Thanks FJRB, I purposely designed it so almost anyone with basic tools/skills can make it.For those thinking "no i can't make that" I say "YES YOU CAN". Besides, making the shield to order, would seriously impact on my riding time. lol.

Thanks JamesK, the main reason it's separate is basically it's not needed. The shield itself keeps about 90% of garbage of the relay arm. Shock shield + about 8%. Also if you want the fiddle with the rear shock [Penske] particularly if you're out on the road you can without taking the shield off.

08 REAR SUSPENSION & SHOCK SHIELD SOME TIME AGO I READ ABOUT THE COLLAPSE OF THE REAR SUSPENSION ON AN FJR. IT WAS PROBABLY DUE TO A COMBINATION OF POOR MAINTENANCE AND ROAD CRUD, CAUSING THE BEARINGS IN THE RELAY ARM TO SEIZE. AT THE SAME TIME & BEING ANAL, I WAS PISSED OFF WITH ALL THE...

Err..Sorry about the double nothing posts. Just getting used to the new format!!!! There has been some instances of rear end collapse in the UK. Problem was seized bearings in the relay arm thus loading the arms [dogbones] to a point of breaking. Probably due to lack of maintenance. Since...

Does anyone know if ''just roy'' is still making the steering ring nut socket? I've tried to PM him but his inbox is full. Thanks.

Went for my 3 hour early morning ride today at 5.00am [ usually do this 4/5 times a week ] Very little traffic, dark, mist/fog around the base of the hills, eerie & 3 degrees C . Bloody fantastic. I know what you guys are going through with the heat. If you are having a hot summer we'll...

Wouldn't be a problem for Chuck Norris neither!!!!!! :meh:

From a write up in the AMCN the price............. $300,000. Hell at that price we'll all be ordering one.

Yeah......Sure ...& porkers will fly. :derisive:

Any wonder the gen1 riders have no brains, their balls have been roasted & have dropped off. I recently heard of a new operation where surgeons can transplant balls. gen1 riders start queing up & have the operation. Suddenly a whole new wonderful GEN11 world will open up. :lol:

rawk sawks = good or bad???

I'm tellin ya mate, you put that thing in my ear & your dead meat.

Apart from the Tigers meagre off road capabilities, there is really nothing to compare. The FJR is a full on sports tourer.Performance, handling, comfort for 2 when seats are modified/or aftermarket, etc,etc,etc. As for the Tiger....... well......It's not full on anything. It really doesn't...

I think most blokes that ride [ well certain bikes maybe ] are leaders in one way or another.

"Who cares why a genone is quicker than a Gen11?" What a contradiction!!!!! RH, give up your "radio job" & become a politician. The ease at which you can bend & twist any circumstance & tamper with the truth, makes you the perfect candidate. "Senator Howie" --Yeah, that's got a certain ring to...

WTF. Have you lost your mind? Maybe jumped ship or just siding with RH/RJ?????? :huh:

Here we go ....eruption time again. I reckon if some of the ash from Eyjafjallajokull made it to your country, the GEN2 with its ''advanced engineering'' would just suck it in & treat like a snack.......HHHmmmmm tasty. Long live the GEN2. On the other hand, one sniff of ash, combined with the...

Hey Speed3, I'd reckon your 06 needs a tune & your Dad is faster when it comes to opening the taps. Experience counts. By the way, even if their was the remote possibility & I mean a 1 in a billion chance the 04 was slightly faster, don't let RJ or RH get wind of this. The crap will just...

200MPH wearing that pudding basin I think not. Would have torn his head off.

With aftermarket performance mods & top notch after market suspension, the FJR is no slouch. I come from a racing background & the guys I ride with [late model sportsbikes & no racing background] are simply amazed by the FJRs capabilities. I can hang with them, but It's slightly hard work. On...
