And just in case two fall through, I may have sitting one my bench.....

That is why we have 3lb hammers!

I currently have 52K on my bike. Picked it up with 33K on the clock last year. Many years ago when I was 18 I got bored over the winter so I tore my 650 special apart, rebuilt the engine, shaved 30 thousands off the head, ported and polished the head, farkled it out and put a custom paint job on...

I will be checking my valves in the next month or two. My first time doing it on the FJR. Have done it before on mechanical valves, not one with shims so this will be a new procedure. I need to look for the dot on my CCT as it is making noise. Will probably change it out when I have it open for...

It is normal to have a little wiggle in the cases.

Great guy from what I have read in his messages on the forum. Praying everything turns out well for him and his family.

let us know how this goes. I have been following this for a while and I need resolution!!! Dang cliff hangers.....

Enjoyed the video. Hits the mark.....

I added a powerlet to my D panel, wired directly to the battery. Use it mainly for my phone/GPS. More expensive but it does not vibrate out like a car cigarette connector can.

Congrats on the new bike! I am beginning to feel alone with my Gen 1 bike and all the new gen 3s out there. At least Raquel still looks great and is paid for, lol.

I ride with the motoport gear. Had a tourmaster but it did not hold up when crash tested. The motoport pants handled the abuse without a mark on them after washing. So I replaced the tourmaster with the mesh Kevlar from motoport. It is out of your $300 budget but worth every penny when you go down.

I ordered the Sena 20s after much review and reading your comments. Waiting for them to arrive now!

If the steering tool passes again I will take it!

I am watching this thread because I get the slow starter spin sometimes when my engine is hot. Battery age is not known as I bought the bike last year but the voltage reads 12.79. That appears to be a good battery so far. I have wondered if it is an electrical connection which is expanding with...

I made the same setup last year and have used it each time I raise the front end. It works well for me. Made one mistake when I made the black pipe rack to support the bike. went by memory while at home depot and I got all the pieces but in 1/2 inch diameter instead of the 3/4 inch. It flexes...

I had no need for one in the past but now I have lady who is learning to ride pillion with me. Now I am learning about the intercom systems out there. My research reveals Cardo and Sena to be the best ones out there. Sena 20s has good reviews and I can get a good deal from our forumites. The...

I would agree with gripping the bar to hard. However it is something I concentrate on not doing, plus it happens with driving the cage. Hate to think it is CTS but my dad had it and went through surgery for it at this age...... It is not going to prevent me from riding though! I will get a side...

I have read many posts on the aftermarket seats for the FJR and did not give it much thought beyond picking up a Corbin accessory seat. It was more comfortable than the stock seat so I was happy with it. My bottom would get sore on long rides but I just attributed it as I have been sitting to...

Congrats! Lusty red is a nice color. My 05 will be under my arse for a few more years.

Wow, nice deal for someone. If my 05 was not so nice I would jump on it. So close to me and soooo tempting!
