    That'd been my guess too, but who knows........I've been told that most all college students majoring in Computer science have to take a course in computer hacking, meaning most all of them are accomplished hackers, and we wonder where all these hacker come from? Again, my guess is the admins...

    Helmet speakers?

    I bought two Arai Profile helmets with built in speakers and mics from J&M Corp for my wife and I to use......I got the cord that goes from the helmet to the Integrar IV with a volume adjustment knob on it, so either of us can change the volume to his or her liking on the go. I'd think they'd...

    To heck with learning discipline, LEARN HOW THE HIGH PERFORMANCE aspect of riding......One of the biggest problems in overcoming your riding capabilities is unlearning discipline...in otherwords, overcoming your fear...... Buy this book, read it, study it, read it again, study it again, do all...

    Anyone install a sound system on an 06 yet?

    You get your date on the back of an FJR and put a Arai Helmet with built in Speakers from J&M Corporation on both your heads, sorry not J&M (I was thinking scotch when I typed that) https://www.jmcorp.com/....and hit the back road twistes heading out to the lake around sundown to dig some BBQ...

    How fast & smooth does the AE shift ?

    What's the matter with you goffie SOBs? I can't even make a little joke without all of you going ballistic.....Besides, my 4th grade teacher used to tell us....THE GUILTY DOG ALWAYS BARKS.....and it obviously still holds true till this day... Now go BARK AT YOUR WIFE or something!!!!

    How fast & smooth does the AE shift ?

    I gonna plead the 5th on this shift deal,,,,,mainly cause I've forgotten to downshift approaching a stop......but I know I can go into neutral from first while stopped or visa versa.....So I would imagine I can shift thru all the gears while shitting still.........and I mean sitting...

    Decisions Decisions

    Yes, a lot of people do get hurt cause they ride beyond their capabilities....many think riding is a GODGIVEN talent...well, IT AIN'T........meaning most riders aren't the least bit capable of handling an emergency situationl!!! I suggest you immediately order the book TOTAL CONTROL by Lee...

    How fast & smooth does the AE shift ?

    If we're both hitting the RED, I don't think so.........last time I looked, hitting 9,000 RPM in 4th means your going a hell of lot than faster than a bike hitting 9,000 in 3rd....although I haven't ridden an FJRA.....But I doubt anything has changed...
