    Wiring for Trickle Charger and Auxiliary Power

    Is it the one with ring lugs at one end, an SAE connector at the other, and an inline fuse? As long as you replace the inline fuse with one that's adequate for the Slime Pump (probably 15 Amps), it's fine. The wire is heavy enough to handle the current. And you can still use the same pigtail to...

    If I knew that I could pay more for stuff in Canada, I would have moved there years ago.

    Wiring for Trickle Charger and Auxiliary Power

    Your tire pump (compressor) will require a 15 Amp fuse. Your trickle charger (battery tender) won't care so much. I have had such a pigtail on my '06 and '08. The '06 was terminated in a Gerbing heated gear connector. That one required an adapter to go to an SAE quick connect for the compressor...

    Florida's tallest waterfall

    I would have thought that the tallest waterfall in Florida was a water slide at Disney World. I think the highest point in Florida is a building in Miami. When I went to school in Lawrence, KS, there was a man made ski hill out east of town.

    Battery replacement

    I have the Deltran Jr. The battery and tender are both at about 50 F right now because they're both in the garage. The charger is always indoors. The bike is mostly outdoors, sometimes indoors. I have a Japanese, sealed, probably OEM and probably original to my 2006 that was working perfectly...

    Sold FREE RAM X-Grip

    FREE RAM X-Grip, Kindle or larger tablet size, 1" ball. I used this to mount a Kindle for navigation back in the day but I'm on to higher-tech things. I will ship it to you in the lower 48 via USPS in one of their fixed-rate packages if I can find one that fits. They're cheap. Otherwise I'll...

    Battery replacement

    I had the battery compartment (which was designed by sadistic midgets) opened to access the ABS diagnostic connector for the bi-annual clutch and brake bleed. I also ordered a new battery because I didn't know the history of the battery that came in the bike when I bought it and someone gave me...

    What did you do to your FJR today?

    Yahoo, except for the work part.

    Would you pay the Dealer or Replace ABS brake lines Yourself?

    If it ain't Dutch, it ain't much.

    BrakeAway Throttle lock and heated grips??

    The throttle locks made by NinWelly and XiTomer are also good options. I eventually bought the XiTomer from eBay. That thread appears here.

    NinWelly (XiTomer) throttle lock

    There was, in fact, a polarity. It was incredibly easy to install. There was a machined aluminum spacer which, after looking at the existing bar end, obviously went on one way. Maybe it flips over for other fitments (YZF-R1, YZF-R6). There are two friction washers which, according to a photo...

    NinWelly (XiTomer) throttle lock

    As it turns out, the ones on eBay are not NinWelly like the ones on Amazon. The ones on eBay are made by a company called XiTomer. On their website they show some photos with a small set screw like on a Kaoko but the actual part doesn't have that. And on the manufacturer's or distributor's...

    Anyone in Upstate NY area? ...with an aftermarket seat?

    I think that would be a "buttload" of money in this case.
