    Michelin Road 5 vs Road 5 GT

    On the positive side, the compound on the sidewall of the rear of the R5 is incredibly sticky. Literally.

    Michelin Road 5 vs Road 5 GT

    FWIW, I am 1300 miles in on a set of R5s, and the front has already cupped so that any high speed runs create nearly ultra-sonic vibrations. Not acceptable. I'm heavier, at 214#, and ride mostly twisties aggressively. I will be going to a Bridgestone front very soon (in the next 1500 miles or...

    Attention All FJR AE Owners and Prospective Buyers

    """Hello Yamaha Motors, I am writing to tell you how much I enjoy the YCCS system on my 2008 FJR1300AE. I have ridden this motorcycle for 63,000 miles and have never wished to have a manual clutch ever again. If a paddle shifter is good enough for F1 drivers, it’s good for me too! Whether it...

    Michelin PR5

    It amazes me the difference rider weight makes in tire wear, but I guess it shouldn't. I'm 6'2" and front and rear are toast at 8k.

    Michelin PR5

    Running them now. Despite the Nor'easters we've had up here in New England, I've gotten 2 rides in on my 110 mile TT loop. I didn't push them as they are brand new and it's no warmer than 46 degrees. Besides that new tire dancing you get from a nice new tire, I can't at this point provide any...

    Throttlemeister Customer Service A++

    The powder coating on my left Throttlemeister bar end peeled off, while the throttle side stayed perfectly intact. I emailed the mfr. with pics of each side to ask if I could send it to him for recoating (it's 6 years old). He replied with: "Holy moly. Whats your address. I'll send you a new...

    dct. vs AE Is it worth the new technolgy.

    If paddles are for sissies then every F1 driver is wearing a g-string under his Nomex suit. AE FTW!

    Another Track Day

    Have you considered riding in one of Tony's Non-Sportbike Track Days. STs like the FJR get to ride in the top group and you can really let loose. https://www.newenglandriders.org/ promotes them heavily and Ken does a lot of training.

    Sorry Boss, I'm going...

    I think "owner's son said" kind of tells a lot of the story. I've only met a few "owner's sons" who didn't need a well aimed kick. Most have no idea what it means to work for a living, after their dad (or mom) fought tooth and nail to build something from nothing.
