch lines, I've decided that discretion is advised. What a pain the clutch line appears to be. And the rear brake line is no picnic. I think that I'll flush and change the fluid, and call it good. Thanks for the input.

    Galfer it or Not

    I have a set of Galfer replacement lines for brakes and clutch. I have the plastic off. Now seems like the perfect time to replace original brake/clutch lines. Is it worth the trouble? Is the Yamaha 4 year replacement interval excessive? Will the OEM lines delaminate or otherwise...

    What did you do to your FJR today?

    I just replaced the steering head ball bearings with tapered bearings. Next, change fork oil and fork springs.

    GEN II Plastic and Cowling Removal

    BD, thanks for the advice. With the weather we're having I better be patient, because I wouldn't get out of our drive. But I did label baggies for everything, so far just lost one pin for a plastic rivet, and I think it will be found.

    Group buy Seat Concepts

    I've taken off the tank & plastic so these pictures don't do the seat justice, but here you go - Ignore the dirt on the pillion seat, it's the stock seat cover and didn't get a chance to clean it off.

    Group buy Seat Concepts

    I ordered mine before the group buy was posted. It was delivered Tuesday, and got it installed Wednesday. I had an upholsterer (friendly acquaintance) do it. The installer said everything fit perfectly, and it looked like it - what fine quality and great value, even w/o the 30% discount. I...

    GEN II Plastic and Cowling Removal

    Thanks kaitsdad for the step by step. There are some differences with a 2008. Nothing of any real consequence. Even with all of the directions it was still a pain. I'm wondering how some of the screws are going to get started - should be interesting.
