    08 Drive Shaft Splines and Grease

    I suspect that the highly reported insufficient amount, was mainly on the Gen 1 FJRs. :unsure:

    Premium Gas

    Octane rating is simply based on the fuel's knock tendancy (also called pre-ignition or pressure induced self-ignition). Knock tendancy is based on free radicals present in the fuel prior to ignition. Octane is not a measure of power or energy but a measure of burn. Higher octanes can burn...

    Which shipping is best to Canada from USA

    And don't forget, have the shipper label the parcel with "Motorcycle Parts". Motorcycle parts are not subject to duty when entering Canada.

    You IB'ers have nothing on this guy

    Ya, big friggin deal. The averaged about 65 miles/hour, in a cage, with 2 spare homos to sub in. I did half their distance in half the time by myself, because I had to, with no planning. This isn't even worthy to mention in the same sentence as Iron Butt riding.

    Shovellin' it

    So...I get an actual explanation as to the cause of, excessive exhaust valve guide wear. If you have an 06 or newer, don't worry, nothing to see here. :blink: :rolleyes: :glare: :assassin: That is the customer service answer in the GWN on why it happened. Just thought I would post it...

    Terrible Headshake and the solution

    Aside from tire cupping causing vibes, I have never ever had any headshake in 4 years on the FJR. A "Headshake Issue"...I call ******** on that. Never heard of it aside from the odd person out of 100s or 1000s. Those are probably because of a loose steering head, under inflation, etc etc.

    Terrible Headshake and the solution

    Although they lasted many miles, my stock front tire was a piece of crap (020s). They are prone to scalloping/cupping. Big difference with a pattern like on the PRs or what have you. The tread pattern on those 020s were put on by a monkey on LSD. They are so convoluted they cup faster than...

    Motorcycles top list of military's non-war worries

    I agree 100%. In my mind that is not just a perception, but fact. Some people, no matter how much training, cannot do certain things. "Experience" means nothing if you are doing something complacently, improperly, or incorrectly all these years. I recently rode with an ignoramus who's...

    New suspension settings

    I don't remember this thread when it was first out. It is definitely informative. I set my suspension and wrote it down not long after I got the bike. I am going to try this one. Thanks for the info Jeff. I am going to link this thread to the FAQs thread.

    Stirring Things Up

    The FJR sucks. Don't buy it. Get something else.
  19. FJRottie

    Buying help please? And Ticking?

    I am a Canuck with an 04 and I think mine is a great bike. The 04 you are looking at has low mileage and a few extras. Insurance companies list the 04 at around $11000 right now in Canada. I don't know what banks list it at and I don't have a Blue Book...call your bank and ask if they will give...

    Roadbook Holder - cheap man's GPS

    Dakar riders and the likes use them. It is no GPS replacement when it is just a list/description of turning points that can be scrolled through.
