Amarillo has finally been declared a real city now that our Buc-ees has opened. Pulled in yesterday to see about their gas prices and found this. Hope it stays this way! First time the FJR ever got above regular. Haven't seen 93 octane around here either unless at the Sunoco racing fuel station...

Best motorcycle accessory you can ever buy!

The old saying, Play Stupid Games, Win Stupid Prizes. Evidence against yourself and posted to the public. Don't believe I would have posted that about myself but then again I'm not seeking Youtube revenue. He is about to here from his insurance company I would imagine.

All this talk of Goldwings and not one person has mentioned changing the air filter versus changing on the FJR. Still have my FJR.

The road from Forsyth to the ferry is a great ride!

170/60 on the rear puts the speedo within 1mph accurate at 80mph. Close enough for me.

If you have screw on sensors why does it matter if you screw them onto a straight or angled valve stem? Same weight either way and I'm sure the wheel doesn't know the difference. Just curious.

Most folks go with the angled stems for replacement. Much easier to check pressure and get an air chuck on them. Kurvy girl sells good ones. Have them on all my bikes.

Helmet is ok to carry. If you have tail or back pack be sure there are no tools inside. If you carry tools you will have to check the bag as luggage. Been there done that.

Evidence.

Expect you will be looking for a windscreen soon.

About to become an oil thread I fear.

I didn't buy padding separate. It was included in the price. They do have additional armor that is extra but the stock stuff is pretty good and it conforms to your boney knees and hips every time you put it on. Wash the suit with armor left in. No need to remove the armor. Someone mentioned...

I got the Stretch Street Kevlar Jeans, no back pockets. Jacket is GP2 stretch kevlar in HiVis. It fades pretty quickly when you don't leave it in the closet.

If you consider the cost of skin grafts from clothing that could melt into your skin as you slide along the road then I would recommend this kit: https://www.motoport.com/ Not even close to the $200 you mentioned but if I had bought this first instead of several different suits over the years...

I would say you have an average of Michelin Road 5 GT. 6+4=10 divide by 2=5. Simple math.

My first FJR was on 08. Hope you like it. Heat manageability, +1 for FJR. Gas capacity, +1 for ST. Either one outlasts my bladder. And the FJR does not have the overengineered Secondary Master Cylinder POS. Still wondering why Honda ever came up with that great idea. Affected ST's and...

I find the bike very stable on this type of jack. Used it on my former 2018 Goldwing and very stable there also. You could attach straps to keep it from tipping but I have never felt the need to do that.

I have found this works well. Should have bought one years ago. My bike is currently sitting on mine as the forks were pulled yesterday for new seals.

Apparently my FJR has been having relations with my R/RT and this is the hybrid/******* result:
