Nice bike! Good luck with it

Tempted???? Any tick issues?

Excellent report as usual! Thanks for bringing us along

At first glance I thought the old Madura was towing the manure spreader!!!

Yup BTDT. Rolling my gen1 out of garage after a few adult beverages foot slipped on garden hose and over she went pinning me between the bike and a metal shelving unit. Shelf rocked back dumping all its contents on me. Was stuck for quite a while until i figured out how to get bike off me! I...

Excellent ride report thanks for sharing!

Have old style HF unit with the curved metal jaws to hold rim. Simply wrap rubber electrical splicing tape around each jaw before use. It protects the rim and provides adequate friction to prevent rim from slipping. Use the no-mar bar and 2 ratcheting clamps from Lowes to squeeze tire tigether...

Ended up with a British bike as my primary ride and am very pleased with it. Decided a few years ago to give up street bikes and strictly ride enduro stuff. Been an avid off road rider my whole life and traffic and congestion on the roads really is getting bad here in N.J. Sold the FJR and was...

Strange problem. Funny thing is my FJR never did it. If i ran it for a short time it would run a little rough next startup but clear right out. I had a 1994 Saturn SL2 sedan that did the exact same thing if you started it just to move it the next day it cranked over as if the plugs were removed...

Same here!

14" there abouts here in southern N.J. Some local towns reporting up to 17". Current temp here 11 degrees not gonna move much and actually going below 0 here tonight and Sat! Very unuasual for coastal south Jersey. Been below freezing for last 2 weeks.

Coming from a 900lb Goldwing the FJR felt like a lightweight sportbike. Now riding a 437lb Triumph Sprint RS makes the FJR feel very heavy and cumbersome in the tight turns. Its a tradeoff but overall the FJR does everything pretty darn well.

Had a set in my 04. Cant see how just the weight applied to them resting your legs could bend or distort anything. My bigger concern was damage to engine during a drop or low speed tip over if the brackets hit the ground. Ended up removing mine and selling them as i didnt really use them

Sorry Pants but I beg to disagree. I think that blue is awesome! But thats coming from a guy who rides a "lucifer orange" Triumph Sprint!

Hey KMK nice ride report. Im heading up there next friday on my Sprint RS with a buddy on a ZRX11. What hotel did you stay at in Hancock? looking fwd to some great riding up there. You pic looks like Hawks Nest on rt97

Art thanks for getting back on the air hawk. I located a dual sport version on ebay. Fits my Triumph Sprint seat perfect. Gonna test it next friday heading up to Catskills. Hope its the answer the stock seat is brutal after about 90 min. I got spoiled on myFJR with the russell

looking for a used Airhawk seat cushion. Anyone? Thanks, Paul

My 2004 always did it after riding in rainy wet conditions. Only bike I've ever owned that did this?

I remember a couple guys from my Goldwing days that used Walmart supertech 10w40 and were still going strong at 300k+

Same as my 04 bike idled better and most of the low speed surging went away.
