    Help for AGirl in Montreal?

    Only 2 questions AGirl. For a moment I thought you had the worlds first diesel FJR. What did you do in your former working life that can afford the luxury amounts of time you spend enjoying the vast open road and composing fantastic ride reports? :dribble: Hope all goes well for you, and I...

    Need help with keeping forest rats out of my yard

    I know a 10 gauge will handle 'em, but I got to do this with a certain amount of stealth. Wifey and I have been spending huge amounts of time tending to our garden, and now the local contingent of forest rats are taking advantage of our efforts and treating it like buffet. :( Any ideas?

    Avon Storm life report

    You got me, I thought this was the only other thing worth doing with rubber. :D Unless you have something else worth while between a sheep and a motorcycle tire? :blink:

    Me and my FJR got spanked today

    Nothing to be ashamed of there Mike. An FJR vs. the ZX9 in capable hands ain't ever gonna happen. I've witnessed from a great vantage point on Hwy49 south of Coulterville first hand what a group of fast sport bike guys can do on tight twisty public highways. It just so happened that the lead...

    Skyway's Garmin 2730 GXM 30 Mount

    Thank MM2 for this first invaluable tip when you see him next. Place the red cap on a flat surface. Place screw in close proximity to center of cap. Take a small extension socket that will fit over threads, but not be any bigger than the head of the SS screw. Gently tap on socket and the...

    Avon Storm life report

    I think you're confirming what I was already suspecting about the difference in tread life between the Azaro and Storm. More grip = wear out faster. I can't think of a better way to waste rubber though. :dribble:

    New high-speed wobble

    Switching multiple items that could all possibly cause the same issue at the same time, will mean you may have to do a re-tracing of steps to eliminate each one from the list. You could wait until the tires wear out, or just keep it under license suspension speeds until you figure it out. :D...

    New cruise control get flaky with time/miles

    Connect the coil wire at the connector of the ECU, the biggest plug under the left side panel. IIRC it's the orange wire. A quick continuity check will verify this.

    Next two iterations of the Ashe Tire-Testing Program

    I'm thinking the same thing also. I think I'll burn through a set next after the storm's get removed.

    Report on the Russell Seat - 2004 FJR

    The jury is still out on the Storms. That's what I had on for the seat road trip. Without getting too far off topic, I'm holding out for some ride reports on the Bridgestone BT-21.

    Report on the Russell Seat - 2004 FJR

    Had it not been for the fuel cell kit and a need for a front seat, I would have never gone this route. Sure glad I did now.

    Report on the Russell Seat - 2004 FJR

    I recently made the trip up to Reading to get my first Russel seat. In hindsight it should have been the very first thing I ever did to this bike. The trip all started on a Thursday afternoon. Around 7.00pm I made it to the Bluestreek's residence and we headed off for dinner. Had a nice...

    Skyway's 03-05 FJR Windshield Spacers

    Glad they worked out for you. It's surprising what a few small parts can do.

    Insurance costs?

    Last Chance, give Foremost a call,(1-800-527-3905) they have been giving me good prices for 2 years. I have also had good luck with GMAC insurance on a motorcycle.

    After the tick cure.

    Even though all engine bolts are tight, it does not necessarily mean they were sequenced correctly when the motor was re-installed. Unless your statement means that you have already addressed this? As mentioned earlier, the entire engine does not have to be completely removed from the bike for...
