    What did you do to your FJR today?

    Celebrated Canada's Election day with a couple-three hour ride around the 'hood. 1. The FJR is a blast in third @ redline-ish 2. Rain held off until 20 minutes after I parked it 3. Still lots of bugs out there

    Cager has been charged and arrested Reading through the fb postings, it seems like Eric and Debra, (the motorcyclist and his lady), are getting a lot of support from the motorcyclist community!

    Callous driver takes out two people... "I don't care"

    Guy must be a wasp magnet.. Although this wasn't their fault, imo they would have fared much better with ATGATT

    Callous driver takes out two people... "I don't care"

    So this unspeakably callous f-tard repeatedly claims he 'doesn't care' that he deliberately nearly kills two people, but apparently cares about someone attempting to pass him. His moral compass is seriously messed up. Hope he is charged and sentenced to the fullest extent, and that his driving...

    Upgraded from Windows 7 to Windows 10

    Lack of Aperture, among other things, is a deal-killer for me. Mavericks still does all I require.

    It's NOT preload!

    Can I please have more hot sauce for my BBQ ribs?

    Pulled my clutch out this morning

    Clutch soak is often a solution to shifting problems, but also keep in mind the FJR's clutch is hydraulically actuated, so the fluid must be changed out regularly, with no air bubbles in the line. Also, shifting the yamaha shaft drive bikes requires a bit of finesse, as the shaft tends to load...

    My '03 may have seen her last miles.

    Some borescoping prior to disassembly may be interesting.

    Media Player (Solved!)

    Thanks for the suggestions all! Those things are very cool, but I chose to solve the problem using a 35' High quality HDMI cable. Got one on Amazon for under $30 CDN, shipped. Local shop wanted $100, which is partly why I started looking for a media player thing as a cheaper alternative...

    Say it ain't so, Hugh!

    Kinda sad that society continues to consider nudity equivalent to ****ography.

    Media Player (Solved!)

    Thanks Warpdrv. Those tons of boxes on amazon are why I'm asking here in case someone else has any recommendations or warnings. Something like this would do nicely, I'm thinking. But hoping to find a device that I can stream via my LAN or WLAN from my mbp and iMac. It would be convenient for...

    Low Speed Practice Range

    Very cool, thanks! Just avoid target fixating on those close-in dots, or you'll get a real close up! Since I park the FJR for a few, (far too many!_), months I make a point of practicing the slow speed/parking lot stuff each spring. The route through the tree infested yard to get to the...

    Best glue for gluing plastic to metal?

    Never felt the need for fork braces on this bike. I recall reading somewhere that the middle bushing in the Gen II is supposed to reduce fork flex sufficiently, whereas some who have installed one on a Gen I report satisfactory results. You're right that the FJR stock setup provides pretty...
