She's a beauty - GLWS!

Just to top up on this, note that a few years back, Two Wheel Obsession published a useful YouTube video on the ABS flush process: Yamaha FJR1300 ABS Manual Flush How To

Hi Gmanhawaii. I have a 2013 (Gen3), and wonder if this seat is expected to fit both Gen4 and Gen3 FJRs? Also, are you able to share a little more detail about the operator seat's foam density? I weigh in at 225 lbs; did you receive any details about the Laam seat build when you bought your...

Gave my Gen 3 a visual inspection, then added stabilizer to a full tank, ran it a few minutes to get it into the injectors. Then I gave her a nice synthetic Rotella T6 5w-40 transfusion + new filter. Tucked her into the side bay of my garage with the battery tender plugged in, and kissed her...

Awesome teaser so far FJReady - you DID hit some awesome roads. Look forward to more details, and some pics when you get a chance. ;)

Yes, inquiring minds need to know!

Welcome to the party!

IMHO, I think you shouldn't be concerned - you've not added a high mileage to that fresh oil. :cool:

Welcome from western Canada!

I also use a set of T connector valve stems on my Gen3, and thus never have to actually mess with my lock-nutted TPMS sensors on the one input. It's a sweet set up - and I've been using a similar approach on both a Gen1 and now this Gen3 - cumulatively for about 8 years now with no regrets.

I second the motion (and would stump for my own well designed FJR t-shirt) if that ever happens here. ;)

Oops - thanks Bounce - will go create that PM now. :rolleyes:

Ok, thanks for the clarification - now that I am finally an annual paying member, when / how will I get mine then? :unsure:

On both my Gen1 and now my Gen3, I've handcrafted a set of AWG 8 guage custom booster cables, using a set of polarized break-away connectors. This allows me to use either: a high current battery pack I carry in my luggage (designed for this purpose, capable of ~60 amps @ 12v I think) OR a...

Hey Cycle, I think I am still unclear about how we actually get our sweaty little hands on these new decals (?). Will they be snail-mailed out to registered forum users?

I had a near identical Gen1 (Old Blue I called her), and though I am thoroughly enjoying my Gen3 right now, I would have happily kept Old Blue if only I had room in my garage. Reliable, fast, and about 90 lbs lighter (!) than my Gen3 I think... GLWS !

Sounds awesome Pilot, enjoy a safe journey.

Dang, I was afraid you may tell me that [weight info]. ;) Sorry, also, which Generation (1, 2, 3, or 4) is this fitting?

Wow, she's a great looking gurl. Nice job protecting her all these years.
