    Sold Saddlebag Liners $50 shipped CONUS

    Set of saddlebag liners in very good / near excellent condition. No shoulder straps. These came with the 2013 FJR I bought in late November and I already had an extra set from my 2007 that was wrecked. All zippers work well and zipper pulls are in good shape. Shoulder straps were not with them...

    Aux Fusebox location

    I met a rider at one of the first Void Rallies I rode in who had done something like this to his FJR in case of needing a jump start...

    Aux Fusebox location

    I've mounted mine under the pillion seat. Main reason for this even beyond the space issue being that I only need to pull the pillion seat should I blow a fuse. No point in making it harder to access than necessary.

    Shopping for Seats

    I'm happy with my Laam custom seat as an alternative to Russell. Both of these are true "custom" seats. These are not "off the shelf" aftermarket seat but rather are a set built to your specs based on a stock seat pan. Seth Laam has done my seat twice now. First back in 2013 then more recently...

    hi from pa

    I've run grip puppies on my grips for years. Added thickness and foam to dampen vibration help me a lot. LOL. Owner's manual doesn't show how to do a TBS, that's covered in the service manual because they don't expect the average owner to do it themselves. Most FJR owners are not average. I...

    hi from pa

    If the bike didn't come with the owner's manual Yamaha offers them on their website as a free download. I recommend downloading it to your phone or a tablet where you can easily access it when needed. When bleeding the rear brakes you need to remember they're linked ABS. Bleed the lower screw...

    New (to me) '07

    2007 was my first FJR! Bought a used one with 8600 miles on it in August of 2012 from a Harley dealership where I worked part time. It met an untimely end in September of 2019 in TN due to an inattentive driver. It had just turned 127k that morning. One week to the day later I picked up the 2014...

    hi from pa

    Shortly after I bought my first FJR, a 2007, I attended a Ride to Eat that was organized on this very forum. That's where I met my first Iron Butt Rally finisher and heard tales of long distance rallies and realized it sounded like my sick idea of a good time. My FJRs have both been set up for...

    hi from pa

    I run a heated jacket liner, heated gloves, Clearwater Krista and Darla auxiliary lights, and a GPS doing long distance rallies. Never had an issue with either of my FJRs electrical systems. I ride year round provided the roads are clear and have ridden in single digit temps. Stress less, ride more.

    hi from pa

    There is a thread on here about EOM including reservation info, dates, etc. We typically have up to 70-80 FJRs show up including people from all over the US and some Canadians.

    hi from pa

    @an-guy, not sure exactly where in PA you're located but I'm about 10 minutes south of Harrisburg off I-83. I'm on my second FJR and have about 170k miles on them now so if you need some local help reach out and I'll see what I can do for you. Congrats on the new ride! Check out the EOM thread...
