    110 Octane Racing Fuel

    An FJR owner near me that I wasn’t aware of, that isn’t a member of FJR Canada on Facebook?!…Thanks for the update, I wasnt aware of the change..damn..that means both bikes are only relying on the 4-6oz of Seafoam in their tanks..fingers crossed!

    110 Octane Racing Fuel

    I fill with Shell Premium which is ethanol free, dump in several ounces of Seafoam, then ride it for 40-50 miles…top up with more Shell Premium, add more Seafoam just because..then hook up the battery tender and cover the bikes up. This works on my ‘17 FJR and on my ‘53 Vincent.

    Headlight Modulator suggestions

    I bought one each of these https://motorcycleinnovations.ca/collections/lighting/products/fenix-cree900-high-intensity-led-lights and mounted them on the crash bars, I put the on/off switch beside the glove box. Because there’s no cut-off I dont use them in town at night.

    No good deed goes

    A mushroom plug if the hole is at right angles to the tread, a sticky string if the hole isnt at a right angle. I carry both, as well as CO2 cartridges and a pump.

    Hello from Minnesota

    Mobil 1 - for motorcycles is a wonderful oil…not to be confused with the Mobil 1 for cars. I’m currently running Lucas Oil 10w-40 for motorcycles, so any oil spec’d for motorcycles will work just fine.
