    Feels like my FJR is jumping a cog in 2nd gear

    Wow, that's weird! Has this bike had all it's recalls done, especially the throttle position sensor recall? Does it have a Power commander? Don't sound like a tranny thing to me, more an electronics thing.

    PCV Power Commander V on '13?

    Yo Funkay, I gotz noth'in to ad but from what I've read the '06s and '07s had the herky-jerkyest throttle of all years. Glad ta see yer roll'in up sum miles on that thing. ;)

    Programming a spare key for a 2007 AE. Any one got instructions?

    I have a red GIVI key. Far as I know, FJRs don't have FOBs not even Canadian FJRs. Got my '07 AE key make at True Value.

    Clutch lever pressure

    I had sum cheap, Chinese levers that did this, 'n I couldn't get a proper bleed. Got rid of 'em, 'n went back to well lubricated stock levers.

    Lowering a 2014 FJR with T-REX lowering links

    Really? I got stiffer springs, 'n Soupys raising links, 'n I'm still scrape'in the peg feelers! Yes, it's the width mor than the height. I'm assuming you already have the seat in the lower positron? A vertically challenged friend told me he removed the rubber grommets from the seat, lowered it...

    Smell / Hot Engine or Rubber type smell

    Mine always stinks after ride'in in the rain, even after installing a fenda extenda. If ya ride through pine needles, it's smell like burn'in pine needles; purdie cool actually. If'n the tech said it's OK, it's prolly OK. Dunno why hew said they run hot, that don't sound right? Thanks Ross

    Norcal travel question

    Another option would be to take 36 to 89, stay on 89 down to Truckee, then 80 to Auburn 'n spend the night there? (Unless you already have reservations at Williams?)

    Norcal travel question

    Think it's 'bout 6 one way, half dozen the other. 32s nice, if'n you never dun it, I'd recommend it. Butt, you'll have to ride through Chico, 'n deal w/ sum traffic. If'n ya do 70, you can avoid the traffic. If'n you do 70, try this...
