I love the orange, the rest of the color scheme is okay. She is dreaming on the price. Bought my 06 with 4K miles for $6400 back in August. I could see 8K maybe but 10K she is dreaming. Another great lesson about how you never get the money back that you put into your bike.

Almost everyone has heard of it but I don't see many bikes on the road using it. Anytime I approach an intersection with a cage on one side I do this. The SMIDSY, hope the link works.

Dibs on the Sargent front, PM sent

I have a copy of Fred's RDCUA TBS procedure. I know where the vacuum take off points are and where the air bypass screws are but on a Gen II where are the butterfly valve screws? Anyone with a pic or a link to a pic? Are they in the same location on a Gen I vs Gen II because Fred has pictures...

SilverStar H4s seem like a good and simple option but have people had problems with them in the FJR? I had them in my V-strom and they worked great, much better light.

Whats the general consensus on doing a TBS after installing the cover plates. I'm sure people would say you might as well while you are there, but I have never done a TBS and would need to buy a sync tool. Plus, I just had my mechanic do one 500 miles ago. If it needs to be done then I will...

Yup

Is this the LED dimmer with high beam bypass from ADVmonster?

Does RDL make a seat without those damn wings coming off of it? Can you slide over the edge of the seat when your hauling *** in the corners?

Always send a chill down my spine to read things like this. Could happen to anybody. Hope your friend recovers fully. 3 bikes riding together and the SUV still never saw you guys. Terrible.

I thought wrecking on my 06 V-Strom in August was the worst thing that could happen, then I got my FJR. Woo-hoo! Glad you guys are okay. Crashing on a motorcycle can really shake a person. I had Progressive as well. They treated me well. I got the value of the bike plus $3000 for farkles...

I was lucky enough to jump on the chance when Bill listed his set of frame sliders with Leo Drolet highway pegs. Went for a ride today to give em a test. THEY ARE AWESOME!!! Perfect location. Comfortable. Easy to find. Great price. I don't get it, whats the catch? Am I missing something...

You are getting bent over. Hopefully you don't have Progressive because if you don't, you should. They gave me $3000 over blue book for my bike after I wrecked to cover gear and farkles. My current 06 FJR is $300 per year, $100 decuctible.

PM sent, I want them

Having just come for a V-strom I can comment on egos. WAY more room on a V-strom. I'm 6'3" and the FJR is tight compared to a Strom. It's not unreasonable but it is tight. I bought the FJR because I wanted a sportier bike and that's exactly what I got. I love it! But I do miss the comfort...

It worked! It worked! I started with a small drill bit and worked my way up. I thought I would be able to break the head off the screw and go from there, but after I drilled out the center, I grabbed it with a pair of needle nose and the screw came loose. Thank God. The last thing I wanted...

I put on a set of 2 bros slip ons today. I went to remove the rear cover to install one of the P1X tips and one of the torx screw heads stripped out! It is totally stripped out. Any ideas? Is there a shop I could take it to that might be able to get it out? Do I dare try to use a drill bit...

Thanks everyone for the tips. I love these kind of forums. Mcatrophy was right on the money. Got the bike up to about 10 or 15 miles an hour, slammed on the rear brake as hard as I could and the ABS kicked in! Thank God. That sounds like an expensive fix. Next step will be to bleed the...
