    Thank you for the links! Ya know, I just had the lower fairings off and had a time getting the R/H side back on. I'll pull it again and, check the wire connections on the 'lower coil' tomorrow. Which coil is the (1) and (4) coil? The upper or, lower? Jim

    Fault Code #33

    It started today while on an EZ ride. First just a stumble while accelerating out of corners. Felt like a fuel problem. 57K miles on bike. But with a half tank of fuel that didnt make sense. I kept riding then the stumble came back. Between 3-6,000 RPM. Still felt like fuel. Then the yellow...

    Havoline Dex-Cool?

    I was just on www.FJRTech.com I'm wanting to change my FJR's coolant. 'Warchild' is recommending 'Havoline Dex-Cool' for a coolant. I checked at Wal-Mart, Auto Zone and, O'Rileys. None of these places stock it. What else can I use?

    XM Radio for the FJR?

    Awsome! Thank you for the help! The HD XM radio looks like the ticket. I'm going to run the Onyx until I can afford the HD/XM! I wonder why the HD/XM's are such a secret? They look like a great way to add XM to any bike.
