    Speaker ear plugs for motorcycles

    I have a Sena SMH10 used with in helmet speakers. I wear medium dampening ear plugs. Works well. I use to use earbuds. Had a set of Klipsch earbuds I really liked. The only issue I had is the left one would eventually fall out on long rides. Not an issue with an half helmet, but...

    Is Cruise Control Consistent

    I installed the Rostra Universal Cruise Control on my 10 FJR and have been very very happy with it. Here is my write up. https://www.fjrforum....+rostra +cruise It worked well right out of the box. I was very methodical about it, all of the wiring connections are soldered. I worked through...

    Heated Gear - Made the leap

    Someday, I'll hop on this band wagon. I am good to about 40°F, then I start driving the truck. As I get older I dislike cold more. I do have heated grips, first mod I do to all my bikes.

    New Car for my kid

    You are way nicer than I plan on being with my three kids. My rents never bought my brother or I a car or paid for school. I tell my kids, much like their old man, to save their pennies, they are on the hook for both, and they have to move out or pay rent after graduating high school.

    PRK Laser Eye Surgery

    Lasik in 2012. Worth every single penny. The place I went to only offered all the bells and whistles. I now have better than 20/20 vision in both eyes. Before, I would trip over my contacts if I dropped one.

    660 Garmin versus 590 or 595 Garmin

    I haven't moved on from the 665 because none of the new garmins support the XM antenna. With weather, traffic, and radio via the antenna, it will be hard to live without tunes. I know there are other ways to skin the cat, but I like being able to control everything via the zumo. The next...

    Calling adventure bike owners

    Due to kids I am down to just the FJR, but I have owned a KTM Adventure 990, and a Super Tenere. Had I to do over again, I would kept the KTM and passed on the Tenere. The Tenere is a fine bike, but it's not nearly as good off pavement as the KTM. The KTM is quirky, maintenance intensive...

    Best oil to stick with for new bike?

    Meh.... I had a 1994 Dodge Caravan, I sold in 2004 with 270,000 miles on the clock, didn't burn any oil, never rebuilt, did the oil changes every 3 to 5K miles using Valvoline conventional. These days with direct injection, variable valve timing, turbo charging. ect. I would trust the...

    Best oil to stick with for new bike?

    Dyna beads?! I am going to give the counter act tempered glass beads a try in my next tire change. I am another Rotella T6 user, I also use it in my 4 stroke lawn equipment. Other than that I recommend extra virgin olive oil. On a note with oils, the base stock is a commodity item, there is...

    Sport/Tour selection

    If it was really a mechanical issue between the sport and tour mode, to be switched while moving, it would have an interlock with the speed single. It's just liability. The differance between the two is throttle response gain. Sport throttle response is much faster than tour.

    Replacement Heated Grips

    I have the oxford adventure grips on my 2010. They work great! I considered the Apollo, as I love their integrated controller, but there just wasn't much info on them as far as reviews. With oxford there was a ton of info out there. I also have had the KTM heated grips on a.... KTM. They...
