Ross, I'm not positive but I believe I read that the XT2 mount has been beefed up a bit and might be backwards compatible to the XT. If you'll be buying another mount this might be worth looking into.

No idea how much homework you've done nor did you ask about other alternatives but here's a link to another thread which might be of some interest. Some worthwhile opinions in there me thinks. https://www.fjrowners.com/threads/thinking-of-going-lighter.149885/ Edit: Read through or jump...

Your knowledge here is vastly superior than mine but I'd have to tether that somehow. I just don't trust Velcro and its ilk to last, especially in the heat. And I'll take this opportunity to say thanks for posting this build here. Not only has it been enjoyable to follow along but it's a damn...

Might give you an argument there Ross. Makes sense if you can't remember to monitor it's usage but there's been plenty of times I've stood next to the bike, sometimes with other riders looking on, as I figure out where I'm heading to next. Usually during a little break in the shade and the...

Ding Ding Ding What does Ross win folks? https://www.advrider.com/garmin-zumo-xt2-gps-whats-new/

If you should find a Gen I chances are the ABS won't be working anyways. Might expand your options.

And also make sure to keep the tranny in neutral while in front of that wall. :whistle: (Sorry. Wanted to contribute. Couldn't think of anything else.)

Really like! Not sure if we'll see the Ultimate here in the States but if so it'll cost me some $$ just to have.

Welcome back from Moore County.

You sure you don't work for Honda? If not, you should. You'd make a heck of a salesman. And your bike looks great in that pic too btw. Thanks for writing that for us all. Stop back when you can, always enjoyed your posts.

Don't know if that's stock or not but I could guess where the inspiration for it came from.

And one would think the Police are probably the group who practices low speed maneuvers the most. Go figure.

Not being cocky here but just walk away and call it a night. Maybe tomorrow it'll all go together with no problem.

Huh. Learn something new today again. That saves a bit of time. Thanks Russ.

<sigh> Yeah, I was focused on the sunburst. How 'bout both?

As Ross alluded to no need to seek out "motorcycle specific" oils just, and please don't take offense if you know this already, stay away from any oil showing the symbol on the right.

You sure about that?

If going H4 buy two and change them both out while you're digging in there. They have a habit of going bad not too far apart from each other.

That HF repair kit shows only three strings in it. I believe Slime sells the strings alone in a pack of ten or more. Probably worth it to have extra on hand JIC. I also don't know if they might dry out a bit over time. Same for the cement. Extras of both don't take up much room. I second a...

Don't have much experience here but it doesn't look close to the FJR either for two-up.
