Thought this might be of interest. I've replaced more than one driving light due to mishaps. With the standard L shaped mounts the lights are positioned outboard of the fairing and are usually the first to take a hit anytime the FJR decides to take a nap. When Alex came up with his box design...

Great report Doug and congrats on your excellent finish! :clapping: It was fun talking to you at the start. I admire your enthusiasm and spirit for the sport. Was looking forward to experiencing the dark side in Spartanburg. Next time. Derek

You've got it backwards. You CAN do it, you just need to figure out if you really want to.

The reflector is packed. Should arrive early afternoon Saturday, maybe late morning. I'll look you up as soon as I get there. Derek

He's moving again. :clapping: I'm guessing there was a daylight bonus at Indian Springs he was waiting for and took some much needed rest. Must be a good bonus at Mt. Evans. Iggy's on the way up and Cruzin' is on the way down the Mt. Evan's Scenic Byway.

Dammit! Iggy's SPOT stopped AGAIN...this tme at 3:41 MT this morning. Looks like he was almost to Denver and then doubled back to Idaho Springs. Why would he do that? Some weird timed combo bonus? Was he heading for the barn and decided he had time to bag one more bonus? Did he lose something...

Damn cagers! This doesn't sound good but glad you weren't injured. Not sure that reflector can be easily patched. I've got a headlight assembly that MAY be a little better. It's got three of the four mount points for the front stay broken, and some of the tabs broken, but the reflectors are...

Yeah it looks like it took him about 90 minutes to get in and out. He was 7 miles from the checkpoint at 11:01 so probably make it by 11:08. Hopefully the bonus was worth enough to offset any penalty points. Meanwhile....Cruzin' reached the checkpoint with time to spare. He spent all day riding...

Looks like Iggy's trip to Mesa Verde burned a bunch on time. According to his SPOT, at 10:20 MT he was still 50 miles east of the checkpoint in Bluff. I believe the checkpoint opens at 11:00 MT. Not sure when/if penalties start but he needs to boogie.

If anyone talks to Matt tell him to reboot his SPOT. Either that or he's stuck in Tonopah.

Hey I won't be in Vegas. You mean you have more than one OLD friend? And what's that white **** all over your Aux cell? Have fun in Vegas...put $25 on red for me.

Java was also a bonus on the 2008 ButtLite. Page 18 or so you'll find my experience with it. Just by luck I got a receipt. ButtLite IIIII report There was an equally challenging fuel receipt at a Motorcycle dealer in Minnesota. The pumps were so old they didn't go up to today's price. So you...

Great report Juice! I felt like I was right there with ya. :clapping:

Nice write-up DaJuice. Felt like I was right there with you. Congrats on your win. :clapping: That Cruzin's a pain now that he's got a decent rally bike. :rolleyes:

So who won? Geez the rally ended a whole 15 minutes ago. Come on. Did Brandt make it back before being time-barred? Looked close on the spot page. More importantly, who ended up with the new tires?

Good Luck from Duluth! :)

Can't wait. 2 days of having more fun than should be allowed with your clothes on.

Dammit! I received the same cacellation email yesterday. And it would have looked so good on my multi-colored '87 KLR.

What I meant was try varying your tire pressure to see if that helps reduce the vibration. If the vibrations is a result of several factors, changing one slightly may help.

There is a similar problem described in this month's Cycle World. 2009 model with excessive vibration, right mirror blurry, riders right hand going numb. There's been numerous reports of buzziness and some folks have a problem with the particular frequency the FJR generates, but maybe this is...
