    Shorai Li battery - does it change charging rates?

    Installed and immediate difference across many of the characteristics I've read pertaining to an Ivan Flash: idle is still 1100rpm except now it sounds quieter and smoother throttle has no lag and smoother roll up  gear shifting is smoother? easier, better matched to rpm acceleration is...

    What's this worth to a user here on the Forum?  Let me know a price and ease of shipping, or offer me an interesting trade, or best swing by Seattle and pick it up.  Hell, I'll even bring it down to RR #10 if you'll take it.  Thanks for looking.   Archer

    Shorai Li battery - does it change charging rates?

    I'm about to push "buy now" on your battery recommendation, ScooterG & DCarver.  Do I also buy the "tracker" or just the $100 charger?  Thanks.

    Side car for FJR

    Rent a side-car set up for a month or so, hit the road, get it out of your system, save tons of money, and buy yourself a newer FJR, cuz you know you deserve it!  Why not a Honda Trike Goldwing?  That's my plan when I slide toward my 80's.  Thanks for putting your questions out here!

    Funky Shifting

    I've assumed the "clunk" was a designed safety feature to remind me the FJR doesn't do wheelies and also to scare chipmunks outta my way.  Both features I like😕, and this thread!😀

    Solitary Rally in Wisconsin

    Great pics showing your Bike.  Thanks for the easy reading ride report, makes me jealous for Minnesota roads!  The sun has really bleached out that travel bag of yours, or is it because you stash the stinky cheese in it?  Thanks for sharing your good travels.

    Slumming South Park Seattle for Synthetic

    This 13' likes parking nearer to the stash!  And South Park is where to hide out in public.  Speaking of,  a black/grey FJR newer year three times this week transited 14th Ave S. like it's the Taiwanese Straits and I'm the Gomer waving at him!  14th Ave is the short-cut from West Seattle. ...

    I should have mentioned that no FJR or feelings were hurt in the making of this image  from the two bike wreck last Sunday at this Austrian race track.  No feelings wrecked except this guy, and getting the keys taken away:   "The absence follows the suspension of the rider by Yamaha due to the...

    Hwy 20 North cascades

    I read that travelers  eastbound on Hwy 20 have to follow a lead car through smoke and fire areas nearer to Winthrop.  Will WA DOT allow FJRay to be the Marshall of that parade?  Unable to drag advisory link from:    SR 20 North Cascade Highway between milepost 144 and 171 there is a reduced...

    helibars question - tank interference?

    It's worth it to me and my gen 3 for the helibars.  I now have to slide out the main tank bolt to lift the tank up.  Takes about 2 extra minutes. 😀

    Tire Change in Denver

    There doesn't seem to be a Denver contingent; a light scratching of the Forum member chatter from Denver area suggest they each sold their bikes and then their gear.  Retail is funny stupid these days, imho.  A tire, rim, tools and mechanic as dependable as the FJR in my home metro is absent.  I...
