    2010 or 2012?

    2010 $11,999 2012 $13,888 Two lowest prices I found with a quick check on cycletrader. Definitely worth doing some further research.

    Side Stand Options when Lowering the FJR

    TXFJR, no, I did not heat it to glowing red. My son whose in tool&die heated the stand until it changed colour, not red, then we set to pounding out the curve and then changing the foot angle. One more note, we also ground off the ball/stick used for lowering the stand. To me it was a pain in...

    Side Stand Options when Lowering the FJR

    TXFJR, it is very easy to remove the stand, first the springs then the bolt. The torch I used was the MAPP gas torch sold at home depot as well as other hardware stores. Here is a link to the one I used. My link Heavy duty gloves for the heat and the top of a large vise for the anvil.

    Side Stand Options when Lowering the FJR

    Only a word of caution. I was going to order the adjustable sidestand until Soupy's advised me the footprint size was taken from a 600RR. Small footprint, heavy bike, made the decision for me. I went with the adjustment I outlined above. Works great! Quote from Soupy's Hello john. Our...

    Side Stand Options when Lowering the FJR

    No cutting, I took a different approach. The bike is lowered with Koubalinks and the front forks raised but rather then cutting the kickstand I used a heating torch and a ballpeen hammer to straighten the lower curvature and change the foot angle. Worked out perfect. Straightening moved the foot...

    Sliders - To cut or not to cut?

    I run the R&G race sliders which require you to cut a hole in the fairing. At the time they were recognized as one of the best, I believe they still are. R&G Installed
