    Bike down, totaled slider, frame damaged, 15 mph

    Regardless of what happened to the bike in this crash, I am keeping my Skyway sliders cause I love'em. I know that they are only for a tip over and I think that they are the best looking sliders out there. As said by many others, if something happens to the bike, that is what insurance is for...

    Tankbags

    I had the "BIG MAC" tank bag that hooks to a plate that is mounted to your gas cap ring of bolts with longer bolts. I had the second largest one on my BMW R1150RT and it looked and worked great. However, that being said, I bought the largest one for the FJR, mounted it when I picked up the...

    FJR versus Gt St Bernard Pass

    That was great! Makes me miss Europe so much. I spent 8 years in Germany and loved it. I had a BMW R1150RT that I took all over Europe (Germany, France, Italy, Austria, Switzerland). Great place to ride. Best of all, the people over there are very concience of motorcycles, unlike here in...

    Accessory Box

    When I picked up my bike at D&H they told me that the power outlet in that box only has 3amps. Is that true? Also, I lost the rubber gammet from the box and the dealer in Tampa said that they can't get a replacement, they have to order the entire box ($200). All I want is the rubber gammet...

    Tell me this, oh Fast ones

    I have a J&M on my FJR and love it. I have the 3 foot antenna mounted off the licence plate and I get pretty good distance on it. I use the CB to keep me entertained on the highways durning LD travel. Also, piping music through it works great. I just hook up my MP3 player and away I go. The...

    Held Gloves - how to care for them

    Groo, thanks for the reply. I will do that with the STEVE gloves and see how they turn out. As for the GALAXY gloves with the carbon fiber in them, does anyone have any ideas?

    Not sure where to post this so I put it here. I have the HELD STEVE gloves and the HELD GALAXY gloves. I think they are both excellent gloves, however, neither pair came with care instructions. I emailed HELD over a month ago and still have not recieved a reply. So, are you able to wash the...

    HELD GLOVES

    Not sure where to post this so I put it here. I have both the "STEVE" and "GALAXY" Held gloves and think they are great. However, no care instructions came with them. My Steve gloves are very dirty both inside and out. Can you just put them in the wash or is their some special way to clean...

    New Owners change your oil

    Whoa! Leave the politics out of this, please! Leave the oil in ... take it out ... use used oil ... who cares? Well, maybe stay away from used oil. Hmmm, Americade's happening in a few. I'm sure I can find some oil experts there. My bad! I forgot, Politics, Religion and Her are always off...

    New Owners change your oil

    Ok, I read all the posts on this tread and have a question. The mechs at D&H said to ensure that we leave the oil that is in the bike for the full 600 miles. They said some owners ride 20 miles then come back and change the oil, but they recommend against it. That was what I was told by D&H...

    FJR down

    Sorry to hear it. At least it was at 5mph instead of 55mph. Hope you don't bruise to bad. At least the car show was a good end to the day. Take care and heal quick.

    Texas, Speed Limits Done Right!

    the only real way to conserve gas is to raise prices to $5+ a gallon. the quickest way to get the american people to "conform" is by hitting em where it hurts the most....in the bank account. People would consider buying more fuel effecient cars and avoiding the HUGE SUV's and Trucks with...
