OK I was a bonehead . Had the thing on the ceneter stand. I took it for a ride :bike: and all is good in Feejer land :drinks: . I get a little anxious sometimes :wacko: .

I reoved the back tire to lubricate the drive shaft. Put everything back togeter made sure I oriented the sensor ring and the brake calliber the way it showed on the diagram. I checked the magnet ring to make sure that no lube was on it or the ring or the sensor ring. Any ideas or am I doing...

inobeam I have not seen Radiohowie, well I ride a 2nd gen. He had some sort of meet but it was for gen 1. There are a lot of bikes here on the weekend and I have seen a couple of Feejers. There is someone with a 06 but have not been able make contact. I would like to meet some fellow FJR...

Haven't harrased the manatees lol. They are pretty cool to see, well not that much to look at I think they look like a slow foating blob :blink: . I am not sure why the thermostat gave out, I haven't had a leak and did not have to add fluid. When I took the old one out I found it locked in a...

:D

I just changed the thermostat and found that it did not close all the way due to corrosion. I think it was due to my lack of coolant change. I went by the 2 year coolant change recommendation (the little booklet) and not by the yearly change intervall recommended by the forum. The problem was...

A woman was in bed with her lover when she heard her husband opening the front door. 'Hurry,' she said, 'stand in the corner.' She rubbed baby oil all over him, then dusted him with talcum powder. 'Don't move until I tell you,' she said. 'Pretend you're a statue.' 'What's this?' the...

George Bush and Barack Obama somehow ended up at the same barber shop. As they sat there, each being worked on by a different barber, not a word was spoken. The barbers were even afraid to start a conversation, for fear it would turn to politics. As the barbers finished their shaves, the one...

:lol: That is funny

We are making plans. This would be our first meet :yahoo: .

On my 08 I have noticed that it ran one bar higher this summer. I initially was not overly concerned because it was a very hot summer with temps in the 100's . But now that it is cooler the bike is slow to warm up. I would let it warm up to 2 or 3 bars in the garage then go. Once on the road the...

I want a fridge like that. Now that is some good beer.

I would be interested in a Tech day, I am over due to check the shims.

Very nice. I think that 08 looks great.

I got the heat covered too. I live in Florida and am riding in 110 degreee weather right now, and while I am in bumper to bumper traffic, the bike does get HOT. I was under the impression that corrosion would cause the "spider" failure. That is why I mentioned the rides in the rain. The FJR...

Got 39,000 miles on the 08 and no spider issues so far. All the long trips where made when it was raining ( pure luck :rolleyes: ). My wifes 07 does seems faster, she also gets better mpg. On our last trip she got and average of 50 mpg while I got 48.8.

That was great. Had coffee coming out of my nose.

Thank you all for the info. This is what I got from Starcom on my second and not so nice e-mail........ !0 is the unit connected directly to the battery? If not it could be resistance build up on the fuse unit which could reduce current to the unit. Of course you can return the unit for...

We bought 2 StarCom units about one and half years ago. We both have FJRs and ride rarely 2 up. The units came with radios that where useless, ie we could not hear each other if we where farther than 20 feet appart and when traveling we could be no farther than 10 feet appart. Jeff suggested...

I rode with a Stich Roadcrafter suit for a long time but it is way too hot in the summer. The velcro on the stich suit tends to wear out quickly for the price of the suit ( at least I think so). Got the Cycleport gear this spring and have ridden about 5,000 miles in it. Got the GP2 air Kevlar...
