    Scala Rider

    I definitely regret getting the G4. Range is rated at 1600 meters, but my best test with line of sight was 950 meters. Well short of spec. The audio quality is actually pretty good. I've talked to people while riding down the highway and they didn't know I was riding my bike. They said it...

    15 Miles

    I'm jealous. My bike has 1 mile on it and thats only cause I ran it on its center stand. We had amazing weather here Friday and the roads were all clear, but my bike was in pieces. Now I got it back together and its -25C outside and a ton of fresh snow on the ground. I just can't catch a...

    Accessed diag screen, can I hurt anything in there?

    So you're saying all PDF's out there are pirated? Caused I assumed when I bought it, it was legit. When I bought my FZ1, the previous owner included a service manual on PDF that was very similar to the FJR manual. And I already did use the search. Nothing about codes. How many pages is the FSM?

    FJR specs?

    I guess at 2 AM my eyes don't work so good.

    FJR specs?

    Those are really good numbers. Is your bike stock?

    Accessed diag screen, can I hurt anything in there?

    I have the FSM pdf, but I don't seem to see any of these codes listed in there. What area of the FSM are they in?

    PCIII with stock mufflers?

    Couldn't you just zero out the tune inside the PC III? That would put it back to stock and you could keep it connected. Hopefully theres a way to upload the file first though.

    FZ-1 for sport touring

    I have a FZ1 and it is the reason I got into sport touring. The last two years I did 3500 kms + over 7 days and loved it. I have SW Motech side racks and a home made top rack. I only have 2 givi bags which I use on the long trips and I use only 1 positioned on the top rack for day trips. The...

    My header is so hot it GLOWS RED...

    There wasn't 4 other threads about this subject when I looked. But I guess if I were in your shoes I could try the search 4 or 5 times in different ways until I found a combination that showed results right off the bat, and conveniently post a response saying "I found it right away". And if...

    My header is so hot it GLOWS RED...

    So Puppychow and RadioHowie do a search what do they find? One, count em one entry! Not 5, not 10, but one. So this post was so "never ending" and "recurring" that it only shows 1 other relavant post on the first 3 pages. Wow, that definitely constitutes "recuring" and "never ending". OMG...

    Finally picked up my new FJR

    Lots of bluetooths to choose from. I have a Garmin Zumo 660 with the Scala Rider G4. The combination of the two is incredibly buggy. They just don't play well together. Especially when you throw another intercom to talk to on the road. Most of the bugs I think are the Scala's. I would...

    The search on this forum really SUCKs. How is this post "pointless"?

    My header is so hot it GLOWS RED...

    I just bought a new 2009 and I was just idling it in the garage tonight. AFter getting it upto operating temperature I thought I'd rev it a bit keeping in mind I'm still in the break in stage. So I slowly ramped it up to 4K RPM and held it there for about 5 seconds and let off on the throttle...

    Bag Liners

    Finally, I'm in!

    I can totally relate. I started looking at the FJR about a year ago and its been pure torcher not having one. I just picked up my new 2009 last weekend. Unfortunately it was about -20 C the day I picked it up so I couldn't ride it home. But I've been in the garage drooling over it since I...

    Anyone tried or use Howard Leight Pilot ear plugs?

    I should try these. I've been trying to find ear plugs that don't attenuate too much. The Walmart ones at 32 attenuate too much. I have speakers in the helmet so I need to be able to hear the music as well as attenuate some of the outside noise.

    2010 FJR Pricing

    These dealerships should give you a commission. LOL. I'm going down to see Wayne this weekend.

    Whats Your Christmas Farkle?

    My Christmas farkle is a new 2009 FJR1300. O ya baby. My first FJR. My list of future farkles (in order of importance to me) for the FJR include: - heated Yamaha grips - replace the BT021 with PR2's. - stem nut with threads to connect RAM ball - top case plate (probably SW Motech) to...
