You bet no problems, at lest not yet. Why, do you no something I don't?? The shop has very responsive for me.

Motor quit at 45 MPH, just stopped. Pulled on to the shoulder, hit the button start button, she spit and sputtered but started. Hit the throttle just clear her out, the check engine light came on, was 300 miles from home in central Iowa with a very concerned look on my face. Did a fault check...

Missed another one, I just don't look at this site enough. Hope all is well with every one. Who had the most miles in the group and what year?

Thanks for the input.

Looking for some sound reasoning about breaks and the noise you might hear from them. When the brakes on the cage go bad there’s no question about it. What am looking for is a measurement of good, bad and change pad now. Is the sound of your brake’s a tell tail sound? There appears to be two...

I’ve been reading this site since I was a 04 waiter and I am all ways amused by the witty repartee, it is all way a pleaser to read the responses by such a talented bunch of riders.. Meet you on the road some were..

I was told that at 140 MPH there is only 1/4 inch of rubber on the road. I thought my BS meter was going off, But I don’t know for sure, so I asked even with Z rated tires? Was told yes. What can this group contribute so I may sound like I know what am talking about.

Lets see, I just skimmed the posts and it looks like a bunch of Avon’s and only one Michelin?? Am I reading to much into this?

Ya.. well am going home and chip ice off my driveway, that’s why were so healthy up here, the cold freezes all the nasty bugs out and we have to work all the time to stay warm. Did you know wood heats you four times? when you cut it, pick it up, stack it, carry it in the house and through it in...

It’s nice to have a solid four seasons but when you own an FJR the winters get long, there talking forty’s next week though. You walk past your ride setting there all covered on the stand looking dejected, it’s like kicking your dog by accident you tell him you didn’t mean it but you still get...

I‘ve seen it my nightmares…

Well it's snowing again, summer doesn’t last long in January. I didn't believe it either I only got a hundred miles on it before the snow came again but it ran great. I still think I have at least two things going on. I’ve done the TPS check and the numbers are perfectly liner.

It is now above 40deg F in Minnesooota, went and picked up my ride from the shop it's been at since Thanksgiving for surging. The surge has been posted forever but I have a different fix. It appears that my kickstand switch was the problem. I don’t have many miles on it yet and it can’t get...

They always say its colder then hell outside, I don't get it. The lakes are frozen the ducks are gone and I can't ride my scooter with out layers and layers of clothing?? Where is the deductive reasoning for living in such a place? It could be when that 130 HP skid mobile comes out of the shed...

Maks sense to me I'll give it a try. I dont agree with the tech but I will let him do his thing when the weather turns bad. the first part of Dec.

Had an on going problem with surging, the TPS was blamed but after pulling up error screen several times, it all ways came up fault 16 (I think) maybe 17, the kick stand switch. The only time it will act up is when I have ridden a long ways or it hot out side. It’s going in the shop the first...

Radman you have nads of steel!!! you know after 100 MPH there is no more license for six months, I’ll push but stop around 90 the fun gets to serious after that. Looks like were done for a while after today Purveyor of correct opinions and advice since 1954

Of course it was only 24 degs F. I did see two other riders in my inward commute and one was a 04 FJR we are a hardy bunch! The F must stand for frosty?? I will be riding until the SNOW comes, then the Skidoo comes out. One thing nice about the sled, when you fall off your low to the ground and...

In need of help again. Came home from work put the kickstand down, it was in gear so the engine stopped (bad habit I have) only this time I for got to turn the key off. Neighbors were there started talking any way, went to get back on after about an hour to an hour and a half. The battery was...

Thanks all, I’ve been riding must of the week end so I haven’t been on line, Thanks again Alan, we hooked up earlier. I now have just under 30K on her. I’ve had some problems all summer but wouldn’t off it long enough to really check it out. The worst one was I dug about three foot trench on...
