    Drivetrain lack of lubrication

    So why does this site tell people to check it and lube?? From the "06-012 BIn O Facts" "Things to check at 600 Miles": "Drive shaft spline, most have insufficient moly"

    New FJR Owner: What happens when you lowside/washout?

    Give yourself time to get used to the bike. Maybe go to a large parking lot that's part empty and practice some maneuvers and turns and get a feel for it. BTW......You're a mountain biker living in OHIO?? That has to be rough!!! LOL

    Drivetrain lack of lubrication

    Every time this is found though people should call Yamaha corp and complain. Its ******** that many come from the factory with little or NO lube. I don't think its called for in the manual to check it so many riders are probably unaware and the corrosion could cause a problem over time. Its...

    Motel suggestions for 60+ day ride around the country?

    Yeah I stopped by her cycle shop in Kernville and said "Hello" last October.

    Motel suggestions for 60+ day ride around the country?

    Kern Lodge is nice I stay there every October with a group of riders but it's $100.00 a night. Not really budget friendly.

    2014 Stanley Cup Playoffs!

    You think hockey players are whiners? they make the least $$$$ of the major pro sports. What do you think of NBA players?? I think they whine a lot! Always currently. There are a lot more teams now.

    2014 Stanley Cup Playoffs!

    It's one of the hardest championships to win in pro sports, you need 16 games to win Lord Stanleys Cup.

    Yamaha will change the world, well, the sport motorcycle world that is.

    There's a 61 page thread on that FZ09 Forum about hundreds of bikes with bad CCT's. You would think Mama Yamaha would have had that figured out from the FJR's already! Sheesh!

    Fixed a bunch of complaints about my FJR.

    Nice lookin NINJA1000. I rode a 2011 just like that before I bought my FJR back in February 2013. Only had 1,500 miles on it. I liked the bike but it was a little too cramped feeling for me AND it had BAD vibes as soon as I hit 75/80MPH. I felt it severe through the footpegs, seat and the...

    What did you do to your FJR today?

    Looks good Zilla! Nice thing about spraying a piece like that is you don't have to worry about stretching something to make all the curves.

    2014 Stanley Cup Playoffs!

    Pretend sport??? Zilla you've obviously never seen a live game! I figured a guy like you would love a rough and tumble sport like NHL Hockey?? I went to a game a couple years ago and sat 2 rows from the glass. I was amazed at how fast the guys could stop/start/ on those skates......a few...

    Large Boot Ergonomics

    Ah...well then I agree it's redundant.

    Large Boot Ergonomics

    Huh? Is that a joke? If you remove that peg, how do you upshift/downshift??

    Large Boot Ergonomics

    I'm sure BOUNCE has a medical source that can make your feet smaller like the guy who needed his legs extended to be taller.

    Inconsistent idle

    How about trying some fuel system cleaner? Try adding a little CHEVRON with TECHRON fuel system cleaner in a couple tanks and see if it helps. I was having a little stumbling/hesitation when taking off after starting sometimes and I used a half a bottle of TECHRON in a tank of fuel.......has...
